Motorcycle Rate Up

Odd question:

Goldenrule rates up 20% for motorcycle riders in states that allow them too. Where can I find out which states these are?

Have you thought of perhaps calling Golden Rule and asking?

Just a wag, but I suppose they will be open tomorrow.

FWIW, I am in a rider (no pun intended) state. It applies to applicants under age 35 who have a motorcycle license. Over age 35 is OK. Does the age distinction apply to the rate up?

Here is an interesting tidbit for those who care. The motorcycle rider started in the Pat Rooney days. He had a son who was killed on a motorcycle and decided to place riders on policies from that point forward.

That is a horrible policy!

Maybe they should rate up people who drive cars smaller than a Hummer or at least a Lincoln Navigator.

Bastages!

This is exactly the kind of value that a wily, crafty veteran (Greg Maddux of insurance?) brings to this board.
