Motorcycle insurance crazies

[crysis]

I am about to buy a motorbike that is 650cc. I just got off the phone with hippo.co.za and they tell me that because im under 25years old they wont insure me. Does any one know of a reputable insurance company that wont screw me over with huge premiums?

Cheers

Go to a Bike insurance company who specializes in Bike insurance. I think one is called Bikesure. Not 100% sure. I have mine together with everything else on my Alexander Forbes policy as I'm 34. Bike I know from experience Bike specific insurance companies can't be beat if you need insurance for the bike only.

Bikesure is good, buddy of mine has his MTB insured with them. Just read the fine print, they are very specific with regards to theft payout.

Bike specific insurance companies usually have allot of additional excesses. They have super low premiums and some of them allow track days but the excesses can be a bit much. You can try montblanc.

Back in the day I insured my bike with Apex and it wasn't expensive. Mind you it wasn't a super or sportsbike as they do load your policy for those, even more if you are a young buck.
