>What are some things I should do or avoid when purchasing insurance?

i'm 24, male, reasonably cautious, with a 12 year old sport bike worth 2400 USD and basically no experience

i decided to just get minimum liability and matching underinsured motorist bodily injury coverage until i get a couple years of riding under my belt and i can get better rates. i'm parking it in a garage atm so no theft insurance and comprehensive was too expensive for what the bike is worth.

i started looking at online quotes. a couple of them had fields asking "what insurance did you have before?" with dropdowns to choose from like 15 different companies - why thank you for telling me the names of your competitors, company, I'll be sure to get quotes from them, too.

i went with Nationwide, which was the lowest rate I found. My family has car insurance through USAA, which partners with progressive to sell bike insurance. Might check them out if you have a vet in the family, it was second lowest for me I think. Progressive by itself was also ok. Geico was a bit more than I was expecting. I found lots of smaller places in my area but most of them wanted to quote over the phone, or you submitted a form with your info online and they said they'd call you in a couple of days with a quote. I only checked a couple that way, but I'm a procrastinator so I had to buy insurance FAST to make the deadline for the title transfer form.

Maybe he's trying to talk about the 960? And the Viper ACR?

Also he said if i knew anyone that wanted to buy a car he can hook any one of you up. Just let me know if you are interested. Only thing he said he can't do is any car made past 1992.

Anything pre 1972.

Designs that disregard safety today?

Cant think of anything the throws safety to the wind for fun. If it doesnt meet certain standards then it doesnt get sold.

Its more likely to find manufactures cheating on performance killing emissions standards than to fuck around with safety.

A gt4/alltrac is always worth it if you're actually going to go through the trouble of keeping it road worthy.
If you're looking at a gt model, expect a zippy daily driver. If you're looking at an st, expect a gutless econobox that can be outrun by diesel box trucks

Evo

Import a JDM car, same/more power, and less weight, for like $15k tops.
