Insurance
Any one thought that as a group we could get cheap insurance? Any ideas?

In my experience many insurance companies don't want to insure bikes that are modified. Hello, most bike owners I know modify their bikes, perhaps not everyone does, but plenty do. I had this discussion with a very well known bike insurer a few years back. I suggested insurance companies realised this and started to cater for the likes of us who do modify our bikes, but I think it fell on deaf ears. So unless this has changed recently, that is one hurdle that would be needed to climb over.
Only my 2p worth

I for one would be happy to sign up for a reputable money saving organisation if feasible and for all.

You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when posting something which you later rely on in quote. Anything you do say may be ripped to sh*t.

When I have built up specials as long as I had a V5 and MOT most I have been with have shown no interest.Often I send them a photo.
Re: Insurance
The best online service I've come across so far is Ebike. They have a lot of options for modifications listed on their site. I think were going off topic here slightly
well I am anyway
