Insurance

As a historic vehicle there's no need to tax the bike and it is MoT exempt. It does have to be in roadworthy condition. 

However, everyone needs insurance. 

Currently it has theft cover as a non-runner. There's no need currently with it not able to be ridden on the road to have any third party liability.

So with it soon to be back on the road, it needs on-road insurance.

Firstly I did the Meerkat shuffle. Comparethemarket.com, and got a quote for £68 fully comp from the RAC. I prefer not to pay any excess as all companies enforce some on you. 

Then to Footman-James classic insurance - £142 fully comp. GULP!!

Both with a 3000 mile limit per year. I might tweak the Meerkat offer and see what the increased mileage is before the price goes up

I then did the Go Compare  comparison site and came up with this one. Includes breakdown and legal.

Tempting?
