Can anyone advise me why I can't insure a bike?

Full background:
~10years ago I was disqualified from driving after a car crash & the judge took my bike licence at the same time, naturally.
I went out & bought an ebike to commute, regained my provisional licence 2 years after the disqual but didn't need a vehicle for work so didn't progress it.

Last week a big bike came up for sale cheap, a 99 R6, my childhood dream bike, so I bought it. I cannot get the thing insured anywhere currently.

What am I missing?

Obviously Learners insure mopeds all the time, but after an argument with my apartment management company I have been told I am not eligible for a parking permit so I need to park the bike in the public bike bay down the end of the street, something I can't do without insurance.

Why do you only have a provisional licence? Were you told you needed to take a retest? Or was your licence revoked rather than disqualified?

And this is an R6. What have mopeds got to do with anything?

R6 on a provisional? Parked on the street which means you cannot SORN it. TPFT but you’re not planning to ride it. An insurer will see all this as dodgy.* You need to find a place to store it off the road. Work, perhaps?

*Have you actually spoken to a broker, or just got on-line quotes?
