Fleck Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 I've just renewed my insurance this morning.£87 and I feel EPIC! Tried twice now to get a multi bike policy and it would have been £120 for the remaining 9 months! Bloody scams. Anyway I just wanted to tell somebody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikestrivens Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Good result. I’m not convinced that multi car or bike policies are a good deal but I guess they work sometimes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bender Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 I have not had a competitive multi quote ever, annoying thing is you can get a trade policy with as many vehicles you like with a capped claim amount for less than it costs to insure 2 cars.Glad you happy with renewal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fleck Posted December 8, 2018 Author Share Posted December 8, 2018 If you ever feel salty about insurance please remember that I pay £1200 a year... Wow! I couldn't pay that, something would have to change, like bike, location or cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

learningtofly Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 £1405 for my first year - most other quotes were circa £2500-3000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fleck Posted December 8, 2018 Author Share Posted December 8, 2018 What level of cover do you use? If your insurance is stupidly expensive you could just insure 3rd party only. You could probably pay for a new bike in what you save after a couple of years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bender Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 I had unlimited vehicles and a recovery truck, mine was limited to no hyper performance and a maximum payout ceiling on said vehicles per claim, which makes multi car policies a complete rip-off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah - it's an £11k bike and my premiums will drop in years to come - can't do tpft. £1405 for my first year - most other quotes were circa £2500-3000 Holy moly that's extortionate! You're old!

Sadly I’ve had two claims in the car over the last couple of years. I also have a London postcode and no garage.To be fair, the Street Twin was about £700 cheaper than the Triple.
