Insuring foreign bikes in North America
Cheryl Dudek from Fernet sent the following (September 17, 2018). It's good stuff. Hope it's helpful and lays things out clearly. There's a link to apply online. * Note the requirement for a U.S. mailing address and sole payment method (credit card).*
----------
"We are writing insurance for foreign registered motorcycles and RVs. There must be a US address used for the policy. The hard copy of the policy will be sent to this address. Any other correspondence from the carrier to the client will be done via email. The policies are all a standard 12 month policy, which may be cancelled at any time. The premium may either be paid in full, or monthly installments. We prefer the monthly installment plan for our clients as this way they pay for only the amount of insurance they use. We will make the payments on the client’s provided credit card so the client does not have to worry about making the payment on time. The payments will be made until we are notified via email to cancel. There will be no payments after the cancellation date.
There is a standard form attached that we send out for a quote. Or you could follow this link to our overseas page on our website:
https://fernet.com/Pages/overseas.htm
Once we receive a submitted form, the client will receive a quote within 48 hours (allow more time on weekends)
If all criteria requirements are met, insurance policies may be bound and sold almost immediately. There is no waiting process. Once we have all the required information and signed contract, payment is accepted by credit card only.
Once payment is made, you will receive your policy documents, ID card and receipts via email once processing is complete. This process is usually immediate. In some cases it may take up to an hour to receive your email.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact us."

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
