Was on the phone with Progressive Insurance... was trying to get some insurance quotes for a few possible rides. Just planning ahead and i live in California by the way
I currently have a zuma 50F so the the first quote i asked about was for the yamaha zuma 125... Without changing anything on the plan other than the bike type, my premium stayed the same. This is because all though the 125 has a larger engine Progressive puts both scooters in the same class... therefore no change in my insurance policy premiums.
however when i was trying to get a quote for the new R3, i gave the agent the cc and the model number... and she found the bike. However the bike came up in the same class as the R1 and R6 and therefore had an outrageous insurance premium...
im going to need a VIN# to get a more accurate quote and if the bike is still classed in the same category as the R1 and R6 we can send the information over to the motorcycle division to get the new bike vetted
I am aware that premiums are a case by case basis depending on the riders history and what not but to classify the new R3 in the same category as the R6 and R1 is historical
Has any one called in to get an insurance quote for the R3 and have you been given a class or an accurate quote?.
