Fookin heck. Is that cos you're in London? That's compared to the £230 I paid TPFT for my first year on the SV (after one year no claims on 125), second year a little bit more...

And baring in mind it's only recently changed so any quotes you do now they'll be taking the mick, will probably have calmed down a bit by summer next year...she hopes fervently...

I am in London (fairly central) and the bike is parked on the road (pavement in fact) chained to a lamp post. No alarm. But I did try with alarm out of curiosity and it made no difference to the quote whatsoever.
This really does take the biscuit! £700!!!!!!!!!!!

mine went down to under £100 for up to 4 bikes. I love being old.

NO NO NO! Don't even go there! (I don't know if you can)

How much extra has it gone up by Agy?

At the moment I'm paying 600 odd per year and looks to be the same or more. The shocker is in the fact that after your first year you expect to FINALLY see a difference in your premium. I'm pretty sure in the olden days I would have been paying at least 150 less

I just got a quote last year my street triple r (675) was around £550 now I have a BMW K1200R with an extra yr NCB £375.
