My wife was pleasantly surprised at the rates on my 07 K1200GT, I think the rates are based on a touring bike similar to a Goldwing, not the 150mph missile that it is.
The GT gets a 'touring bike' insurance rating because the base configuration from the factory equips it with a windshield and luggage while the nearly identical S is rated as a big-displacement sport bike.These two categories are on opposite sides of the accident rate spectrum so there is a huge insurance cost disparity between them. GT owners just luck out here I guess.GillyWI said:I think the rates are based on a touring bike similar to a Goldwing, not the 150mph missile that it is.
