no such thing as an average cost - postcode, age, driving experience, points, garage, security, occupation, annual mileage, commuting, other vehicles, and others all play a part.

Phone all the agents and try and bargin down the price - play them off against each other.

I found Devitts the cheapest, for what that's worth.

just keep phoning around

i found express good also bennets seem ok with new riders

also worth doing a search through one of those that compare a load for you.

its a boring job, but i got mine from £3000 down to £600

That's a good deal!

I'm 19, 0yrs ncb, clean licence, very good area and they want £1200!!

Guess the 1yrs ncb makes all the difference!

What makes a HUGE difference is age , if I remember correctly , hitting 21 and 25 drops a huge wodge off the premium as they think you are more responsible ......... and we all know thats a LOAD

Guess also the fact the bike will be new so insured at £4700 will make a difference, always forget that factor!

I generally hate insurance, paid out over £2k for last two year of insurance on the bloody car and not needed the insurance once!
