The most tediously oft-asked question on BCF is 'what company is good for cheap insurance?'

There is NO SINGLE COMPANY THAT IS CHEAP FOR EVERYBODY. If there is, why would anyone use any of the others?

The cost of anyone else's insurance is COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT to the cost of your insurance.

The price you will be quoted depends (amongst other things) on:

- The bike
- The age of the bike
- Your age
- Your sex
- How long you've had your licence
- What bikes you've previously insured
- Your no claims bonus
- Where you live
- What your job is
- How many miles you intend to do in a year

Etc. etc.

In order to get the cheapest insurance quote for you, you need to buy yourself a copy of MCN or any bike mag with lots of insurance adverts in the back, and PHONE EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM.

Yes, I mean *every single one of them*. Some will quote ridiculous money, some will be alright, some might even be good. Narrow the options down to the best few (taking cover, excess, extras into account) and ring them back, telling them what another company has offered and asking them to beat it. Repeat this until you get a quote that you are happy with.

It could easily take you an entire day to do this, but you could be saving yourself hundreds of pounds... how much is your time worth?


Also, take note that some companies will now accept a No Claims Bonus which was earned on a car - if you have car ncb you're not using, it's worth asking all the companies you phone as ncb is one of the prime price-reducing factors.

Not at all accurate, how can you group HX1 and HX3 together?

HX3 spreads a wide area around, it covers the worst of council estates to some of the most luxury houses. I dont live in a luxury house but i do live in a very good HX3 area, i know that i couldn't move to a better area for insurance cus my dads an insurance broker and my Mother only pays £170 a year on her Micra with 1 years NCB, it would be difficult to find a cheaper car quote for anyone.

Anyone from Halifax would back me up on this.

On the other hand the BD one seems very accurate, everywhere expensive until you get to the high numbers.

Thought I should add this

https://www.ebikeinsurance.co.uk/

Got some silly quotes from Bennett's, 400+, ebike got me down to 275 on no riding experience, no ncb, on a zx1 and you get free DAS legal cover and free breakdown cover.

Thumbs Up

Those A-F classifications may be useful as a general guide, however they aren't that accurate.

When I moved from a C are to a B area I had insurance companies compare my postcodes as I was going to spend some time at each.

Every company I asked had my C area postcode down as lower risk than the B area one.

I'd be semi inclined to agree , my M post code covers some ££££££ houses (prices 400K+) and gang banger city , a little futher down is the town centre where there are only council houses and a 95% dole rate, with druggies hoes and daily drive bys and chav fights, the cops got smart and don't open their police station past 3pm either, too dangerous for them

I was pleasantly surprised when I was quoted £170 for fully comprehensive on my GS500. Or £140 fro TPF+T.
I live in North Wales.

I found Bennits quiet crap to be honest.
Because I work in a public house theres more chance of it being trashed. Yet no other insurance company even bothered with that excuse.
Just goes to show that it dose differ alot with each person.

One thing I've always wondered, why do they ask you your occupation? I don't see that it matters unless you will be using your vehicle for work.

Took the words right out of my mouth Fuzz. I've always wanted to know that too. What does it matter if your a barman, or a nursery teacher? If it was something like taxi driver or pizza delivery then yeah.

It's all about statistics.

If they get 10% of doctors making a claim every year, but 70% of librarians, then they're going to load your policy for being a librarian as you're statistically more likely to claim.

I used to get reamed because I worked for a record company, with some companies unwilling to even quote me. Now I do almost the same job but I'm self employed and the same companies are all climbing over themselves to insure me. Rolling Eyes

Absolutely

I am unemployed but because I am purposely unemployed looking after my baby son, it's WAY cheaper. I am a house-husband. So words matter...

Also always remember, if you phone up, the person on the other end can discount you from their bonus... Smile - just ask for it...

How are you all getting like £150 - £200 for your quotes. I am just about 16, and looked up the cost for Third Party, Fire and Theft insurance on an Aprilia RS 50, restricted at 30mph, used for recreational purposes only, and it came to, lowest, £800! Thats more than the bike is worth itself (second hand)!!!

I will certainly take a look at some of the websites up... and I will go out and get my MCN as well! Very Happy thanks

Hi All

I've found www.directchoice.co.uk a good place to start.

My insurance for the VTX1300 & JL250 TPFT £170 with no no claims bonus.

Chituma CTM125 + 2 other named drivers(both cbt only) + 1yr NCB £77

For my girlfriend TPFT Suzuki GZ125 £97.00 with no NCB.

I spent hours scowering the internet and none came in cheaper.

Cheers
