I recently had to change my insurers so I could get a green card for Morocco. I paid �215 for fully comp for the XTZ and FJR1300 with Carole Nash, which includes European breakdown and recovery but not the card (I'm 61, never had a claim). Seemed pretty reasonable to me, compared with what I had been paying for the 2 separately (Hastings wouldn't do multibike policies at the time), although I've heard of a few who are disenchanted with CN.

Age = 43. Live in very low crime postcode. Bike kept chained to railings in communal car park (flats). Back to bikes only 2 & a half years ago, so still no NCD. I have 12 years NCD on cars - don't know if this makes any differrence.... Anyway, my insurance with Just Bikes last September was around �280 comprehensive. I expect it to eventually go down assuming I don't claim......
Only advice: come renewal time - shop around & compare!

I got a quote from Benetts for the Z. �80 fully comp. All mods declared and IAM.

I think they made an error somewhere.......

seems some of you are getting very good deals here. I commute, store my X outside (under rain cover & locked with whacking great chain), in communal car park. I do around 8k miles pa. Does a garage & non-commuting really help that much?
Maybe this explains my relatively high premium???
