Insuring a ‘borrowed’ bike in New Zealand
The wife and I are, oldies health permitting, taking a month tour of New Zealand starting in November. Having looked at the cost to hire a VStrom 650, it is coming out at about £2K which seems ludicrous to me. I have posted on a NZ bikers facebook page to see if anybody would like to do an exchange if they are thinking of coming to the UK. No takers in that yet, but one chap has a 2003 R850R that he would be willing to hire to me for a very low cost. He is a bike mechanic by trade which is a bonus.
Have any of you got any tips on how one might best insure a bike that isn’t registered in your name abroad?
Obviously I would take out travel insurance to cover motorcycling also.
