Insurance renewal time

Post by duke63 »

I was hoping for a small saving this year having swapped the Multi for the Street but the quote is almost the same.


Wondering if it’s worth insuring the Ducati separately or even just going down to one bike.

Isn't the Duke a classic or does the work you've had done to it make it a custom bike?

Going to try classic quotes but I suspect it might have had too many mods to it.

I’m insured with Bikesure now. I get the impression that these days insuring with the same company two years running for anything is a mugs game.

I’ve got classic insurance on the GB, with a collectors specialist insurer here in Aussie. I just got my renewal today. $31 cheaper than last year with the same agreed value.

For $5000 value my yearly premium is $229.00 (approx £120)

Only if you just let it renew.

Do some quotes on the comparison sites and then phone them up. You can really confuse the people on the phone when they have to price match themselves.
