Does your insurance go down a lot , I know that it does with car drivers , so does it apply the same way to motorbikes ? , also was anyone down Ace yday? lol

Failure is success if we learn from it.

It did for me mate, at 20 i was riding Bandits and Hornets and a couple of 500's and normal non-dispatch insurance was around 600-700 TPFT in NW10 ish so not the best area, when i turned 21 i was paying 370 for the same bikes and can now insure most sports 600 for around the 400 quid mark (and probably cheaper than that if i ring around), Im 23.

It could be that it was my accumilation of 3-4 years NCB dropped the price, but i think 21 is a cut off point for insurers.

I can dimly remember being 21... but insurance really got to be affordable at 28.

Now costs me about £200 a year for comprehensive cover on a ZX-9R - I could afford to insure just about any bike now I'm nearly 40.

If you're going to try and fly a bicycle, you'd better make sure ET is sat in the basket and not a twelve-pack of beer

Insurance and age is one of those funny things.

You get to 21 and they tell you that it will get cheaper when your 23/25. You get there and suddenly it's 28, and so on.

You get to.....er....my age, and then they want more. Apparently 40+ years experience, no major incidents, very few points (all expired), one theft claim in the last 30+ years don't count.

I'm now an "age related risk."

Enjoy being 21 to 50. It's insurance Nirvana if you keep your song sheet clean.
