Default HD Insurance for the UK

HI guys can I please ask you what insurance company you would recommend to insure a HD here in England. Are there different cover options or just one? Is there a company for girl only riders like there are for cars? Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks, Holly x

There are a quite a few options. Try go compare, bennetts, compare the market web sites.
however given your age and experience I doubt you will get any one to quote. If they do the cost will be very high.
my advise to you would be to stop asking questions on an American forum and try a U.K. site.

Thanks for this. I know it will be expensive and am prepared for that. I didn't realise it was mostly Americans here but there are English as well but true I may check out another forum in the UK as well.

She (?) doesn't even have a bike and is worried about what riding gear to wear and insurance!? I see she has invaded the queens forum. Good for her.

We have determined that Sophie M and Holly D are one and the same. So take time to say goodbye to her and we will ban her either later today or tomorrow. LOL
