Short term insurance.

[-]

I have a policy with Carole Nash, now on my old EBike policy, I could chop and change bikes online with no extra cost.

I have 4 of my bikes on the Carole Nash policy (apparently the max), but have sold one and want to insure another, same model and value, just to take it for an MOT before I sell it. Carole Nash want £40 for the privilege of removing the sold one and adding the one soon to be sold, on a policy which only costs me £155 a year.

Has anyone got any other ideas, £40 to insure a bike for a 9 mile journey seems nuts, but I'd rather not risk riding it uninsured?

Cheers.

Has the MOT expired ?

I'm having the same issues at the moment with a car .. If you read the small print of the short term insurance (the one I was looking at) the vehicle isn't covered if it's not MOT'd.

So I guess you wouldn't be covered to take it to MOT station.

Can you ask the garage to pick up the bike?

Any insured and taxed vehicle might spare it's plate if I "need" to use the vehicle. I've not done it before and ridden for weeks....

In short it works fine to swap the plate. Depends on your ethic though.
