[fatbob]

I use BMW as they were the only feckers that would insure the bike with a system on it ???

 

[Boardsofnorfolk]

I use Bennetts and pay £318 fully comp 8) 5 years no claim.

 

[mit]

lol, when I got my bike most quotes were £4000 and I got a quote from BMW Motorrad Insurance for £1600 which I snapped up. Renewal quote was £2300 so insured via H&R for £830.

Where do you guys live? Fort Knox??

 

[billybob]

bmw for me 53 years old 7 years no claims £495

 

[Johnboy]

Motorcycle direct just over £300, 8yrs NCD, was paying £120 on an 06 blade before this

 

[unionjack]

This is not a cheap bike to insure.

 

[andybarsblade]

Jus renewed mine with MCE. 32 years old, garaged, 3 points, 4 years protected no claims, mods declared, 6000 miles per year, £560

 

[reddevil007]

Just renewed mie with bike sure. All mods noted £447 3 years ncd

 

[Boardsofnorfolk]

My insurance knows about all mods,but as they are not performance mods it doesn't make a difference,plus my bike is in my living room,5000 miles a year max,no pillions,not used for work.
Plus where I live insurance is pretty good. Oh and my house insurance says bike is ok in house,doesn't affect my insurance,but they won't cover me if I damage bike in house lol.

But the highest quote I got last year for the BMW was £10,000! Pml said a one off payment of £10,000 not sure who it was though. Should of saved the page ;D

[ekdg]

Im just in the process of insuring mine, standard bike £230 fully comp sdp and commute 40 with 4yrs no claims.

Add a exhaust and power commander £520.

yet to call BMW insurance but will be trying them next week.

of sell exhaust and PCV save some cash?

 

[Hopper]

I got a quote for a lot more than that !!

Iv lost Amy full no claims as I haven't insured a bike on the road for 3 years. I'm 1 year out as I have insured a bike in the last 4 years.

My cheapest fully comp quote ????

£9500 !!!!!

Iv been riding since I was 21. I'm 31 now......the companies don't recognise the fact iv actually been riding 1000cc bikes on track for the last 5yrs non stop.

I don't ride the bike on the road so have gone with a Motorsports on and off track insurance policy.. It was a LOT cheaper !

 

[unionjack]

How does that work Russ?

 

[Hopper]

The bike is insured at my property and whilst on the track. Its not insured for riding on the road. Iv used a company called Lockton for a few years now. Real good people to deal with.
Very reasonably priced too.

 

[unionjack]

Do they just cover you for theft at the track and home?

 

[Hopper]

They can do what ever you want mate.
