please only comments to help

Hi im new here ive been driving my RS 50 (new shape very nice

wud recomend to any 16 year old looking for a bike!) for 1 year now so i understand thats my 1 year no claims bonus if the insurance alows it

but what im really trying to get at her is can i get insured on a 1.4 Furio OR 1.6 VTR for under £2.000 (preferably £1.500)

and who with? been looking thru the forums and i think im guna give quin direct a call?

also, if i want tinted windows, cd player+subwoofer etc and a backbox exhaust and maybe alloys, do i need to tell my insurance about these? if so which ones and how much do u reckon itd cost?

Much appreaciated!

Also im selling a RS 50 The new shape i belive its 2006 (standard) done about 1700 miles

or willing to part exchange for a Furio or VTR

PM if inerested can supply pictures i have cover for the bike lock, and all the documents (i bought from new) ive hardly been on it as its too fast for me and im not a bike kinda guy, but this bike is amazingly quick and beats ne other 50cc standard

Would have to tell the insurance about any modification that you do if you want your insurance to be valid.. up to you if you wish to take the risk of not telling them..

i was with quinn for my first year of driving and have now moved away from them as they complete rubbish if you have to put a claim in...

Didnt bother paying out for to of my crashes till my dad rung them and sorted them out..

Id go with them if you dont intend on crashing lol. they are one of the cheapest around. but i wouldnt go with them again..

Im now with churchill..

Ring round and get a few quotes. there are plenty of other good companies out there.

Try Quinn direct or Admiral for insurance on a VTR at 17.

Payney · 16th July 2007, 13:35

I have a VTR, although i'm still learning.

I'm 18
Male
VTR
1,395 TPFT..
Quinn direct.

Karl · 16th July 2007, 13:56

I was 18, 1250 tpft on VTS. w/ Admiral.

Jaytee · 16th July 2007, 15:59

im 18 and im insured at £1900 fully comp with quinn, quinn dont charge you for mods that are just exterior asthetic mods so tell them anyway, This is on a VTR by the way, ring round companys get quotes then play them off against one an another.

Davekelz · 16th July 2007, 18:48

Got my VTR when I was 17.

Was paying £1,600 TPFT with quinn-direct.

Now 19 with 1 years NCB and its £800.

maynard · 16th July 2007, 20:11

im 18 with admiral on my vtr paying 1600, soon to be a bit more when my new exhaust system goes on on wednesday

DeMoN · 17th July 2007, 10:03

great so i can get insured but might be alot and on third party?

i know im probaly asking for alot here but how much on quin direct wud they charge for back box exhaust alloys and tinted windows? i was reading they dnt charge for interior mods? i wanted to have a dvd player and diff driving interior on the whole?

ah yes and not sure what to call it ( a bit new) but like a steroe sound system in the back

many thanks gr8 help 3 weeks till b day!

so far im thinking bout either a VTR or Furio third party with quin? altho i want to do it on my own insurance not on my mums, i have 1 year NCB

thanks guys

done an online qoute for third party fire and theft a saxo furio 5 dr 1.1? (didnt know u cud get a furioi 1.1, it didnt give me a option of 1.4

) 2000 model and cudnt do my 1 years NCB on ym bike but however, £1,987.00

I doubt you will get a VTR at 17 for any reasonable premium. Even that quote above for a 1.1 is pretty heavy!

Try Admiral / Quinn / Bell for quotes though, iv alternated between admiral & bell as they seem to constantly give me the lowest quotes. I've also made a claim through Admiral & they were very good, especially sincei was in hospital / recovering the last thig i wanted to do was deal with the whole situation but i never heard a word from them untill everything was settled!
