Motorbike GAP Insurance

Hi all,

I'm looking to buy a new bike soon and was offered GAP Insurance at £325.

I know this can be found cheaper, but just wondered if anyone had any recommendations of who to use?

Also, do I need to arrange the GAP Insurance within a certain period of buying the bike?

Any advice welcome :T

Thanks.

    Its best its sorted from day one, on collection of the new bike, as you could have a bump on the 1st run.

    But have a word with your bike insurance company before buying a GAP policy as they might have a policy inplace that states any bike under 1 year is replaced new. I know alot of insurance companies do this now.

    Try https://www.jacksonleeunderwriting.co.uk offer Gap Cover for Motorbikes, its normally best to go for Back to Invoice Cover.
