I'm in "West Britain" commonly known as Northern Ireland!! And it did dry up so I went off on a tour of Ireland for a few days!! I have a few more miles racked up now!

At 46 years old, an Advanced driver with over 26 years motoring experience but a "born again" biker who only recently passed my test, I was quoted £240 to insure my 1990 XJ600 fully comp. Don't feel too hard done by Matthew, they (Insurance brokers) tend to try and screw us all no matter what age. The only silver lining for my cloud is that my premiums should drop fairly quickly as the years go by. Glad you got sorted anyway.

Hi guys, My name is Al and I'm a born again biker. I rode a Suzuki GSX250 as a commuter on a learner licence until just before my son was born and I stopped riding to watch him grow up. 16 years later and I had an itch that needed to be scratched so I bit the bullet and took a few lessons and now am fully road legal. On Monday I took possession of a 1990 XJ600 (Pre Diversion model), but it's rained since and more storms are forecast for the next week so I've only had 50 or so miles under my belt since picking it up!! I'm looking forward to getting a few miles under my belt and improving my skills and also to reading a few of the forum topics. Cheers Al
