Damn... I thought my first bike policy at £68 was cheap. I think you might have a decade or two on me though Laughing

If you cancel it, how much of that will they claim was the cost of setting up the policy?

Swinton

And I declared my points, the writeoff 3 years ago and last years attempted theft.

And commuting, 10k a year and protected no claims.

Plus I have a baby oleg coming in the post.....

21, no NCB, CBT, 3rd party = £358 per year on a £900 125.

Oh and my excess is £750.

No. At least they are prepared to quote to you.

32, no NCB, CBT, 3rd party fire & theft, commuting, 12k pa miles = £207 per year on a £1000 125.

Excess of £250

Sometimes, it's good being "old". Very Happy

On a side note, when doing quotes online, when they ask "license held since?" is that the date I passed the CBT, or would it be from when I had a provisional bike license (which will be 12 years ago) since doesn't the CBT only validate the provisional part of my license? On the paper part of my license the provisional A starts in 2002 yet I only did my CBT 2 days ago.

There's no correct answer. If you're going through a comparison site or broker, the question you're being asked might not even be what the underwriter wants to know.

Sorry, I know that's not very helpful, but I wanted to get in before anyone makes a bold assertion about what they meant to ask.

For safety's sake, and if it only makes a few £££ difference, I'd go with your CBT completion date, even if that's not what the plain wording of the question asks.

Why? If he's at fault in a crash surely he's liable for the excess?

Urrrr, no. Third party insurance (what your insurer will pay out to someone that you hit) cannot have any deductions made.

Doesn't your bike make 400bhp though? Laughing

£272 TPO for me on a £700 600cc sports bike. 20 years old, student, riding other bikes, overseas riding, breakdown cover and protected no claims all included.

Was more than double that last year with only overseas riding.

Whereas I got quoted £900 for a 125 "sports" bike I now have no intention of buying, yet my 600 hornet costs me less than 1/3 that (a 600 sports bike would only cost me £200 more than the 125, and thats without spending more than 5 minutes shopping around)

And no, £360 TPO, 25 on a £800 bike.


Nope, 3rd Party. Obviously I'm not going to post my policy document but it is 3rd party with a 750 quid excess.

I heard from a friend of a friend that his dads friend from work pays £12 a year on a old triumph (serious) probably bollocks though. For that price I would own a shit ton of bikes just as an investment/ feel like a boss.
