Insurance Quote - Opinions required Urgently!!
 

Advice wanted...

I'm 28, had the SV for a year and my licence for a year Got a garage, ground anchor, monster lock. Previously ensured it with e-bike on a month by month basis, paying £65 a month (well over £700 pa).

Now I want to start riding more often and thought of getting insurance for a year. I figured that I need to get some NCD behind me, and not intending on making a claim I got the following quote from Hastings, which is about the best I've found so far. Here are the credentials:

Summary of Cover

Occupation IT Consultant
Insurer Advantage Insurance Company Limited
Bike Details SUZUKI SV 650 S

Do you guys think that this is a decent price? (FC with the same Fire and Theft access and £200 accidental damage excess was £491 - more than double)

Any one with similar predicaments/prices I would be glad to here from.

finally it is with Hastings, and the quote is only valid for today :roll: :roll: :roll:

Try H&R Insurance - best quotes for me.

Also take the Legal insurance - its only a few quid but is worth every penny if you have a dispute.

Also consider excess insurance :)

I have almost exactly the same circumstances as you except I live in London and I am looking at least £450. Most places try it on for £600.

Got a quote from them, comes to £243 without legal cover for TPFT, and a compulsory excess of £250, so that's about the same I think?

thanks for your advice though - much appreciated. 8)

ive been with hastings direct for years now and find each renewal no one can beat them, i pay £98.

22 1 year NCB

No Garage


TPFTH £218

Motorcycle Direct

try autotrader.co.uk/bikes

then goto insurance and fill your details in, they will send your details to a few different companys who will contact you with qutoes via telephone or email.

i did that, and got insurance cheap through A-quote this year .

I just insured mine with H&R at a cost of £122 tpft
and best still they accept American Express :shock:

Hi there.
I am 29 and I have just insured my sv 650s through bennets.
Its £248 per year fully comp and i havent even passed my test yet.
Might be worth a call

Its a good price to be honest. You may be able to beat, buts its how you value your time. I wouls stress that LEgal cover is a must with bike claims, it really is.
