Thanks Search Guru. Yes, I've spoken to John and he put me in touch with two CJ owners here in Scotland. Unfortunately, the insurance company one of them recommended, and therefore has a CJ750 on its books, is the one that turned me down. And in answer to the question about a different designation for freelance journalist, yes, thanks to your post there is now one. It's Transparent Wall Maintenance Engineer. Who ever said honesty pays never tried to get their motorbike insured. Cheers all.

Thanks Harry, but I imported it directly from China. I did find an insurance company here, but when I told them I was a journalist  they refused to insure me. It seems that ALL journalists are prone to jumping on their motorbikes and racing after stories. Despite the fact that if I was to ever do that (I'm a feature writ not a news journalist), I wouldn't choose to do it on a CJ750.

I've got a 1978 Chang Jiang CJ750 - it's a Chinese copy of the BMW R71/75. My problem is, no insurer seems to have Chinese bikes on their system. I've tried Carole Nash and had a quote from Norwich Union for £500, but there has to be something cheaper out there. Any ideas?
