Incidentally, just had a renewal quote come through from my current provider (Bike Sure) - £385 TPFT - 1,000 annual mileage, 1 years no claims, no convictions. Locked garage, south London. This is on a CBR650F.
My first insurance quote, was circa £1k when I passed my test and bought a Street Triple. Utterly bonkers, with an £800 excess.
If I wanted to park the bike on the road instead of being garaged, I couldn't get insurance. If I added commuting, it was around 25% more.
tl:dr - insurance premiums in London are fucking crazy.
You need to post up some pictures of the 916!
