Hehe, have fun with state. Took me 6 MONTHS before I got payed out. That was with doing everything right my end. I had a perfect driving history then, no tickets etc and 60% no claims bonus - that was my first and last claim with them!

I've heard of people putting their bike in their lounge in this situation.. Is this an option for you?

I am with Kiwibiker and have found them to be excellent.

Do you think the marketplace would want a dishwasher that breaks in two?

lol, my (male) partners pit bike had been living in my lounge for the past 5 or so months. It was just part of the furniture!

AA wouldn't insure me at all because I wasn't on a full licence at the time (the fact that we've had our cars, house and contents etc. with them for yonks didn't make any difference). Ended up doing the bikes through Dave Golightly (Vero) in Chch. Will put husbands bike with him as well cos we've been so happy with them. Glad to hear you seem to have it sorted now though.

Thats strange ... I use kiwibike and don't remember ever being asked where I store the bikes ... I have three insured with them at the moment ...

**skidMark** · 22nd April 2008, 15:58

Put it inside the house...

And i don't think anybody would steal meekeys rg in the nick its in.

nice running bike but it dont look too purdy at the moment lol.

Disc lock and chain to a big fuckoff ground anchor will be fine, nobody will touch it.

But at least get insurance to cover in a crash.

We are all so fucked when compulsary insurance comes in, they qare going to rip us all new arseholes.
