I love progressive. Great service and coverage. Prices are way cheaper than anywhere else.

I've had Progressive for awhile and I'm happy with them. 1 small claim and they paid quickly and more than fair. I am sick of their stupid commercials though. They spend so much on advertising, I've heard $400 million dollars per year, and we're paying for it with our rates.

That was a great idea! I called them but... HD says that in my tightly regulated state, they can only offer insurance at the time of purchase and then at only four dealers within the state. Rats.

Thanks all for the feedback!

wtf? oh well. in my case it was only about $100 per year difference. not a great amount, but still, who likes to give more money away than they have to?

I've had Progressive since getting my first Harley. Totaled the first one (deer strike) and let me keep the bike w/ clean title and my premium went DOWN. I have Liberty for my cars but they can't come close to Progressive on the Ultra

Dumped my bike last Sept. out of state, live in GA wrecked in MD. No other vehicles involved, hit a huge oil slick getting on the freeway. A little over 6K in repairs. Absolutely no problems getting it taken care of. Even had enough surplus after the work was done to pay the deductable AND get another $400 in extras.... the dealership there was HOT when I got it all in oil and filters. LOL!

On the downside. I've always had a clean MVR... last ticket was over 12 years ago... but my rates almost doubled every year the three years prior to my accident with Progressive.... started at $300 and change when I signed up and ended up over $700 three years later... I was shocked to say the least... dropped them and went with State farm, about $450 a year WITH my accident.

I have Libitry Mut. for my cars and house. when I got my bike I asked them to price out my bike they could not come close to progressive, and like said if you use the HD insurrance it links you to progressive but comes out cheeper.

On a side note when I gave my progressive quoat to the Libitry guy (also a rider) he changed his bkie to it too.
