One insurance company may be cheap for one person but expensive for another, just plod ya details into a comparison website, and give the top 3 a ring, see if they will out do each others quote.

Maybe try https://www.thebikeinsurer.co.uk/

Carole Nash seems like a decent company to me, I was with them for two years and had no real problems, plus you get breakdown cover for free which is nice.

Something tells me that this new guy is lacking common sense.

gocompare seem to give the lowest quotes for me, not by much
compared to other comparison sites, but usually around £30 cheaper than say the cheapest on confused.com

Think they get less commission so the quotes are lower.

Better in your pocket than theirs, no?

My first bike was insured with hastings direct, brought brand new and stolen with-in 3 weeks but they did get my pay out to me with-in 3 weeks of the incident.
Only problem i had was their first valuation was at ⅓ the price i paid (£1400 paid - £425 offered), after I called up and said not a chance I was apologised to and told they had no idea how that amount had been came to and offered me the whole £1400 minus my excess.
So in the end very happy.

My second bike which was stolen 2 months ago was with KGM Insurance. Purchased 11 months before it was stolen for £1500, and was offered straight out £1500 (Yes the exact same as I paid for it nearly a year before, But I did pay stupidly low amount). This cheque I got with-in 2-3 weeks, so again very happy.

My gorgeous new baby I shall be insuring with Hastings Direct, as soon as I pass my MOD2 on Wednesday.
So either of them would be my recommendation from personal experience.

You know that you should declare that mod to any insurer, and that they'll rape the arse off of you because of it, right?

A lot of people don't though, and I suspect you'll be one of them.

If you do intend to declare fully, I'd suggest looking at eBikeInsurance, who don't apply crazy loadings for non-performance mods.
