Just wondering what the insurance rates were on a 990 Adventure. The reason I ask this is that I had a Suzuki 650 V-Strom that I thought the rates where high, but purchased a BMW 1200 GSA and the rate was less and it's a bike that is three times the value. OK, I found out that Progressive rates the 650 V-Strom as a sport bike and that's the reason for higher rates where as, BMW's are old farts bikes and even at a higher value the BMW losses are less. My question is, what class does the KTM 990 fall into and what are the rates for most owners. Oh, by the way, I'm an old fart with a perfect driving record.
