How to get a Valuation?
« on: April 27, 2009, 04:44:00 PM »
Hi, Newbie here.

After many trials and tribulations over the last 10 years, we have finally got the 2 'Classic', and by that we mean 1912, british 500cc singles under lock and key at home!

We have a 1912 Humber 500cc single and a Triumph 500cc single. Both bikes are in VGC and both were restored by my wifes father, who lived in Downton near Salisbury.

Both bikes last completed the London to Brighton rally in 2002, births and deaths have prevented a run since then!

However, we don't know how to get them valued for insurance purposes.

I spotted this forum and thought members here may have ideas and indeed favourite insurers who know about the values of vintage motorcycles.

I hope I haven't broken any rules or trodden on forum members toes with this request?

Kind Regards,

Nearly-Old-Biker

Carole Nash does agreed value insurance, I think it's done through the vintage motorcycle club. You send photographs and details of work done with your insurance details.

Goldy.

Many thanks for that. We had considered Carol Nash for the insurance, I didn't realise that they did the valuation 'part'.
