*** 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 Companies that deal direct (ie: not through brokers) Primmum - http://www.primmum.com Tel: 1 800 816 9618 (new quotes) Tel: 1 866 466 5276 (client services) Note: The baseline bike coverage. They'll pretty well cover anyone and anything, but you might do better!

Also, insurance companies can deal direct or via Agents. Insurance Brokers Association of Ontario (IBAO) - association - http://www.ibao.org Broker Listing: http://www.ibao.org/html/find_a_broker/index.asp This is the member association of independant brokers and set out guidelines for behaviour.
