Shopping around for insurance on the (soon to be delivered) bike - simple, right?
Comp sites + Hastings, Devitt, etc.
55 years old
Full bike licence since 1979
Never made a claim on a bike in 38 years
Bound to be a model customer with a subsequently cheap policy
However:
The retail of the new bike is considered "unusually high" (Bennetts).
I've had a 15 year gap in riding.
I've got zero bike related no claims due to the gap.
I've had a single claim in the last 5 years, but it was a £40K total loss payout on a car.
Ah, not so simple now
Some declines and other premiums in excess of £1K
Advice/recommendations?
