WHERE CAN I FIND SHORT TERM BIKE INSURANCE?

Question

I want to sell my 125cc bike and I want to put it through an MOT before I do sell it, to do that I need tax and to buy tax I need insurance but I don't want to buy a 12 month policy.

Answer 1

You can take your motorcycle to and from a pre-arranged MOT without having an MOT certificate in force. It MUST be pre-booked. You would, however require a valid certificate of insurance. Carol Nash can help with that one! Then of course you would have to declare to the tax authorities that you have used the bike for 1 day and see if they decide to demand the road tax. They have the option to waive this requirement.

Answer 5

Quick search found two bike companies that offer short term bike insurance. You'll have to bear in mind price comparisons between 12 months and a few months insurance as you maybe able to buy a 12 months insurance and cancel once you've moted it ect. which could save you money.
