Leaving bike insured

[TheSmiler]

After a definitive answer here on this topic purchased insurance in September so still have 3 months insurance to go on my bike. However decided its time to sell my bike and put the sale price towards dass to get my license sorted and then purchase a bike.

So what I'm asking is are there any potential problems that can come from doing this

I know people that have done it before. But would like some reassuring.

I assume you mean leave the insurance running on your bike when its sold?

Go for it. I did it. Loads of people do it. Get involved

Never heard of anyone I know having a problem doing this.

However, the issue comes if the other owner doesn't insurer it - if it then gets stolen and crashed in to a group of school kittens crossing the road - your insurance is liable and you could have a nasty claim against you.
It doesn't matter if it's only TPO, you're still liable for third party damage done after a theft.

Its illegal to have more than 1 insurance on a bike.
so new owner can't insure it.
just get a new bike then do a changeover.

I'd do it for a week or maybe two, but three months is really pushing it IMO. Don't forget that now we have the MID that you could be enabling someone to ride uninsured...

I'd have to really really trust the buyer of my bike to do it.

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

As per Donny - some insurance company employees may try and say this because they can't be bothered to make a better excuse to not do any work.
However, there's absolutely no reason not to have two insurance policies on one vehicle.
Companies that do daily insurance (no longer available for bikes) specifically advertised that it was ideal for insuring someone else's vehicle.

Map - isn't that exactly why he wants to let it run out? You get your no claims bonus and you don't get lumbered with a charge for cancelling.

I have a question - if he takes out a new policy on his new bike now, and an extra year's no claims arrives in 3 months time, is there any way to utilise that on the new policy?
