Noble Dave Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 How many years no claims pal? Plus rather new model bike so may not be as much history into claims with em, on which due to the unknown will increase premiums Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bender Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 If you don't check insurance prices before getting the bike then you run the risk of a surprise.It will come down next year if your good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

potatobroxd Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 avoid pink pound insurance; its called right choice insurance and should always be the cheapest quote most of the time. They'll screw you over and waste your time so youll eventually be a lot better of buying from more reputable insurers like mce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

runningman Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Wow.....Some scary insurance quotes. Under £100 fc on my 13 plate Street Triple R. Only started out at £220 fc as a new rider with zero ncb 5 years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brad93 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 I’d say that’s cheap. I’ve been getting quotes for when I pass my MOD1&MOD2 and am getting quoted nearly £1000 for SV650’s and Er6N’s. At that price I don’t know if I’ll even bother Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
