I was with Bikesure but now looking to go with RH.
Already have my 1967 Trophy there...now need the Street Twin and Husky.
Bikesure insist on permanently locked in the shed, any time of day, which is ridiculous. RH just say 22.00 to 06.00 or somesuch, which is fair enough. Hopefully still doing it.

I just did my annual trawl last week and got a 3 bike multi bike with Carole Nash for £244 fully comp for a Tiger 800XC, a XJR1200 and a XS1100.
The funny thing was that I was with Aviva and they wanted £200 more than what CN could do for me with, guess who, Aviva. :roll:

I'm in the same boat from august 10 . Buell is on separate single bike policy but my other bikes are all ,(although on SORN) insured til Aug. Then I'm looking too for a new multi that has low admin/alteration charges so I can add (or remove) extra bikes over the period without hoooog expense.
Any one ? :)

I tend to alternate between CN and Bennetts, playing one off against the other but never automatic renewal trick!

Also, insurance seems to get cheaper by how high you can put the excess.
Higher excess equals lower premium. What a load of old bollox. :idea:

Exactly what I end up doing. I'm more than happy to take that first year 'introductory price' then put in the minimal effort to change every year :D

I went through bike sure for my Himalayan. What annoyed me was how many websites, including so called specialist bike insurers, did not recognise the model. Also the Royal Enfield scheme was vastly more expensive. Unfortunately it will be a long while before it is old enough to go on my classic policy, which is with Peter James who have been great.
