What’s the most you have paid for bike insurance?
Greentea: In a reply to another post Philehidiot mentioned £4,500 for insurance. That’s about £86 per week. That seems a lot to pay!
Philehidiot: For me on a Fireblade the quote I got was £4,500 whereas some of the guys here will get that for £200. Insurance is very very variable.
Jason: I’m 17 years old, 0 NCB, £2,000 bike, I got one quote for about £7,000 fully comprehensive insurance, so I could total my bike three times and still have enough left over for new kit. I eventually tracked some insurance through MCE Insurance for £400 Third Party Fire and Theft. Pretty good and excellent service.
Gizzabreak: In 1982 I brought my second bike, which was a brand new Honda CB250N Superdream. The bike cost about £800, and my insurance fully comprehensive was about £500, so nearly the costs of the bike.
