I have recently put all my policies with Auto Owners. Their rates were F'in awesome when I had the house, regular cars/trucks, stated value stang, and stated value Harley. Plus the ability to put the stang and harley to storage during the winter months.

Came here to post this. In my experience, assuming you bundle your bikes with your cars and/or home, it goes pretty much like this:

Auto Owners > Liberty Mutual > State Farm > Geico > everyone else

Progressive and Allstate have never been remotely close to the ballpark.

I've used AO for years, though I am about to start shopping around again. Their rates have jumped 10-15% every year since I signed with them. Could be the entire market has seen similar increases, but it still pisses me off enough to check with other providers.

I haven't used these guys since 2006-ish, but they were always very reasonably priced when I insured just the bikes without an auto/home bundle:

ACE Cycle Insurance

Yeah and for me State Farm had great rates but they kept increasing to the point that their rates were out of hand...

I think it varies a bunch from state to state.

Some companies will do that; depending upon customer inertia to keep them, while slowly increasing their rates. Unfortunately it works, because most people are too lazy to shop around for cheaper rates. It's the same thing as the old 'slowly increasing the temperature and boiling a frog.'
