Insurance

Post by R3Dknight »

WTF!

I had a '05 636 last year when I was 23-24 and my insurance with suncorp, full comp was $1050. Now I am 25 and asked for a price on the same bike and they quoted me $1600!!!

Can someone please tell me where to get the best price for insurance?

Arista, Shannons and Western QBE to name a few. Get quotes from all and more if you can, but it always depends on your individual circumstances.

Really depends.... Different companies care about different factors...

WQBE was the best price for me....

Things that make a HUGE difference.... Hitting 30, How often you say you are going to ride the bike (some companies wont even insure ppl that ride to work every day)... Neighbourhood, Retail price of the bike.

You'll find that the age is now 30 and it doesn't go do that much esp if you don't have perfect driving record.
