    If you do not wear a helmet you are required to cover 10,000 medical on yourself. That can be a regular hospital policy. No other ins is mandatory in FL for motorcycles, tho a good idea.

No answer on this forum will probably fit your exact details. Plus depending on the density of the population area you live in affects it. True you don't have to have any motorcycle ins in Fl . But we are overwhelmed with retired yankees looking for signs to Disney, not motorcycles. This is a great place to have a headlight modulator.
    I'm not sure the numbers. I do know I cancelled all injury protections as the wife has ass-kicking BCBS health ins through her work. 58 & 53 with very good driving records, bikes kept in garage, unincorporated area between the city of Ocala & the Ocala Natl Forest.
    As a Florida native I hear you about the alien drivers.

    Having uninsured ins in Fl is really a good idea and very expensive because 1 in 4 drivers in FL have no ins.

    In Florida, if you are not wearing a helmet, get pulled for a primary offense - say speeding - your insurance card MUST state that the extra $10k insurance is specifically for "not wearing a helmet."

    That's better than what I am paying for my F6B and my DR650... I'm paying $845.00 ...lthough it's all full coverage and including increased liability and uninsured motorists coverage of 300K. Way above Maryland minimum requirements.

    Good Deal!

    You are all getting a good deal. In Los Angeles, I pay $605 for ONE bike with the Auto Club, as long as I don't ride more than 1,500 miles per year (!) And that's with a multiple-vehicle discount. More miles and the premium goes up accordingly. I'm 58 with a perfect driving record and I live in a good neighborhood.

    Of course, my premium also includes coverage for all the illegals, who never carry insurance and just bolt south of the border if something happens. Then we have all the ambulance chasers, the "hit me I need the money" people, the insurance fraud on a massive scale, etc. Yes, we have nice weather – it's just very expensive!

    Not a bad deal at all

    I just paid $507 for one F6b for a year. I live in Dallas Tx so the under/uninsured is a extremely high

    Wow. With no liability, if a motorcycle causes any damage to someone else's property, the property owner has to sue to get compensated? Amazing, especially in a state with a 12 month riding season.
    Former Ride:
    2013 F6B Standard, black; sold 7/2019
    Latest Addition:
    2016 Gold Wing Level 3, red; SCT transmission stuck in manual mode
    2019 Miles:
    7,900 as of 10/6

    Paying $680 in Huntington Beach, CA for one 2015 F6B from AAA! That nice weather is VERY expensive. Moving north next year, can't afford to be retired and have good weather anymore.
