They wanted a 30 quid admin fee to do the swop, which is fair enough, but then the nice lass at Carole Nash told me that I could change to fully comp for the horrendous sum of a fiver extra. So 35 quid saw me swop bikes and change to FC insurance on everything, including two trackbikes. Bargain
I hate you.



I have a 7th of the bikes you have at 5 times the cost

Thats a link to a site that searches loads of insurance places and gives a good break down of them all! It inclused H & S. Hope you find a cheap quote

I phoned bennetts today to change the last two weeks of insurance over to the aprilia falco Ive bought and they said they cant . So I cant ride my new bike till the 11th Feb... Great. I love insurance!

I was quoting myself happy for a new R1 and H&S were also the cheapest. Having said that i didn't really put much effort in. I only used thebikeinsurer.

Why not just start your falco policy now.....if you have a word on the phone i expect they will allow your no claims.

The more i read about other insurers the more i'm glad CN are my broker. I switched bike mid policy without charge and they even gave a good price. Usually if you switch part way through they rip you off....but not CN.

I might give them a ring as soon as I get paid at the end of this month... Im going to be cutting it a little tight this and next month... Though I do have a bit of money comming in from an injury I sustained 18 months ago. Didnt take long for that to come through lol

Anyone had any EXP with H&S? When I went on their site it says that you agreee there are no modifications which there arnt really at the mo,a belly pan is about it (which imo dont count) but im wondering i it means nothing major as most insurer's dont mind things like plastics endcans/ exhaust systems and that sort of thing. Ill ask all this when/if I ring up.

Cheers for the link.

Just checked and yes, I've managed to get a quote below £500. Think I'll probably be buying the sv1000s late this week unless some really stupid fault appears on the test ride.

NP mate.

If you are wanting a big twin I really recomend having a look at the aprilia falco! Its very similar in price arguably looks better, has better equipment as well. Worth having a look though either way .
