I got a call today from state farm telling me they would not insure my KLR650 because its a dual purpose bike and I may take it off of paved roads. They want me to buy additional dirt bike insurance that wont cover me on-road to go with my on-road insurance. If not, no insurance at all. Probably because I got collision and medical insurance on it and me. I know a lot of you guys are are insured with them. What do you do? David

Sounds like time to fire State Farm. One of the other insurance companies will be glad to insure you.

Interesting. I have had State Farm for a long time on all my bikes and cars, and always had god service from them. But the insurance has lapsed on three of my bikes and I have been waiting to renew until I actually put the bikes back on the road. I just carry liability and comp, except on my KTM, for which I buy collision. (How do you afford medical coverage on a bike?). I'll be curious to see what they say.
