Hey Keith, can you not have the America for summer and the Trophy for winter-ish months?

We are obligated to get our basic coverage from a Govt. owned insurance corporation but can buy optional extended coverage from private companies. I AM getting a good rate and even then I pay what... about $150/month/bike!
Sounds like you're getting screwed! Especially considering your shorter riding season. I had no idea.
Okay, Plan B;
You've got a beautiful sculpture for your den that can be fired up and run down the road on those moonlit nites when you're in a scofflaw mood.

Ain't gonna happen... winter's all about snow and ice. Unless I get a side car, make it 2 wheel drive and add chains!

Plan C. Get another job to pay for the extra cost. Plan D. Sell a child. Any child. Maybe even the neighbor's child. Plan E. Rob gas stations part time. And not locally! Plan f. Get a job at the bank. They always have lots of money there. Or better yet, an investment firm. Nobody really pays for any "mistakes" that might come up while working there. Plan G. Rent out your basement to four or five immigrant families. Plan H. As a last resort. Make the wife get another job. Sure, she'll be mad at you, but really, what's new about that?! The main thing is, you gotta find a way to keep both Trumpets. I hope I've helped you out here with my brainstorming!

4 bikes full coverage on all of them. 2 decent sized claims in 5 years on the bikes and we still only pay 350 a year.

Plan C... ain't gonna happen Plan D... Hmmmm... Plan E... Too risky Plan F... Job? Please refer to my response to plan C Plan G... And have them steal my Trumpets? I don't think so (that one might have been uncalled for) Plan H... well I ain't got no wife ya see.
So.......... been coming up with some ideas of my own... some a bit (but just a bit) more realistic than Rich's, some seriously flawed, but ideas nevertheless. I love 'em both, that's the bottom line. Stay tuned for the continuing saga of "Keith and his love triangle!" Soon to be released on DVD and Blue-ray!!

And if you don't, he'll find out when he's older and you'll lose all your Grandpa points.
