    Do any bike insurers offer short term insurance.

    Id like to get a small bike some 250cc thing but knowing irish weather i wouldn't be using it all that often when id have a car too.

    Anything like i could call up the insurance company and inform them id be using the bike from date A to date B from and be covered.

    They only insure for the year, you can cancel early but they'll rob you blind.

    Not worth the hassle to be honest.

    I ride in all weathers...had my first spill in that light rain on Saturday night at low speed upon braking on a white arrow on the road that I didn't see (taxi that I hit in front just went over it so I was blind to it). I'm fine, bike is only cosmetic damage and the taxi was grand (sound driver too) but I'll ride in the rain again. In fact I did straight afterwards once my nerves settled down!

    Good to hear you're alright, those bloody white lines are so much more of a bother than I ever would have thought before getting on a bike.
