I know this is a bit dragging up an old topic, but ive been looking for insurance and i just got quoted 1500 for a 125 Sr!
Anyone know any half decent insurers?
All depends on age and amount of no claims, where you live, the amount of steps you walk up a day ect. If you put in the time ringing up people you will get the insurance halfed at least. It pays of beleive me.

just do it Sam, yeah it may be boring, but if it takes u all day and saves u £200 on a quote (which it did for me) then it's worth it. Just try as many as u can
you might be better ringing people up,As far as i know computers dont get commission.It's telling the insurance people a low qoute froma prevuis insurer you have just rung that gets the price dowm. Some will even say that if you find a qoute cheaper than the one given to get back to them, and they will beat it.
good luck in the most boring bit of biking

you will be on to the good stuff before you know it.

Cheapest I've had so far is £1250 ish tpft with 1 years ncd.
