    Hi everyone!

    Hubby and I have just purchased our first bike....2010 Softail Deluxe.

    So so so excited...we pick it up next week.

    Just in the process of getting quotes for insurance- wondering if you had any advice on companies?

    Looking forward to getting to know you.

    Hi Miss M.

    I just bought my first Harley, 2010 Wideglide, and I got free 12 months full comp. insurance through the dealer .

    Did you buy yours through a Harley dealer ?

    They quoted me $830 for it (if I had to pay) but when I received the insurance papers, it was $720. I queried this wih the salesman and he said, they get it cheaper because of the shear volume they sign up, and next year when I get my renewal, he said to go back to them and he should be able to get it cheaper than quoted.

    Hope this helps.

    Hey guys- thanks for all the welcomes

    We are in SE QLD and definitely keen to do some riding with anyone from that area!

    I will do the ring around for the insurance- the dealer said they can do the insurance but I thought it was worth sussing it out.

    The deluxe and colour choice- it was my hubby's pick- I wanted a Fat Boy LO-loved the black denim-looks mean and tough

    but in saying that the Deluxe is beautiful in her own shiny way- I bet she will turn some heads.

     solo- have to agree insuremyride look to be the best value for us.

    Phantom- like the sound of that, but I seriously don't look anything like Bette

    Welcome to the forum,

    To answer your insurance question (and if it isn't too late) you may want to get a quote from New England Insurance Brokers (NEIB). I have a 09 Ultra Classic covered by them for $550/year without riding gear cover. The excess is $400, no under 25's, and full replacement value for 2 years. You can custom tailor the riding gear coverage if you have really expensive helmets, leathers, etc but I have none of those items.

    Contact Jeremy on 07 4681 2877. His mum might answer the phone but she will help you too. NEIB provides a lot of coverage for the Ulysses group.
