Bike insurance

I live in Denmark and want to buy a bike in the UK off E Bay. I got one from Germany last year and just trailered it back to Denmark. This time I want to ride it back through France, Holland and Germany.

What do I do about insurance for the bike?

Sounds simple but has anyone got the definitive answer???

If it makes any difference at all, I am English.

Try Carole Nash or another UK bike insurer (I should be on comission from Google;o). Preferably one with a human to speak to There will be answers out there.
Best of luck

ps, maybe a UK address is advisable, do you have relatives over here?

Cant you get insured from a Danish insurer ?

If you buy the bike then you own the bike and in theory, when the bike is signed over to you it is registered to a Danish national and therfore to your Danish address.

When you take out a policy in the UK, you are (usually) insured to ride in Europe for at least 30 days or more. Isnt it the same in Denmark ??

Should be a lot simpler as we are all in the EU now.
