Tricks with insurance quotes

[2E]

Anyone know any? I dont mean...LYING...just..bending the truth such as
Kept in a locked garage..when its actually chained up in my garden...

Does it make a difference if you say your using a security device like a disc lock rather than a chain and padlock?

Been offered a working SA50 for 150 quid...

see: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4608302656&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1

but cheapest insurance found (using biketraders insurance center) is

Devitt Insurance Services Ltd
0845 601 9039http://www.thebikeinsurer.co.uk/cr/insure/images/brokers/Devitt.gif£302.49Buy over the phone (javascript:buyNow(2,93071);)204-646

Not sure if its high because its an old bike or how they work it out...

just wondering how to get it... cheaper??
Was thinking of investing in a Disc lock (obviously after purchasing the bike) although i did see one at the ally pally.. for 7 quid, which i thought was a fair price seeing as carol nash was offering half price of a tenner...

now however, will possibly be purchasing one off www.fleabay.co.uk (http://www.fleabay.co.uk)

just wondering what one is best/insurance cheapest...:grin2

Security devices, as many as possible, and locked in abricked garage bring it down, not a great deal though

ok, it has a chain and padlock (specific make -i put kawasaki hehe)
Oxford Disc lock..

100 armed militants surrounding it...

heatseeking missiles trained to launch on touch..

50 snipers trained on it..

reckon itll go down then?? :shooter

[Juvenilerider]

£1500 i reckon ha - insurance is always going to be a bastard, consider yourself lucky, £300 is nothing compared to my £1000 from last year

hahah, and kept in a nuclear bunker! that should help! mine was 1200 was made less by saying locked brick shed alarm chain....pay more of the excess! put it up!do it on mothly instalments, you wshould be able afford that!

[Lateshift]

you should only list 2 security devices ideally, anymore than that and they start to wonder just why it needs so much security ;)

look at the mileage you are likely to be doing to start with.

look at the useage

look at the occupation (on some policies being a soldier takes mine a lot higher, than when i tell them i am a recruiting consultant or a telecomms engineer ;) :D ).

but most of all its down to postcode unfortunately :(
