Insurance Nazis...
The point in my previous post about insurance is not hypothetical; most companies will not insure non-UK residents and non-UK bikes get hit with a big premium even for a UK resident.
Motofierme gives details on their webiste about a specialist broker in Germany who may be able to help and the other resources on this site also give details.
I would suggest:
1. Always be honest with the insurance company - otherwise your policy is not valid and you have paid them a bunch of money for nothing.
2. Make sure you get it - good & comprehensive coverage is a lifesaver if you need it, so insure yourself up the yin-yang.
3. Get a good travel policy from your country of origin (?USA) before you come and check the terms to make sure it covers motorcycling; there will likely be a term in there to void cover if the activity is not legal, so you have to get it right at this end with regards to vehicle registration and insurance. I've seen some right disasters where insurance companies have refused to pay out, so do your homework.
My comments have meant to be preventative and constructive, not provocative and hope they have not been misconstrued.
Save travels.
