There will be loads of suggestions on here but have you tried direct line, i am getting some fantastic deals with them.

Look for one called H&R on the biketrader website. I used to get some good deals with them before I gave up the bikes, they are a broker but got me better deals than any direct site and they will do race cans etc aslong you tell them up front.

A few of my mates switched to them as they got better deals too.

Hopefully they are still on the biketrader.

4 years ago I paid £328 for a 2001 zx9r with H&R and the year after that I sold it and took a ZZR1100 mreg in part ex which cost me an unbeleivable £110 to insure and capable of over 170mph. it left my garage once and was sold to a mate 2 months later.

Still miss them though but everyone I know who still has one says they can't go anywhere with out getting hassled by the plod.

Hi  You could try ebike at ebikeinsurance.co.uk  quotes and policy management are all on line. I've always found them reasonable, I've insured my car with them too at ecarinsurance.  A newcomer to UK is QUINN Direct based in Ireland I think.  They seem to be competetive.

Good Luck.
Tony :y
