Many bikers change at least the end-can on their motorcycle to a lighter, quieter and better looking option. Bikers are also likely to have performance air-filters fitted to make sure their fuelling system works properly with the new exhaust, which may also involve other minor engine modifications to make sure the bike does not run too rich. Some bikers will replace the entire exhaust system on their bikes, removing catalytic converters to save weight, and increasing the bike's BHP, performance and noise. However, this can make a bike ineligible to receive a required kite mark – see below for more information.
Whatever modifications you have, you can rest assured that Swinton Bikes can offer you great quality insurance at competitive prices. Whether you've been splashing out on paint jobs or fitting entire exhaust systems, our dedicated team of experts will search a panel of insurers to find our best quote. We will take your no-claims into consideration for great discounts, plus the whole process only takes a few minutes.
So what are you waiting for? Call 0800 062 6702 for a quote today.
IMPORTANT: In order for you to take out a policy, we need to make sure that all your modifications are CE approved (look out for a label that says CE) and kite-marked (that's the little double-scoop ice cream logo on your helmet). This means that they're legal for UK road use – some replacement features such as indicators and exhaust systems may not fulfil these standards. If you would like to discuss your modifications with a Swinton Bikes expert, please get in touch on 0800 092 6702 (open 9am-8pm Mon-Fri, 9am-5.30pm Sat, 10am-4pm Sun).
