YAIT - Yet Another Insurance Thread - SV650.org

I've got my requote through from CIA insurance.

With three year no claims I'd have expected my insurance to have gone down. For third party only they want £450. It was £301 until I told them about the three points. *uck that!

I'm 21 and looking for something more realistic otherwise the bike is going. Anyone under similar circumstances and getting a good deal?

Incidently I'm looking for a TMAX and the insurance is £350. Still way too high.

Andy.

£450 3PFT for a 21 year old with points on his licence... sounds pretty reasonable to me!

It's part of being young and having points on your licence... you'll grow out of it

Only advice I can give is keep looking around. I got a good quote from BikeTeam. Link on the mainsite and discount to if I remember correctly.

Try motorcycle direct, i've just insured my SV650 through them, it's my first bike, i've got three points and a car accident claim which was a 50/50 fault and they charged me £300 TPFT. The bike is garaged and has a datatool.

BillyC ... I know but its third party ONLY (no fire and theft) and 3yr no claims. £450 is stupid!

£450 + maintenance + fuel + £65 tax -v- £250 bus pass ....

It's your decision mate. I am sure no-one here will try to convince you one way or t'other.

£550 tpft for me, 23 y/o, 2 year NCB, no convictions, no claims/accidents for a 2000 650S stored off the road.

Think yourself relatively lucky, I have to pay about £800 for my FC insurance which is required by the finance company.

Oh, tp only, hmm, let me get a requote.
Ok, £309, which is ok, but I'd much rather have the theft insurance, personally.

Perhaps I'll forget the 3 points
