Auntie and Tracker

Just picked myself up off the floor!;o)

So there we are, me chatting nicely to the very nice lass at Auntie Carol's,
trying to sort out the insurance for the new bike that cometh on the 1st.
Not listed in the CN bike chart of modern bikes yet is the new HD 96 cu-in
engine. Never mind, the nice lady will in turn have a chat with NU tomorrow.
Then comes the suggestion that a Tracker, would be a good investment on such
a pricey bike. Indeed it might, say's I, what discount does that give on my
policy?

Now I'm transferred to a nice young fella that gives me all the technical
bollox of said system, and informs how he can lighten my wallet for me to
the tune of 400 sovs for supply & fit, and then I will be liberated of 109
sovs /annum for being a member of such an elite club. Fine says I, that
seems a good deal if you are going to give me a 25% discount on my premium?
"Oh no sir, we won't be able to give you a discount!"
Then WTF do I want to shell out over 500 of my hard earned so that you may
recover my bike easily and save you money, in the unlikely event it gets
stolen?

I can see the benefits of such a thing, but lets get real, only the Insco
will be the winner in the long run.

And TBH if my bike was nicked, I wouldn't want it back after some scrotes
fugged it big-time!

Strewth! a discount on the policy should be a must on trying to encourage
that sort of outlay.. Shirley!
