Just wondering if it`s straightforward or not to declare the changes to your insurance company after conversion and who would be the best to deal with?
My plan is to have a 500cc Tax and MOT exempt Zundapp Bella.

hi bofs, short answer, yes, if not you wont be covered. i insured my gp350lc with everything declared,yamaha 350 engine microns front and rear discs metalflake paint, plus much more and it cost me less than a hundred pounds as i insured my rb250 as well in a duel bike policy, ideal if you have another scooter as well, peter james is the company, and it was the same price this year which i was very impressed with, obviously how old you are and where you live affects the price a lot, cheap insurance is one of the few benefits of being an old git like me.

Cheers for that Holty, it all sounded great until I saw the dreaded no cover for Northern Ireland on his site :(
