You really only know a premiums worth when it comes to claims time - I like to choose a policy with a decent underwriter - not some obscure one that I’ve never heard of
Exactly I buy low value scoots do them 3rd party fire theft they would be written off for cost of few panels anyway .

Ok so lots of thoughts about companies, what about the figures do they seem reasonable?

I'll be happy if y=that's what I'm quoted but I only have 2 years NCD. I'm not a young rider like you though.

I always aim at £100 for annual bike insurance for smaller machine as 125cc are a high risk (by comparison to numbers stolen) so average I pay around £70.
Bigger machines I expect to pay around £200

Snail it’s impossible to comment on price as your own circumstances are unique as are everyone else’s - insurance is all about risk - location of vehicle - type of vehicle - drivers experience etc etc etc - choose what’s best for you
