Not far from you!
Hi guys

Just renewed my insurance, thought id let it be known the method i used to get the best deal possible.

The key for me has been this site http://www.thebikeinsurer.co.uk/

Its similar to gocompare etc though these specialise in bikes.

Ive saved almost £200 and stepped up my insurance by filling in a quick form that took 10 minutes, my current insurance sent me a renewal letter £295 TPTF
I approached the bike insurer, filled in the form and then back came the results within minutes.
£113.79 TPTF
£195.17 FULLY COMP. (So at that price ive gone fully comp)

Please bear in mind im 28, the bikes an 04 rsvr. It includes all legal cover etc and i can ride other bikes (TP only). Trips over seas for up to 30 days at a time. The only thing i didnt take out is breakdown cover, i may do this seperately later on.
(note- this cover is with bike garaged overnight and with lock/datatag/alarm)

This is with Motorcycle direct.

Personally i think ive gat a bargain, all comments welcome guys!

Thanks in advance :thumbup

Mate,that is good,will keep them in mind..:thumbup
 
When i called them to pay the guy did say that not many people are insuring their bikes because of the recession.

This may well have something to do with it!

Anyway all that money ive saved i can feel some major mods coming on! lol

:thumbup
 
That is pretty good. I tried with them but couldn't beat the price with H&R. I am paying 700£ full comp. I'm 32 y/o and 2 years NCB. What's kills me is that I live in London, bike not garaged and use it for commuting. The price includes European breakdown cover, legal rep, 200£ excess and up to 12k miles/year. I spent a whole eve, getting quotes online and called every insurance broker and could not find anyone who offered cheaper than H&R.
 
£118 fully comp lancashire ,garaged,no alarm ,3000 miles a year ish ;-). 41 yr's old .age is a good thing above 40 .well sometimes lol ......

h+r insurance ......

I guess its because of where u live its higher.

My excess is only £150, i was amazed to say the least.

i do have 4 years no claims though. :biggrin
