SV Free Insurance...do u get NCB?
 

If I were to buy an SV with the free insurance deal, does anyone know if this counts towards my building up of a NCB or do I personally have to pay for it before it counts?

Ta. :)

if you have a legitimate policy number of course it will count. IMHO

Yes you get your no claims if you dont claim..just like any normal policy, except your not paying for it 8)

"Not paying for it" - yer 'aving a larf, int yer? :shock:

eh?....if something is free...then you dont pay for it!..free insurance with the SV is free...???

It's free, until you have to argue with Suzuki UK over the warranty (or lack of) you got with the bike ;) Personally, I'd rather have a longer warranty than free insurance.

every bike comes with warranty...2 years...???....details of which are in your service book.

so what wouldnt they cover for you?.

anyway..not to derail the thread... :roll: 8)

The warranty for older models strictly stated that it was void if you didn't maintain service schedules AND use an approved Suzuki dealership. Nice cost there ;)

For my K6, it doesn't say anything except it has to be someone "suitably mechanically able", but the service schedule must still be adhered to.

Miss a service by even a few hundred miles, and it'd give Suzuki UK something to argue about.

After reading many posts on the forum over the time I've been here, it seems that ANYTHING they can do to get out of honoring the warranty, they will.

This isn't so much a problem with the dealerships, as they act as a franchise, but more from Suzuki themselves.

So yes, a new bike (like mine) comes with a 2 year warranty, but I'm prepared to fight to get it enforced when I have to, not if I have to.

The Mrs was actually under the impression that the warranty also covered things like tyres, bulbs, services... if only eh? :lol:

Is this "free" insurance fully comp or just TPFT?

Well after my experience and arguements with Ford over the years regarding warranty claims, I can safe noone really likes to honour them so I'd rather have the free insurance and hopefully build up a years' NCB in the process as my first year is likely to be my most expensive to insure, particularly as I don't have the option of an extended warranty anyway and would have to argue my case regardless!

Is the service schedule based on age or mileage btw?
