Insurance renewal
Got my insurance renewal from Hastings Direct today, fully comp with a total excess (compulsory + voluntary) of £200 for a 53 plate K3 naked.
On Gocompare Hastings came up with a lower quote so I rang them to see if I could get a better price. Without changing any policy details, I was offered a £23.93 discount bringing the premium down to £87.69 if I paid today instead of waiting a week for the regular renewal date. Result.

Re: Insurance renewal
Wow that's cheap!
Carole Nash just sent me a renewal of £758. Managed to get them down to £670. That's with euro breakdown, helmet and leathers cover and excess protection. Still sickening though! |

Re: Insurance renewal
Older and cleaner licences help massively.
My Striple ,765 RS is £180 £200 excess, with the usual legal etc +recovery add on .

Re: Insurance renewal
Yeah, I'm retired and live in rural south Norfolk. 1 SP30 on my licence (car). GoCompare suggested 4 other slightly lower quotes but with higher excesses.
