Hey all, thought i'd throw this out there, found a website called Ebikeinsurance.co.uk
looking to insure an XR125L AND Fireblade 900 (1997- 918cc)
they have quoted me 86.87 a month in the pay and go scheme.
seems a little too good to be true.
is this a great deal for a 24 year old rider who passed on halloween this year. or are there hidden pit falls let me know folks i'd appriciate it.

It's not too shabby, whats that, £1100 in total? Passing your test 3 weeks ago will have done you no favours, no ncb, first big bike, £1100 is okay. PAYG is more expensive than normal cover too.

Dont use them myself. I use NEbike insurance!

Never heard anything bad about them though!

its quite a bit cheaper if you dont use pay as you go.

ebike give good prices but if you ring motorcycle direct and pretend your ebike quote was lower than it actually was, you will insured for even cheaper money

i was quoted a good price by these too

riders choice were the next cheapest, he refused to quote against e-bike as they are not an english company, they are based in gibralta and are very new, hence the cheap quotes.

i decided against going with e-bike as it worrys me, should i have to make a claim or they go bust , it could all go wrong.

try riders choice if you haven't already, they were only a bit more than e-bike and much more helpful

i dont think there is anything wrong with ebike, loads of people use them
other insurers will tell you any old guff to stop you going for a company that quotes lower and motorcylces direct will undercut them anyway

I'm through Ebike & I'm paying £93 per month PAYG (TPF&T). I only just passed on 4th October this year & I'm riding a K4 GSXR600. I have found that even though it is pay as you go, it is still quite a competitive quote, and if I were to pay for a full year, there wouldn't be that much difference.

I have my Aprilia RS125 through them as well for which I was paying £30 a month (TPO), and I also have 2 insurance claims going through with them (1 for my RS & 1 for my Gixxer, both not my fault!), and they seem to be pretty efficient so far.

the guy i talked to is well respected at riders choice and he explained everything to me and was not telling me any old thing to sell me his insurance.

he said to me by all means go with e-bike but he couldn't beat their quote

if a country is based abroad for tax reasons it doesnt mean that they are necessarily dodgy

eBike were about £400 cheaper than any other quote and I couldn't fault them when I had to claim back in July.

What's this PAYG service then? Pay month by month without a fixed term or something?

I went with ebike because their quote was close to all the others, and they offer free breakdown with the cover, which the others that quoted comparably didn't. If you see what I mean?

FWIW I used the breakdown, and it was fine, and they didn't charge me for it.

I read these insurance quotes and I shudder at the price. I'm with eBike and I got my ZX6R and GPZ500S insured TPF&T and I pay 260 quid a year. Only passed my bike test in May, must be due to me being an old git

With e-bike, you get a years no claims after 8 months if you use the pay as you go.....thats bloody brilliant.

I'm with ebikes, and paid £212 for two bikes on tpf&t .... (ZX400R & ZX600R) with business cover too.

They beat my previous insurance re-newel quote by £60.00

Can't wait to see what they going to quote me when it's due in July next year, will have 3 years ncb too

[pocket_Rocket]

ebike quoted me 1350 on a zx6r and im 18 with no no claimes bonus and in london, the rest i tried were way over 3k, don't know how but they are 2k cheaper!!!

[nrml76]

Try dwlaxton. They quoted me £400 fully comprehensive for a kawak ZR7-S 5 days after i passed DAS. I am 29 and have 3 points on my licence. The bike is not garaged (merseyside), unlimited mileage, breakdown and legal cover included and carrying pillions permitted .
Okay, the ZR7-S is not the most expensive bike in the world, but it is still a big bike and my profile is not exactly insurance friendly.
