*** WARNING: Insurance fraud is common!
Don't be an idiot: Don't give up your hard earned cash to someone without knowing if they're legitimate. ALL BROKERS HAVE AN OFFICE - DON'T MEET THEM IN A PARKING LOT AND PAY CASH! If you're dealing with a broker, make sure they are legit by searching RIBO (Registered Insurance Brokers of Ontario) list by clicking the following link: http://www.ribo.com/co_license.cfm (I've also been informed by a few brokers that they'll have some kind of plaque saying they're valid members)

Online Quotes: All online quote systems are inaccurate, and just don't work for bikes - Don't waste your time with them. Call the company direct - it'll be faster and less headaches for you.

General notes about the list below:
- "License restrictions" usually means they won't insure you if you haven't had your license for a few years.
- "Bike restrictions" - if you're looking at a highend sport bike, they might not cover it.
- "Area restrictions" - They only do certain areas of Southern Ontario.

-- Insurance Brokers
Brokers can go to many insurance companies to find the best deal for you - although some don't deal with all the insurance companies, so sometimes you need to contact a few brokers. Also, insurance companies can deal direct or via Agents.

Insurance Brokers Association of Ontario (IBAO) - association - http://www.ibao.org

The best auto insurance for car owners is the one with affordable premiums. These premiums shouldn’t cost you an arm and a leg but it must be matched to your budget.
