Default Simply Bikes Direct Insurance

Anyone hear of them, anyone with them, anyone hear any stories?

Ive got a quote of about £450 fully comp with 4 years protected no claims on the Falco. Brilliant quote! So just wondering what the craic might be with the firm.

Cheers.

Sorry mate, no.

Who is your current insurer? I just checked a few price comparison websites, then phoned Bennetts as theyve got a 12 months for the price of 9 months sale on at the moment and they were very cheap. Then i went back to Motorcycle Direct who have been my insurer for the last 5 years and they beat it.

Definitely try Bennetts if you havent already. They havent been able to touch the price the last few years but they were £40 cheaper than anyone else this time around.

Fully comp £156! Now that is a good premium!

Git! how you get it so cheap... no NCB at a guess. Guess the bike must be in a low insurance group? Min is in 15 so quite high

I got a phone call from my current the other day MCE and they said £650 or something close to that, too much basically since it wa £712 for the last year, goes down by £60 for a year NCB, go away! I think ill phone them back and tell them that I have got a lower offer, that happened last time and they beat it...

Cheers

Greek. Have you tried Access Underwriters? I think ill be going with them when my renewal is up. I got a quote for a Ducati 749 ins grp 15 for £600 with only 1 years NCB and 1 Years Experience riding. Oh and that included the Sv insured FC also. They also protect your NCB no matter how many years you have for nothing.

Who is the underwriter - the actual company you'd be going with?
