Insurance on a Saturday

[timboellis]

I am buying a bike tomorrow all going well, but i have insurance just now on my current 125, howevever the insurance will be very little change on what i am looking at but will not know what I am going to get until after 3 on Saturday when my insurance company is closed.

So what do i do get insurance online through another company or is there any other option ie insuring myself on any bike or a day insurance or somthing?

Give your insurance company a call and see if you can sort out some kind of 'any bike 3rd party' deal. Might cost you a couple of quids but shouldn't be a big problem.

most companies can set up insurance switch over times, give em a call and tell them what time your swapping bikes and you'll be fine. it will just switch over. some insurance companies will give you insurance on both for that one day of switch over. enjoy your new bike buddy

If he doesn't know what bike he's getting he won't have the REG etc.
How will be be insured then if he can't phone his insurance company because they're closed by the time he gets a bike?

Not sure how the "any bike 3'rd party" thing works.
Now i'm sure you can ride ANY bike even if that bike has no insurance on it because you're covered under your own bike policy.
However after watching numerous shows on TV about coppers and hearing stories from friends etc i will assume that if stopped they will impound the bike and charge you to get it back even if it turns out you was covered to ride it.

If you do go down that route i would make sure to phone around and ask what how it works in case you get pulled for having no insurance.

Maybe someone else has some info about it?

Other than that you can look into 1day insurance. Will probably cost about £30 but the excess will be high (£1000'ish). Don't crash

I do not believe that is the case with the "covered to ride other bikes". In every single policy I have read, the conditions have been that the bike has to have it's own insurance policy on it.

Otherwise you could buy a hayabusa and ride around on it under your cg125 + any bike insurance policy.

I think they police that stopped you were wrong. Either that or they understand that you have insurance on your own bike and decide to give people who have the ride any bike thing a break because the owner should have insured it.

Hmm.. Now i'm in doubt again.
I may have to dig up some info on this.

It depends what your policy says. My current bike policy (bennetts) as well as all my bike policies have required the other vehicle to be owned & insured by someone else (other than a spouse in some cases)
