Insurance in the UK
 
Can anyone tell me where I can find insurance for a motorcycle in the UK? I own a bike in the uk, have a full uk license (for 40 years) but live in New Zealand. I will be visiting the UK over the summer and want to use the bike but am struggling to find anyone who will insure a non UK resident. I was born in the UK but haven't lived there for 25 years.

I found a broker called Bikesure who managed to arrange temporary 2 month cover for me. Not cheap, but unless you're a UK resident it's almost impossible to get insurance, Bikesure were the only ones I could find who could help.

Bike Insurance
 
When I used to rent bikes to Americans who wanted to tour U.k., I used a company called Devitt Insurance. Worth looking up.

If you have a UK licence and the bike is registered in the UK can't you use the address the bike is registered at? It's not like they check, and all correspondence can be done by email.

I think they are honestly answering the how long have you been resident in the UK question.

Looks like my original post got hijacked with a squabble...

Just confirming that, as a non UK resident, I bought a UK registered bike and managed to get insurance through a broker in the UK called 'Bikesure'.

Thanks for the info! Infact Bikesure do insure UK bikes and it is valid in EU as well!
I was actually stranded and couldnt even pick up the bike from the previous owner garage after this weird individual at lobagola cancelled my paid policy!!(?) Andwas genuinely looking for short term insurance when he post after me,again advertizing himself/bizness when this site should be free of that !!,so I tought to shre the negative experience and flag him!!
Thanks again mate .ride on bier

For future reference:Mototouring (Italy) and
Motocamp in Bulgaria will also do if brexit happens and so will others
