Motorcycle Insurance 2017?
 

I've looking around and using comparison sites for the best deal.I was with Carol Nash but their quote seems a little high for me at over £200 for a Stock 1999 Curvy (I have 9 years plus Protected no claims and ain't young).

The cheaper quotes,when I checked reviews,all threw up some unsatisfied reports but that's the same for a lot of things I've found.

Bennets/MCE etc

Devitt seemed to have some decent reviews.

I may be able to negotiate a better deal with Carol Nash so will call them tomorrow.


Any pointers appreciated :)

I've used mce, bennets and now carol nash. One benefit of carol nash is that their breakdown is bike specific not just an AA man and you currently get free DNA+

The company giving me the cheapest quotes recently has been Hastings Direct.
Fully comp, £150 excess, seven years protected no claims, worked out at £110 for a brand new AL7
Carol Nash were ridiculously more expensive at £231

Great guys.All good info.I'll have a look at Hastings but some bad reviews,

DomP: I already have,"Alpha Dot" on the bike so don't need DNA.No need to double up but thanks anyway.

I can get Devitt for £107 and separate breakdown cover for £35.

You'll always get dodgy reviews for insurers, they're all much the same in that regard.
What you don't see are the thousands of folk who don't have any bother at all ;)

Re: Motorcycle Insurance 2017?
 

I agree.There can be thousands of satisfied customers with all of them.

Re: Motorcycle Insurance 2017?
 

Generally speaking, that's always the case. It doesn't necessarily mean any one company is totally good or totally bad, it is just the nature of people - they remember the bad more than the good.

I am with Bennetts - very good except that any small change will cost me dear. I underestimated the mileage I would do so *kerrr-ching* £35 to increase it a bit. They will get the choice to increase it free or lose me to another company at renewal time.

I'm an older rider with zero no-claims and they only asked me £140 for my curvy.

Hastings don't allow buy back so you face losing your bike in a claim

Re: Motorcycle Insurance 2017?
 

Yes I think I read that on one of the reviews :/

That's not bad.I've seen posts about Bennet's charging a lot for the click of a mouse button :(
