Insurance while building
« on: January 07, 2017, 11:22:08 PM »
Hi all,
A few of you good folks out there know that I'm in the middle of the build at the mo and all of you know these bikes cost a lot of money to get going. After doing a few quick calculations in my head I'm aware that if there was a theft or fire I would be well out of pocket.
Any ideas about insurance while the bike has no MOT and hasn't been on the road since 1998. I don't even know what it's worth!

So I need an insurance company recommendation and a rough way of calculating what I should insure it for.
Thanks.

Steve.

Good morning.

Try Footman James 'laid up cover' They say this:

'This valuable cover applies whilst your vehicle, its accessories and its spare parts are kept in a locked garage/building. Your classic motorcycle is also covered while it is temporarily out of the garage if you are exhibiting it, or having it repaired, in the UK (including while it is transported by trailer to and from the exhibition or repairers premises). Agreed Value option available on Laid Up policies'

Other providers are available
