I seem to remember posting up that I'd noticed that trend last spring

Just been there and is still £500, comes down to £300 if you pay £260, £250 and you pay £250+

The £500 Compuls is inc £0 Voluntary @ £120 for the year (with Bennets)

Not sure on the excess but renewed the insurance on the oasis falco and been reading the small print..
They actually cover me to ride any bike third party only with owners permision :smt017 this includes hiring a bike
This is a dual policy with the two falco's
Tolerance will be our undoing.

Every policy I have ever had has included that cover, Jay

yep

that so called rider element vanished from being routine a while ago - at least five years ago in my case - I have to specifically ensure that is on my policies now


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

So what about multibike policies?, i'm thinking of getting the NC30 on the road and also the KR1S when its finished and as i can only ride 1 bike at a time i want a multibike policy.

I have both bikes on a multibike policy.
But the addition of being able to ride someone elses bike only popped up when renewing the oasis green bike policy, which is the second bike of the two for insurance purposes...
Mercury grey cost £297
Oasis £53
