Or something like that. I just renewed my insurance with Bennetts and along with my 5 year NCB they did it for 117 squids with RAC cover.

Not even ebike could match that.

Just got me SV650 insured fully comp with the AA for £92 :D
Dos'nt include any extras though.

Could have got £82 with an unknown company but did'nt want to take the risk.

No funnily enough I didn't try that. I will keep it in mind for the future and hopefully I don't get penilised for having the wrong bits.

Actually, I am the ultimate old fart: 52 years old, 4 years NCB, 3
points for speeding, 100 squid comprehensive insurance.

Would I swap my insurance premium for being 20 again? Nah. I am
looking forward to getting my free ski pass (most resorts provide
them for free after 75).

Overall, I would say the advantages of being young are overrated.

....not u rated comment that sounds painful...


Anyway, I can do the old bit, but the 5 years NCB is proving harder to acquire :(
