I friend of mine has the Centennial version of the Daytona. Last year he
had Progressive at around $600 for the year. He got a notice just before
renewal that they were reclassifying the Daytona as a "high" performance
bike. The rates shot up like in your example. I guess that's what happens
when they insure more and the bike gets more popular. Hopefully they won't
reclassify the Sprint! (Blame it on the movie "Torque" and Ice-T.
