I would also appreciate words from any number cruncher, legal eagle or self employed person as to what sort of overheads would be involved, do you have to be insured, to what extent etc.

I have "ride other bikes" cover on my own insurance for the SV, but to use this for test riding a job bike would be sailing rather close to the wind I think.

A few friends are self employed and have taken me through some of the vagaries and robberies of dealing with HMRC.
