I can just imagine them saying 'no problem, we'll give you $500 replacement cost for your bike" and me spending that $500 to buy a gun...
We use the same company for our car, home and business. We got a screaming deal as the owner of the broker is a friend of Mindy's father. The best way to get what you need without having to pay exorbitant premiums is to get hooked up with an "inside deal". My bikes are covered (well over $10,000..$500 deductable) but most places will want to charge you extra to cover bikes. If your parents have insurance this is the best way to get hooked up....long time customers (or relations of) get the bonus as they are not totally new/unknown to the broker. Did I mention insurance agents get all giddy at the prospect of sticking it to cold callers? Find an "in" and it will be much less painful.
