First of all, does anyone know a company that does 6 wheel insurance?
Nowhere ive called or checked has car+bike cover anymore, apparently it
wasnt popular enough to be worth it.

Second of all, why, now that Ive had my bike smashed up, stolen, have no
more NCD (used it on the car insurance) and have an sp30, has my
insurance gone down from £950 tpft 2 years ago, to £270 tpft?

And while Im at it, why does an sv650 cost £270 to insure, but an sv1000
costs £900? cunts, I wanted one aswell.

And, why oh why is it £20 cheaper to insure a bike in the middle of bury
park in luton, scum captial of the world, than it is on the outskirts of
st albans with a very very low crime rating?? A bike wouldnt last 5
minutes in luton, in fact mine didnt.

I'm sure Auntie Carol does it - they do car insurance now, at any rate.

I asked similar to these and other questions last time I renewed the cage
and got about 10 quotes from different on-line sources for the same
insurance company, with a £200 price spread.

The answer I got was along the lines of "you don't understand the insurance
market, and it's to complicated to explain"

As Rope says, Auntie Carole is now offering it.

I read somewhere that it's NOT just crime rates that they use for the
weighting.

Simple. St. Albans nobs can afford to pay more than Luton chavs so the
insurance company charges them more.
