How much - you are having a laugh

Just phoned up Norwich Union to see how much I would have to pay for insurance on a £2300 Honda CBR 125 as a 17 year old, and they would want £1500 to insure me plus 200 smacker excess.

They have got be kidding.

Try Carole Nash instead, they specialise in bikes. A "classic" (ie. older than 15 years) would be cheaper too. Suzuki GP125 -- 14bhp, should cost about £600 to buy. Cheap as chips to run and fix.

I would but I could barely understand a word the Scottish tit on the end of the phone was saying. And I had been led to believe the call centre was in India....
