    Cheap ins, who do you use? I have two bikes on a multi bike policy with Bennets, and decided this year to change both of them.Basically big bike for me and the wife to go out. And then the fun one which currently is a crf250l. Ordered the new large bike, which unfortunatly may not arrive till October, and decided I would trade the 250 in and give the Monkey a go as the fun bike. So started looking for ins quotes. Told I cant get multi cover on a monkey, which meant cant mirror my no claims on 2nd bike and was quoted £600 to insure.Not a happy chap.
