Re: [ST] Insurance premium after a ticket

[drbrant@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

In NC it is a 45% premium for 10 to 15 mph over.  this is for 3 years by the way.  For more the 25 mph it is a 100% increase assuming you have not lost your liceince.  I have even seen police officiers and courts only allow someone to keep their licience if they sell the offending vehicle.

Subject: [ST] Insurance premium after a ticket

I'm curious.  Anyone care to share the impact on insurance premium rate
after receiving a ticket going really fast, say over 100?  Maybe going 30,
40, etc over the posted speed limit would have the same effect.  On
twisties, many bikes (with appropriate tires) can easily double the speed
limit and you wouldn't risk going to jail, but doubling the speed limit in a
70 zone could find you in immediate separation from your trusty steed, no?

BTW, I've decided to gear my bike down (dropping a tooth on the
countersprocket) to get more low end AND to reduce the max speed.  Waiting
on the part now.
