I understand your thinking. I feel the need to let you know that you may not be insured at all unless you are in a street legal machine. The insurance companies don't initially investigate how fast you were going if you were involved in an accident. The first thing they look at is to see if your cart has been altered, which makes it illegal to operate, and therefore they will not grant coverage for the accident. They don't care if you were only traveling 10mph. If it was your fault and there are injuries involved, say good-bye to a lot of your money. I would check with my insurance agent to make sure. This information came from an Allstate agent.
I don't like it either, but it's something that we have to live with.
