Have to say i have a little "sweet spot" for the Mille. I know it's not a Honda, but hey, next best thing & you know the Prilly's history.
Personally i'd let the honda (sadly) go, & keep the Mille. That's what i've got planned once my wife passes her test (next month).
She wants the storm, i want a Mille. Job done, (eventually)
Just out of interest though, i havnt shopped for the insurance upgrade yet.... is there a big difference? (may be a deciding factor on this)
SUMMARY - keep Prilly..... (a lots of piccies of the Honda, for a memento)

Do it!! I'll be really jealous as I've wanted a Mille since they first appeared about 7 years ago. (not that I don't like the 'storm). I nearly bought a new one last month but didn't get the job I went for so didn't get the huge pay rise I expected. Also I was getting silly p/ex offers. Oh well, maybe next year!
.... no more bike, divorce sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wait till he sees the what the Firestorm will fetch as a trade in. I looked at a new Triumph Speed Triple last week, but I was only offered £3600 for my March 04 registered bike, 7500 milesVTR1000KAZ wrote:
The thing is, he know's he'll get stung if he trades in his mille, so he's after using my storm as a trade in![]()

Not bad - i was with H&R last year, wasnt as good this year though...600 xs is a bit steep though, i've only got 200.00. That's why the quote is cheap though.VTR1000KAZ wrote:Essexbloke....... decided to run another quote last night when I got in from work, with H&R INSURANCE
got a quote back of £412 fully comp......includes commuting, riding other bikes, carrying a pillion and 600 excess. Thought that was a pretty good quote, as the other have been over or around £100 more.[/url]
Squiffy.........see above, i'm in Essex, (you're Kent though), mines £350 comp...... (with 2 other bikes on the same policy)...(i'm 33, town location, license for 4 1/2yrs, 3 yrs ncb. - you're obviously paying too much)

yeah, that was after about 2 hours of different calls. I ended up playing bennetts and virgin off against each other, ringing them back with the "but they would give me this much discount...." lark.
It is also slightly higher as i pay for it monthly, im only ikcle and cant afford one off £800 payments!
Its garagaed over night, no alarm or locks, no mods :-)

Insurance
Just woke up to this one, I pay £200 for the "storm" through Carole Nash, am 41 and have been riding (again) for 18 months.
Damn I feel old.
