$981 for 2 bikes does not sound bad to me at all. What limits are on the policy? What deductibles? Under $1000 for 2 bikes with adequate limits and an accident on your record is not a bad rate.

That is actually pretty damn cheap figuring the Busa! Crotch Rockets are outrageous to insure. How does it break down? Bet the Harley is only around 25-30% of the cost and the Busa is the rest!

That isn't necessarily true. With a clean record my rocket was less expensive to insure than my 102CI Roadstar as State farms rates are based on displacement as well as your driving record.
