Insurance price increase?

[Kentol750]

Just sorting my renewal...up by 30%.
Inb4...yes, did compare sites etc. Bunneyetts wouldn't budge. I can get it cheaper, however....

Just would like to find out if that is an average increase across the board?
And what haggling tools work?

It'll have to take someone to need £100k a year and have an expected remaining lifetime of 45 years.

How many of them do you get?

Don't waste your time trying to haggle when you can get it cheaper elsewhere.

Get some cashback as well. https://www.topcashback.co.uk/category/bike-insurance/

Just wanted to know if this was the year's average increase. Spend a lot of time telling pupils to shop around, then, I see a massive jump in price.
Another company goes on my 'watch out at (automatic) renewal time' list.

There's no rhyme of reason to any of it.

It's no surprise so many people ride/drive without insurance. Not condoning it, but, see why they risk it.

My insurance is up quite a bit too, mind you it's the broker fee that's the real ball breaker.

Wotcha.

Seeing as I sold my Kawasaki Drifter earlier in the year, it means my remaining bikes are all classed as classics . . . . my insurance dropped by £106

The trike insurance is up next - I bet that one goes up to compensate.

Mine was about £65 this year, I'm chalking that down as a fluke and expecting my renewal offer to cause many tears when it lands in a few weeks.

It's the % increase I'd like to see us compare. Actual costs are immaterial...if they stick 30% on mine, that's only 38 quid. Fully comp with all benefits, then ok, I can afford it. But then, if everyone starts accepting it, those of us paying £000s are fucked. New riders are getting stuffed, biking becomes more expensive than driving. Hmmmmmmm.

^ that's a very good quote for 18. I think it'll take some collusion for insurers to get bike insurance anywhere near to car... wait for it

Just been on the phone to Bennetts re,renewal. Paid 323 last year and was quoted 336 this year, apparently my policy being with Aviva they don't discount for the 1st years no claims, which I find a bit odd, is that normal as I was expecting up to 30% off.

The salesperson explained that due to high theft rate of motorcycles in London, policies have increased and other insurers were quoting her 500 ( this is to insure a YBR125 and Im 45, provisional). Finally she got it down to 308, which I wasn't impressed with so told her to halt the automatic payment renewal procedure (sneaky b*stards)

Any other better insurers out there?
