XTZ = £55
You're showing your age "advantage" there mate
Think I'm paying around £200 TPFT for the TDM. 6 points don't help though
2009 900 abs, 42k miles, Yamaha heated grips, double bubble screen, R&G crash bungs, scottoiler, Autocom, 1500 lumen LED spotlights.

For my 37yr old 6ft6in self and my 1992 TDM and 1990 Gixer 750L fully comp with Full no claims too £120!!
They did want £200 but when i said that my current insurer was only £190 the went away and came back with £120 yes I did fall of my chair and quadrupled checked what they was true and it was...
Give'em ago it might be worth it.

phoned bennetts to check some of the details as the points line was mixed up on the form with the accident
3 bikes(all modifications/changes reported to the insurers) on same policy with Bennetts
best quote they can do £336.38 TPFT for 27yr old rider with a points conviction & 2 accidents
but...the extras
legal cover £25.99
bikeguardplus £59.00
Personnal Accident cover £24.99
Helmet & Leathers cover £48
online quote with carols gash
£248.51 inc legal & breakdown cover
thats over £180 difference
get back on the phone to bennetts and askthem to price match
they say best we can do is £255 inc legal & breakdown, so i pay the extra for personal accident and drop the leathers cover
fine i'll take that, for the sake of under a tenner difference i'll stay with those that have been helpful
note to my elf: get a quote for carol&her gash everytime renewal comes in.....

But if I still had my old Varadero 125 I would have to pay nearly £250 for fully comp with the 3 years N.C.B..... where's the logic in that?
