These days everyone is watching the pennies, so a motorcycle insurance scheme that's designed to save cash has to be good news. Bikesure says its new MC+ insurance scheme is just like standard motorcycle insurance, only better - and cheaper. It's based on the concept of being as flexible as possible: this not only allows the policyholder to tailor it to their specific needs, but also, by incorporating loads of discount options, to lower the cost.
Some of the MC+ discounts are familiar - like limited mileage - but others are more unusual. For example, riders who don't take pillion passengers can claim a discount, as can those willing to have a voluntary excess of £500. Similarly, if the value of the bike is low, the policyholder can get a discount of up to 20% (compared to a higher value bike with the same performance).
There's an additional 15% discount for advanced rider qualifications - and Bikesure recognises all the main course providers including IAM, ROSPA, DSA, Vision Advanced and The Edge.
And a really big plus is that MC+ offers up to 60% no claims bonus (NCB) - whereas the norm is only 50%.
"MC+ doesn't necessarily break new ground," says Robert Balls of Bikesure. "Rather, it gathers up all the discounts available, puts them into one package and, where possible, stretches them a bit more - as with the NCB.
"We believe it can deliver the best motorcycle insurance deal on the market."
Bikesure is 100% British owned and based. It has a huge range of specialist policies for the motorcycle enthusiast, including cheap bike insurance schemes for performance and custom bikes, scooters, trikes, quads and bug riders.
