Seems to depend on the company.  Some appear to be strictly on CC's.  Progressive uses a category.  The Sprint falls into a "tourer", while the Daytona is a "sport bike" - the premium was double for me when I was looking at both.  With all of the squids that crash these $10k bikes, they have to get their money in a few payments as they typically crash them within a year.  Makes business sense from that stand point, but sucks for us who just like the bike and don't go ape-shit on the road with it.

Richard,

When you get bit by that bug, you may be a goner already.  My question to you 
and the group is about insurance. I ride a '00 RS and have a reasonable 
insurance premium from "drive from Progressive."  However, I remember some 
discussion a couple years ago about insurance rates for Sport Bikes even like the 
Daytona 955 being a lot higher than our Sport Touring Sprints.  Things like the 
10R and the Kawasaki 1400 must cost a fortune to insure, don't they? Not to 
mention the new K1200 BMW's with their power and pricetag.
