FLASH,.... Ahhhhh, saviour of the GTR!

[O.C.]

Doubt if they would understand what you were talking about judging by some of the stupid question's they ask when getting a quote 

oh I  think they would  ~ after all its an opportunity for them to increase your premium

I've always been cautious about declaring the modifications to my bikes, that's because I wouldn't want an insurer to withhold a payment against a claim because  I hadn't declared a modification

Yes, I am sceptical about insurers

I told my insurer about the R&G bars, intercom, sat nav and bracket, hugger, radio to work intercom, top box and even the laminar lip and the woman thought I was mad, I insisted they write it all down and this year when I reinsured my bike I asked them to read back to me what I had previously listed.

Alan, I personally think you were wise to inform your insurers

Email provides a record of your declarations

I was unfortunate a few years back to have a 7 week old bike Suzuki 1250 bandit written off.
The gap insurance only covered the bike although I had the receipts for extras fitted new by the supplier the insurance company Bennett's  would not pay up because the extras  satnav and bracket givi panniers and frames screen hugger etc was not genuine Suzuki parts    I ended up having to sue the car driver and his insurance for the extra cash for these extras
Although reported all for the quote I would rather pack up riding than use Bennett's again

My insurance is for a 'blanket' amount for accessories.  I can increase that but they don't ask what they are.  As long as I have receipts for them, that's sufficient.

Sounds like you guys need to have a revolution.  It seems to have worked for us.

We did have a revolution in the 1640's but unfortunately we blew it and invited royal family back!
