  1. So, my wife is considering getting into riding. Currently the courses are all showing as full at the polaris in Middleburg until October. I mentioned the stand by policy but, not sure if it is worth her taking the time to simply be turned away. Does anybody know if it is worth trying to get into a class from standby or should she just wait until October??
  2. Thanks for the advice, these guys actually got me a killer rate.
  3. I have a perfect driving record. When I got the insurance I had one accident that was almost three years old which affected my rate. I live on the west side of Cleveland and I don't think anyone is interested in my Triumph
  4. Right now I am paying over $1k a year for one bike and it is a cafe bike, hence why I am looking at other carriers
  5. So, I currently have my bike covered from State Farm. I just ran a quote through Geicko and found that the coverage from them was less than half the cost of what I am paying now. I asked a few of my friends and they had some pretty bad things to say about Geicko. But, I wanted to survey the board and see who you guys would recommend and why.
  6. This is correct. I took the Motorcycle Ohio course last fall and I have to say that it is both easier than what I have read about the MSF (No Box) but, they do work hard at teaching you to think about being in traffic. I would love to take an advanced course as well but, the only one in my area was full months ahead of the start date. I hope they get more setup soon. In the meantime I am sticking to researching riding techniques and continuing to practice and not just take the same roads everyday. I do think that just requiring that everyone take motorcycle Ohio in order to get your initial endorsement (no matter how much practice you already have) and requiring that anyone looking get back to riding take a refresher course would be a good starting point.

    Thanks for letting me know. Guess I will just enjoy a quiet ride just me and the road

    Anybody going to be riding closer to the Cleveland Area? Ravenna is a little far for me.
  9. That is why I commute. Layer up head off and take the long way home when no one is looking.
  10. Welcome, nice bike. I like the house. Just add a drawbridge and a moat.
  11. At least next week looks to have some nice weather
  12. Depending on when I would try to go to that one. Sadly I couldn't stay for dinner tonight but, enjoyed getting to meet some of you
  13. I agree that the sales on this thing are likely to be less than Yamaha would like. It seems like a weird cross between the Can-Am and a traditional bike. I saw this for the first time at the motorcycle show in Jan and just stared at it confusingly wondering what the hell is that.
  14. If you say so. I have never met him myself
