Does anyone have Insurance with Swann "The Riders Choice"?
I'm just getting some quotes for my G/F's 2004 CBR600RR, I've put the same details into 3 different websites

Insure my ride = $425.34
Shannons = $538.52
Swann (did I mention they're "The Riders choice"?) =$2,249.21 or I could do weekend rider plus for $1,799.37 which covers her for "weekends and Annual leave days"
I put the details into Swann twice 'cos I thought I MUST have got it wrong! ..Nope!

At that price sounds like they would be rideing you and loving it

they should call it "the rider's rip off" my 06 zx6 was $640,my 06 zx10r was $720 with insure my ride.

When I had my 250R they were ok for the first year (Can't remember the exact amount, but reasonable). However, when renewal time rolled around they wanted something ridiculous like $1700.

I was in the process of getting rid of it to make way for my ZX6, but the price was retarded all the same. Now I own the ZX6 and that $1700 doesn't seem all that bad... It's worth every extra cent though!

Yeah got a quote too when i got the z last month,

Swann - $2180
Shannons - $935
Insure my ride - $1560

I was blown away at the diff..

im surprised. I compared RACV, Swann, IMR and for thir party and swann was cheapest at 180 and didnt charge extra for mothly payments

When i first got my 93 ZXR750 in 2000, they charged me $1450 for a $5000 bike, Jackasses.
Shannons for the gumby is just on $800 oh country living

Swann is the cheapest for me by a country mile...but I am an old bastard.

C'mon guy's...the Swann is very graceful...and you must pay for Grace

looks like all the old dudes that dont ride anywhere get a great deal from swann..

shannons $700.00
Swann $618.00
Insure my ride $509.00
Im thinking i might switch from shannons ??

No one has mentioned Western QBE......... I found they offered the best deal for me.........

Full Comp Western QBE...05 ZXR6 $625

They have hidden discounts that you have to dig for,.... club membership for one example ask lots of questions about how you can reduce the premium.
I spent years just renewing with the zeddy without even looking at the details cause it was cheap but the sports bike attracted a substantial increase so that made me sit up & take notice & was amazed how much of a discount was there for the taking

One advantage of being over 40 I suppose.

Highest bike rating and being an older karn 750 shannons.
I should have shopped around but it was better than 1250 for same bike 3 years ago so I took it.

I'm down as the youngest rider Hoffy (43) and it's for low use, as I said if she'd gone the option of weekends and annual leave only it still would have been $1800 odd, and she has a 65% no claims bonus!?
