How Much Are Insurance Rates for a Honda Grom?

I’m thinking about getting a Honda Grom and one of the things that’s been on my mind is the insurance cost. I’ve seen all sorts of prices online, but I’m really looking for some real-world numbers from people who actually own a Grom.

Here’s What I’m Curious About:

  • Actual Premiums: What are you all paying for insurance on your Groms?
  • Insurance Companies: Which insurers have you found to be the best (or worst) for motorcycle insurance?
  • Coverage Options: What coverage types do you have, and do you feel they are worth it for the price?
  • Personal Experiences: Any tips or tricks for saving on insurance premiums?

I know that rates can vary quite a bit based on factors like location, age, and riding experience, but I’d really appreciate any feedback or insight you can share. Let’s help each other out! Thanks in advance!

Insurance rates for a Honda Grom can really vary. Factors include your age, location, and how long you’ve been riding. Generally, younger riders might face higher premiums due to inexperience.

Absolutely! I’ve noticed that in urban areas, insurance can be significantly higher compared to rural areas due to theft rates and traffic density.

Driving history matters too! If you’ve had accidents or violations, they can definitely hike up your insurance cost. Staying accident-free can really help keep rates lower.

Exactly! My sister had a few speeding tickets, and her Grom insurance ended up being quite pricey. Avoid those tickets!

Don’t forget about coverage options! Full coverage usually costs more than just liability. I went with liability since I’m on a budget, but I might upgrade later as I get more experienced.

That’s a great point! I think some riders overlook the importance of their coverage level. In some cases, more coverage provides peace of mind.

I think it varies by provider too. I shopped around and found a fantastic rate with a local company that really understands motorcycle riders!

How old is your Grom? Sometimes, newer models can have higher premiums because of replacement costs and parts availability. My 2019 model is a bit more expensive to insure.

Rider age is definitely a big factor. A new rider might pay close to double what an older, experienced rider would pay for the same bike!

Wow, I didn’t think it would be that much! Good thing I’m over 30 now! Haha.

Yeah, it’s a bit of a double-edged sword. Older riders often have more experience, but they might also have more responsibilities, which comes with its own stress.

You could also consider taking a motorcycle safety course. Some insurers even offer discounts for that, and it’s a good way to reduce your chances of an accident!

I want to look into that! I believe investing in safety is always worth it. Plus, who doesn’t want a discount? It’s like a win-win!

Ultimately, it’s crucial to do your research. There are so many factors at play that any advice is just a starting point.

I recently got quotes for my Grom and found that Geico had the best rates for me. Just make sure to include all your discounts!

That’s great to know! I was considering Geico too. How much were you quoted if you don’t mind sharing?

I checked a few insurers, and Progressive was surprisingly competitive as well. It really pays to shop around!

Progressive gave me a quote much higher than Geico, but my record is a bit spotty. Anyone else got different experiences?

Was there a specific discount that worked for you with Progressive?
