Need international motorcycle insurance

I‘m looking for a motorcycle insurance witch accepts an international driver licenc. I‘m from Switzerland and have only an IDL. I wants to buy a motorcycle in USA and use it during holidays (approximately 6 weeks/year). To register the bike I need an insurance but I don't have an US driving license, only my Swiss driving licence and an International driving license. So I‘m looking for an insurance company which will issue a police on a IDP

There are several companies that will insure you with an International driver's license. Keep in mind most companies will add a surcharge to the policy because they will not be able to verify your driving history. The surcharge will vary by company and typically require you to show proof of your International license. Motorcycle insurance is different from car insurance but there are several companies that will insure your motorcycle. I would start with a company such as Dairyland (who specializes in motorcycles and will accept an international license).  If you have any additional questions don't hesitate to ask.

Can I get car insurance if my spouse has a revoked license?

Most companies will not insure a driver with a revoked license, even if there is a driver on the policy whose license is valid. Your spouse must be listed on your policy since you are married, but she does not have to be covered as a driver.

If I backed into my husband's motorcycle, will we have to pay two deductibles?

If you have collision coverage on both policies then it is likely that the damage will be covered. However, since you two are married your liability will not cover the damage to your husband's motorcycle since you are not unrelated third parties.
