Hi All

I purchased my first bike a 2019 Piaggio MP3 500 business LT ABS

I was hoping as that I'm 40yrs old with 22yrs of holding a clean drivers license the insurance for a trike would be cheaper.

Instead I'm getting quotes of £1200 the cheapest from Lexham as fully comp.

Anyone know if there are cheaper insurers or how to get the premium down? Much appreciated.

I bought the bike to commute from slough to London on motorway.

Sadly, new business insurance for bikes and trikes in the UK is VERY expensive, and experience or current car insurance doesn't count for anything, even with the same insurer. NCB's quickly rack up though.


Lexhams was consistently the cheapest in the UK when I was there - though I've stayed with Carole Nash for years, mainly for their Europe-wide recovery.
