MOTM - Aug '15
Not AAA (in Michigan). Their bike insurance is (was?) totally separate from their home and car insurance. I had those on autopay, and thought the Vulcan was too. When I bought the Ninja and called to switch my insurance over, I was informed that it had been cancelled at some point in the past because I hadn't paid a bill for it. Oh, and also that they just don't insure sportbikes at all.

So I insured the Ninja with Progressive, and have been with them for 10+ years now. They don't do partial-year insurance, but they've said that they take into account the riding season in northern states and adjust their pricing accordingly. I've never had a claim, so I can't say anything about how good their product actually is. But as far as sending away my money every year "for nothing", they seem to do ok.
