Temporary Non-EU resident motorbike cover?

Options
Hi

Having looked around the web a bit, I think I'm onto a loser with this enquiry, but hey, you lot are hopefully my saviours.

My Zambian-resident brother-in-law is visiting in July. A friend has offered him the use of his bike for up to 5 days, but we need to organise motorcycle insurance.

He's 50, got a Zambian license and plenty of riding experience. The bike's being loaned, not rented.

Any ideas as to who might offer a quote?

Cheers

    You could phone Herts Insurance to see if they can do this or know of a company who can. From what I can see the rider under a short term policy has to have lived in the UK for 12 month.

    What about your friend phoning his Insurers to see if they can do anything.

    I suspect that companies that hire motorcycles to foreign visitors will have Insurance schemes in place. Perhaps see which Insurers they use and make enquiries.

If you have a problem with any organisation, enter into their official complaints process at the earliest opportunity, as sometimes complaints have to be started within a certain time frame.
