In addtion to TC's theory of a larger risk pool, the only other possible explanation I can think of with crotch rockets is the magnatude of potential loss when there is an accident. If the average crotch rocket is totalled how much is lost, $8-15K? Your average cobra will be at least $25-$35k write off, with many more in the $45-60k range. Obviously it costs insurance cos more if a cobra is totaled. Smaller risk pool plus greater potential loss equals more $$ to insure.
