£420 for a VFR750, highly modified Enfield Bullet with all mods declared, Enfield trials bike and Minsk 125. Specialist modified vehicle policy, pre-agreed value and retention of salvage in case of a total loss, Euro recovery covering classic bikes.

The 9hp minsk is the "main" bike on the policy, for some reason the most expensive to insure.

Not really Sad I'm paying north of £400 for my Husky (a Duke 390 would be even worse). Roll on August when my insurance comes up for renewal and it'll drop to ~£150 for my GT 535.

Statistics are a real c*nt when it comes to insurance.

It's for four bikes, one of which is heavily modified. The VFR is the cheapest on the policy.

£406 for the Forza 750!

Used to be around the £100 mark for the Pan but I've lost all my NCD so am starting from scratch again.

Hi all,

just been through the painful process of trying to get quotes for my MT-07 (restricted), as I wasn't happy about the renewal quote. Got it sorted in the end.

But this was not an easy task as I am 87 with just under 4 years' biking experience. I have discovered that most of them are covered by one umbrella. Those that I know are: - Adrian Flux, Honda, Bikesure, MCN, Devitt, Ageas, Devitt, Bennetts, Triumph. I'm sure there are more.

They've even got BIBA under their thumb. After a longish conversation with them I got transferred to Adrian Flux.

If you doubt it, try ringing, say Bikesure, and listen to the recorded messages whilst you are waiting. Then try another, same blurb.

As for Compare the Market, GoCompare etc. They are a total waste of time.

It's a minefield. Don't get blown up in it.

Cheers
Tony Norton

I always get good car insurance quotes off those sites so definitely not a waste of time IMO...

Why are they a waste of time? I just go on there every year and a couple of clicks later I can get a fresh quote and check if it's cheaper than my renewal price. Much easier than spending a whole day calling different companies for quotes and I bet it's going to be the same price anyway Laughing

Those are all trading names of Adrian Flux Insurance Services Group apart from Devitt and Ageas. Bennetts is owned by the Lucida Group who also own Adrian Flux.

Adrian Flux currently trade under 19 names.
