Ron, sounds typical. One thing I have found with ins. companies... is that the folks working for them are basically drones, lemmings and the like. They can't understand that an 850 was a decent size motor back then and they should take into account the year of the bike, expecting folks to think is asking way too much. Throw a name like Moto Guzzi in there and really watch the expression turn blank. Preachin' to the choir...

I was looking over my paperwork, preparing to write a check for another year when I noticed that the EV gets a "touring motorcycle" discount while the Eldo does not. It only amounts to $17.00 a year difference, but I figured it was worth a phone call. I told the woman that both bikes have fairings, hard bags & tail trunks, & I ride them both as touring bikes (long distance 2-up etc.). Well, after a loooong wait on hold, she comes back to say that the "touring " designation is based on the CCs of the bike, & that 850 is not big enough to qualify! How about that as an insult to "The Only Motorcycle Built for Unlimited Touring"?!
