Yep
Phoned up this morning to pay and as I was feeling a bit devilish
asked

"How much extra to add a GS1200 if I was thinking of buying one (i'm
not I am skint)?"

" The policy would rise to £151 Sir!'

<stunned>

"The other bike I was thinking of was the new 1000 sports bike?" ( I'm
not see above)

" Please hold sir the computer says i must consult a member of the
underwriting team!"

< 2 minutes of skaters waltz>

" Sorry to keep you waiting the quote would be £171.35 but we would
have to increase your excess to £75"

< Double stunned!>

Seems codgerdom has its rewards but there is a bit of me that wonders
how long policy prices will stay that low when geriatric snails with
the reaction time of a brick, like me, start smashing up hyper bikes.

Anybody lend me £10k for a new bike?

Only two are for me. The Doctor bought one, Number One Daughter bought a
couple, and the rest are small woolly Andiean thingies for colleagues in
the orifice.
