Well the insco are playing ball, and I am due to pick up the new,
blue Sprint ST 1050 on Saturday.

I am currently being offered a funky new insurance for £300 for
three years, if the bike is written off or a total loss, the
insurance will pay the difference between the insco sum and the
invoice amount. Sounds like a deal to me, but I'm planning on doing
30k this year.
Will the Sprint be toast by then, or should it be good for a couple
of years?
TIA

Gap insurance, avoid like the plague. It, in my mind is them telling
you the bike is gonna depreciate so fast you need insurance to cover
the difference. Of course things do go down in value, but my wifes
A4 cabrio only lost £1500 in two years. Mind you, that was when
they first came out.


Well, the Triple lost ~3K in just over 3 years.

Others may have differing views. Also, check for milage limitations.

Good point, ta.

Also, a chap from work got royally fucked by them after his car was
wrecked.

How so?

He had the car on finance, he got some money so he paid it off. Some
clumsy *** rammed the car from behind writing it off. They would not
pay out due to the fact the car wasn't on finance any more.

Now, that's a fucking gip.
