Which insurance co?

[SWC]

Thought it would be good to know who is paying how much & who with.... seems insane that it costs as much to insure one bike as it does to insure my Super Sports Motorbike

Mine are covered on my home insurance. One is named, the others are covered as standard on the policy (AA)

Its normally 10% of the value, or combined value of any bikes on there. Mines £55 for a 550 bike,

The amount of insurance people are paying is and will be meaningless, because there are so many variables to take into consideration. It will mean absolutely nothing.

Certainly where part of the home insurance mix, however I think the specific bike insurance companies base on the cost of the bike (and level of cover, other services, alleged sign on discounts)

But, they also take into consideration where you live, as well as other things as well. Its not a case of to insure this bike will cost x amount of money even with bike specific policies.

House insurance. Separate cycle insurance to insure bikes individually is a rip off. Just self insure and buy good D-locks. Make sure you have 3rd party cover though by joining British Cycling.

What's a Super Sports Motorbike?

Dunno, I think when I looked it cost about double the amount to insure the three bikes at the time than to insure the bikes, the rest of my contents and the building!

I just saved £584 on my car insurance. Now, as long as I don't get stopped by the police in the next year, I'm laughing.

A mobile coffin then.

I have two bikes, total value £1500, on my house contents insurance, . They jacked up the premium by £22. Compared to a bike specific policy, it's an absolute steal (sorry). The good bit is that they don't have the stupid, fraudulent weasel clauses about bike locks, abandonment, railway stations etc that the bike specific wallahs do. The downside is that if you claim for a bike, they will screw you on the house contents insurance premium when you renew.
Utter bastards and ragged spivs, the lot of them.
