Most will do some sort of bike insurance if you already have a policy with them. Home, contents, car and so on. They aren't cheap though, shop around.

I sometimes wonder who the thieves actually are!

Kiwibike seem pretty reasonable.
A number of insurers simply refuse to cover HD models (AA), or charge 30% of the bike's value per year in premiums (like Tower).

How much did they end up charging you?

Having just returned to a Harley myself, and being an insurance broker by trade, I can recommend Golightly insurances (an underwriting agency of vero) as Dave is a Streetbob rider himself and vero has a good product and price, and I've had ebike recco'd to me by the previous owner of the 1200C I've just picked up as even cheaper. Try it out and I'll be interested to hear how you get on! Cheers.

I used Dave Golightly via Vero as well. $34 a month.. but then I aint got a $20,000 bike.

In comparison.. AA wanted to charge me something like $900 a year and thats with me being an AA member and having house insurance with them and having car insurance. YIKES!

Edit-

Is it Dave Goknightly rather then lightly?

I use Golightly as well, have done for years under different names (hes a nice guy to chat to as well), for a 1200 Buell, probably pretty similar to the nightster, altho mine is an 04 model. About $75 month for 16k, and you can pay monthly (at no extra cost) or other, which makes it easy to manage :msn-wink:

you could try John Baker insurance
I took out a policy with him in 05 when bought new bike, They will replace new bike for the first year instead of fixing
Full cover any one can ride 1k per year round about
hope this helps

I have just brought a 2008 1200 sportster custom insured it with star via kiwibike.bike arrives within the month and have paid for 12 months of insurance which starts when we pick up the bike.Saw a nightster the other day looks really old school.

I phoned Procta and asked them - they said that if your are buying a HD etc from AMPS(?) then its cheaper to buy the insurance via the re-seller by about $250 per annum. Worth looking at.
