Is it true that in Florida .....

No bike insurance is required to legally ride on the streets ??
A friend of mine was telling me this the other day after hearing me
gripe about paying $2000 for this years insurance..and thats 1 way only !!

Up here in Ottawa the insurance is just freaking crazy ....
And the no insurance fine is $5000...

Just curious...

Cheers

Same thing in Montana. I think they're just being nice, though. Seeing as the average family income is around $18,000. It's like giving ya some astroglide before an ***-raping.

Re: Is it true that in Florida .....

Wow...thanks guys....what a place....Why the hell am I not in Florida ??
Year round riding and no insurance required...
Does it get any better?

Up here I ride to maybe, 3 spots all season......Hardly ever go on rides anymore..and for that I have to pay thru the nose...

I am contemplating taking the bike off the road and just trailering it to our local dragstrip hookup...but I would miss the Friday night get togethers at the local hangout. Just isnt the same pulling up in the Ford Escort....lol

Oh well, thanks for the answers..
Cheers

Re: Is it true that in Florida .....

Is this only the case if you own the bike, and you don't have a loan out on it?
