Your not insured if you don't. I can't imagine anyone is going to admit to it, although some may be silly enough too.

Always. Hate the thought of the insurance companies weasiling out of a payment!

not giving the insurers an inch.
it depends upon what it is and if the insurer wants to know about it. But still try and declare them all

How much does it hike up your premiums, if you know the difference?

If I knew all of the mods on my SV I could declare them...but I'm still stumbling upon new ones when I explore the bike.

Unless they majorly affect performance, they don't tend to affect the premium that much in my experience.

Of the two people I know who work in insurance, neither declare the mods on their own bikes, short of you boring out the engine to a litre or fitting an entirely new frame from another bike your claim won't be rejected because you haven't declared the mods...

Make of that what you will, Adrian Flux only ask you to declare mods to the engine, frame or fairing which is sensible

from what i can gather its all a bit of a mess when in comes to mods one company didn't care and sead they just put modded on the policy, MCD didn't care about the small things. and some other company my dad rung wanted to know them all and apparently the bloke sounded shocked when my dad told him what had been done. none of them mods have increased the price though
