Full Coverage Insurance - A Survery

I'm really interested to know what people pay for full coverage on your motorcycles. I finally have a bike that is not an OLD POS and so, I'm going to upgrade to full coverage on it. Currently I just have liability, and I pay $77 a year. So if you're willing to give such info, post up the following. I'll do mine first.

Age: 30 (in two weeks)

Bike Make Year Model: 2000 Suzuki Bandit 1200S

MSF Course?: Yes

Years Riding: about 9, but I didnt have my full license until a year and a half ago

Type of Coverage (Just Liability, full, etc): Liability only

Yearly Rate: $77

Accidents? No

Where do you live? USA, PA

If you want you can even post what company you use, so maybe other people shpping around can check them out if you have a really good rate. I have a friend who is a new rider, riding a new VTX1300 (I know, big for a newbie, i tried to tell him), and he's paying$300 a year for full coverage. I guess you might also have a lower rate if you have a multi car discount, but I'm not sure on that since technically, a motorcycle isnt supposed to be on the same policy as a car.

If youu arent comfortable posting this info, no worries
:D

I called every insurance place in the city. Only two would even give me a quote, with the rest saying this bike was on a "restricted list" and couldn't insure me.

I got this from State Farm. The other company wanted $1400 and I would have had to get an alarm installed for about $700, and no monthly payments, either; all up front. I'm paying about $60 a month for the State Farm policy.
