fok Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 I've got a trials bike that someone has Q plated.....being too lazy / tight to get a dating letter from a manufacturer before registering with the DVLA. I've tried to add it my my Carole Nash multi bike policy but they won't insure it for theft....only TP use. Has anyone got a Q plate bike that can recommend an insurer for TPFT so I don't have to spend my entire life in a telephonic abyss ringing round insurers. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
02-apr Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 Depends how old the bike is as to whether or not the owner was lazy. Back in the day when everyone bought a bike unregistered to avoid the VAT (a loophole which was eventually closed I think) then registered it a bit later, the Q plate was the standard issue. One of the several penny-pinching trials rider attitudes which resulted in the loss of a body of bikes to keep road trials viable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fok Posted May 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 The problem for me is, once a Q always a Q so I can't change the reg. I just want to be able to insure it TPFT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
