I bet a large chunk of that £102 is an admin fee for making a change mid term.Just changed my insurance over to the new steed. I feel like Ive been bent over the workbench and stiffed up the anal passage£102 extra for the new bike ?? Don’t it just make your blood boil ? Makes a total of £327 for the year.

Probably, what annoys me is in reality it costs em next to nothing to change the cover over.

Just renewed today, cheaper than last years
Del my Exclusive 1250 was £208 fully Comp and that’s with a 2 month ban for sp50 I cant divulge the speed though.
As Gazuk mentioned I wonder what the admin charge was. Enjoy the new bike mate.

Yeah thanks, i will just have to suck it up this year and get a better deal next year. Too much hassle changing three months into a new policy so will forget about it till next March when its due for renewal.

Best way to do it Delboy and to enjoy what you have now.
Mmmmm.....so this got me thinking. At what price of insurance would I say forget it? And of course this is a relative question, but it’s also a value point. “How much enjoyment do I get from this to warrant paying that.” I know it wouldn’t be £1.5k, but how much? What is the value point? It’s interesting how I’m ok to blow 18k on a bike; on a physical object, but how the running of it is a potential game changer. And of course would I get a lesser bike to increase the value point? Sliding scale I know for everyone.

FFS!
I only pay out about £500 for 4 bikes all on their own policies!
Those prices would have me moving.

Bennetts will have charged you a £32 admin fee despite selling you a dearer policy.

BASTIDS !!
Carol Nash charge £40 for a change in policy details. Last year I wanted to change my annual mileage limit from 6000mpa to 7000mpa. CN wanted to charge me c. £41.00. I asked them how much the insurance company wanted for the change. The answer was "45 pence". The rest was CN's admin fee. After much negotiation it was reduced to £25!

Just looked it up £32 charge for mid term adjustment ! So only £70 extra for a bike that was double the value of my previous one. Nothing else changed just the bike.
