I live in Germany and my insurance green card covered me for Ukraine and Russia. Kazakhstan was €20 for a month bought at the border.

Where are you from and the bike?

Second that, Ukraine is a green card country so shouldn't be a problem.

bike and i are both from canada.

i contacted a company recommended from here on the hubb, and they said:

The insurance is valid for all the EU countries, doesnt include non EU like
Ukraine, Serbia, etc.

i was just trying to find a company that would be able to insure the bike and i, for more then just the EU

TourInsure.de includes 'Green Card' (minimum required liability) in Eastern Europe, including RU and Ukraine, but NOT theft in Eastern Europe.
Same cover also available from Knopftours.com.
Check with either to verify info on their website(s) when you apply.
Or
Purchase (cheaper) Green Card from other brokers, and buy 'border' insurance
when crossing into Ukraine or other Eastern Europe countries not included in
EU Green Card.
Good luck.
