    American Modern. Agreed upon value, limitless mileage. Most wouldn't take me as I'm young (AM would once I turned 25, couldn't do anything at 24).

    thanks all! ,and yes I have contacted Robin at Midwest classics, so far they are looking to be the least expensive. I am also working with Chizmark Larson to get a quote. state farm told me 600 a year then told me they wouldn't do it unless I had home owners and other policies with them. You can guarantee I wont be calling them again

    Thanks again.

    State Farm wanted my other policies but couldn't compare to Travellers for my home and other autos and progressive for my cycles. They currently only cover my 818

    Did you get a full quote? State Farm wanted all my business also when I contacted them (following another roadster owners recommendation) so I let them quote for homeowner's, two trucks, a car and trailer as well as the FFR. Guess what---the whole package for equivalent or higher coverage, including the roadster which runs >$300 annually, was over a grand less than what I had been paying after they applied the multi-policy discounts. Needless to say I switched over everything. You might not want to write them off until you have them do a complete work up.

    Whew, I was just thinking this morning..."What if I can't get coverage over 3000 miles a year?" Glad to know this. Thanks!

    Holy crap, I just wasted an hour reading up on insurance because I was worried about mileage restrictions.....Glad to know I found this thread.....twice. School needs to END so I can make this happen already.

    But hey, while I'm here...
    Anyone find limitless mileage other than State-Farm and American Modern?

    Thanks
