Ron, I am convinced that none of the actuarial guys in insurance companies
ever rode motorcycles. One piece of evidence is your story. Another is
that I pay more insurance, from the same carrier, for my 1969 Ambassador
than I do for my 2001 Suzuki SV650 simply because the Ambo has a bigger
engine!!. Guess which I can get into more trouble with??!! Bob

Loopers,
I have the GMAC Rider Club Motorcycle insurance plan, through National
General Insurance Company. 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"?!
