Progressive is bad, mmmkay? LOL at least for me it was, even though my current insurance (who uses Progressive for bikes). 2 grand a year! Geico wanted 1800!
i went to state farm and its 600/yr. full coverage too. aint no way im going with anything less for a brand new bike!
motorcycles arent a death sentence. yes, people in cars dont see us a lot of times...but you have to be aware of them and anticipate that theyll do something stupid. this has saved me quite a few times in my ~3 months of street riding.
also, make sure you are as visible as can be. i have a lime green bike, and i wear lime green as well (jacket and helmet). my friends tell me they can see me coming a mile away! but i dont let that lull me into a false sense of security. there are still people who dont see me because they dont pay attention.
make sure you take a training course...youll learn a ton i promise!
