Yamaha Tricity 300 Insurance

Post by Eclipse »

I am currently riding a 125 on the CBT and cant take the test to get a full licence so I am looking at getting a Tricity 300.
Every online quote I have done has said it cant give me cover because I have a provisional bike licence even though I stated
that I also have a full car licence.

So I am trying to find insurance companies that will give me a quote based on my full car licence and not the bike provisional one.

Can anyone suggest any ?

As much as I hate real people, I think you're going to have to ring a few companies for quotes. The online quotes are great for 99% of customers, but anything complicated you need a real person.

Or just don't mention your bike licence on the online system?

If you currently have car insurance, ring your broker and ask if you can add the Tricity to your car policy.

Maybe they don't realise the tricity is car friendly. As said, don't mention the bike licence.

I imagine the online system thinks you only have a provisional licence. You need to select your "highest" entitlement.
