Problems insuring a 4/6 hybrid
My current insurers (direct choice) have declined to insure my 4/6 hybrid.
What are others doing and where do I go from here? I'm not interested in it being a track bike as I don't do track days
If all else fails then it's for sale (£1300 including all of the 400 spares that came off for the change).
All advice welcome (& by PM if you want to be discreet)
Thanks

Re: Problems insuring a 4/6 hybrid
I was insured via Carole Nash. When my hybrid was ready for the road I phoned them up to change the policy. The current insurer also declined to cover me, so the broker cancelled that policy and opened up a new one with another insurer. Cost of new policy, about £100-£150, can't remember exactly.
Hybrids are insurable, just not with Direct Choice it seems!
I really must ask them some questions though, the paper work says the bike is an FZR600 with engine mods!

All of a sudden I found myself in love with the world,
so there was only one thing that I could do,
was ding a ding dang my dang a long ling long!

Re: Problems insuring a 4/6 hybrid
carole nash sorted the insurance for my hybrid .. worked out cheaper than insuring my standard zxr400 ..
the policy see's the bike as a 1995 zx6r with cosmetic mods .. rather than a 1991 zxr400 with a zx6r lump stuffed up it.

Re: Problems insuring a 4/6 hybrid
It looks like I'm sorted. It turns out my Dad did all of the legwork a few weeks ago to insure his bling custom Harley and he had ended up going round the houses as well.
Out of interest it's on cover now with Trinity Lane via Adrian Flux / Bikesure. £200 with 3yrs NCD, age 34, no pillions, no commuting, Stockport area for the modded 400 3TJ 4/6 hybrid and my modified FZR1000 EXUP. It would have been £150 for just the 4/6 hybrid.
Happy days... please stop raining so I can play!
