I would like to know what triggered a rate hike from €22 to €105, though. That's pretty outrageous even for an insurance company.

You say that, but in 2008 I paid €340 for a six month policy, that actually cost €132 when I got the documents through from Arisa - for €208 I'd bloody walk down the road to the local insurance office for you - hell, I could get a bargain flight* to Germany and do the paperwork myself and still be quids in! (*I was in the UK at the time I might add)
I'd be more than happy to pay Knopf tours a reasonable 'administration fee' on top of the insurance cost, but not when they charge you €56 (for something that costs €22) every month you have the policy...
Sure you might suck it up if you're only in Europe for a month or two, but I imagine most people from the US bringing their own bike over are going to want to stay for some length of time?
