In the last 6-12 months the BMW GS/GSA WC has gone up 3-4 insurance groups as they have become the most likely bike to be nicked, for spares

Everyone is moaning how much their premiums have risen - so just ring around for the best deal

Try some of the other comparison sites like compare the market.
I found different prices from the same companies,both higher and lower.

When I had my k1200lt, Bmw insurance was the best quote for most of the 7 yrs I owned it.

will go a 2nd on that, also have you noticed as you go in and out of sites the prices goes up due to a bit of clever marketing software, i always book me flights though a different pc and loggin after i have trawled through the prices.

When you look for quotes online clear your history before the next time you look or it can be more expensive.

I've been recommended these guys: -
http://www.principalinsurance.co.uk/
as an up-an-coming decent broker to deal with. Not had chance to try them yet but I'm so pissed off with the service and prices from the usual suspects I'm looking for someone new for my next bike.
