    Insurance costs after an "off"

    Hi good People,
    I am curious to know what increases are likely to be added after making 2 claims in 12 months. I had an accident last july (no 3rd partys involved) and claimed for both bike and helmet and leathers. Stupidly I came off on ice yesterday and have caused almost identical damage to both b ike and clothes again!!!. I am in my forties and my original policy cost me £200 with no no-claims. Any body have any idea what sort of affect this will have on my renewal costs (due in April) ??

    The price may go up but also they may want to increase your Excess.
    YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE

    The way to look at it is hopefully you have come out of this without any injury that would be so serious that you could not ride again, or you would not be asking the question

    Costs are likely to go up but if you can still ride then that's all that matters

    Not sure if you have any crash protection on the bike - if not it's worth looking into even if it never gets used

    02 RD07a RWB, Powerbronze tall screen, Remus Grand Prix, TT crash bars, TT pannier frame, Zega style panniers, Alpos top box,TT bar risers, TT headlamp guard, Heated grips, mainstand, Heidenau K60s for road and light offroad, TKC80s for the dirty stuff, Scottoiler, Autocomm, TT Zumo mount, Zumo 550 and most of all A BIG GRIN !!! Oh, and a very nice RD04 HRC coloured Marathon Replica
