Wonder if there is a "modern sarcastic" policy - I'd qualify for that no problem...

I wasn't so lucky with that one Pookie. They didn't want to insure a gas guzzler

I presume a 6 wheel policy is one where you can insure your bike and car on the same policy? I looked into this a couple of years back. Apparently you can use your car NCB with your bike, but not your bike NCB with your car. Strange for a specialist bike insurer...

That'd be great for me as I have 7 years NCB for a car, but, only 2 for a bike.

What happens to the bike NCB? Does it accrue or is it just "forgotten" about?

Not sure about the ncb but had to supply my car ncb proof. They can provide split cover for car / bike. EG 3rd party car and fully comp bikes. All the bikes had to have the same cover so either all comp or all 3rd party fire and theft.

The good thing is that you get benefits across the policy so breakdown and legal is included for both. It was touch and go as to when the car / policy was due but in the end after several calls back it worked out well.

Be aware that they will constantly call you when your insurance is due. I had to repeatedly tell them that I had already taken out a policy.
