After putting my details onto the www.insuremyducati.co.uk website, I got a call from Access with a gd quote for my S4r.

Comp. 500 excess, legal cover and able to ride other bikes 3rd party only.

£680 not bad considering 6 points and one claim.

Anyone else insured/had experince with Access underwriters?

heres there site,

Access underwriters (http://www.insurancesecurity.co.uk/index.shtml)

They are the underwriters that my insurer's use. They were the cheapest quote I could get with the benefits and NCD protection I wanted. They did want more security in the garage than others but I think it's worth it.

TP gives the thumbs up :D

I should also add that I've never had to make a claim so I don't know how this would pan out.

Access are the Insurer... your broker is probably Premium Choice?

I'm with this combination and happy with the communication - I've even been given a contact at the insurers to discuss a specific point of the policy wording rather than taking the conversation through the broker.

Just to clear this up for you:

Access Underwriting are an underwriting agency who underwrite sports and supersports motorcycles for certain leading UK insurers who trust us to utilise our expertise gathered over several years. Before that our Underwriting Director was underwriting for one of those companies. They were moving to Manchester and the expertise woud have been lost.

We operate with a number of brokers including Laxtons and Premium (Riders) Choice. As we insure a lot of Ducati motorcycles and in view of the exercise being carried out on this site we set up www.insuremyducati.co.uk and the site is sponsored by us and Premium Choice.

If you are insured with one of our other brokers that is usually because you have shopped around and the overall deal was better with that broker.

Any more questions and we will be happy to help.

Yep just signed up with them. Cut a third off Bennetts and were happy with Termis, C.London and 0 NCD! Seemed to know about Dukes too.

Hoorah.
