Trike News: Bikesure Moves to End Discrimination Against Disabled Trikers

Bikesure is to offer insurance to disabled trikers on a provisional licence

UK (Vocus/PRWEB ) November 12, 2008 -- Trikes are great vehicles for disabled riders. Stable, safe and yet exhilarating, they are increasingly popular for those who either can't or prefer not to ride a motorbike. But there's a problem: most insurance companies won't offer cover to disabled drivers who only have a provisional licence. And that can delay or altogether scupper a disabled triker's plans, before they even get on the road.

Bikesure has a huge range of specialist policies for the motorcycle enthusiast

We insure a growing number of disabled riders and drivers

We've found them to be an excellent risk - statistically they make fewer claims than able-bodied policy holders. So it makes no logical sense for them to be discriminated against in this way.

"We insure a growing number of disabled riders and drivers," says Robert Balls of Bikesure. "We've found them to be an excellent risk - statistically they make fewer claims than able-bodied policy holders. So it makes no logical sense for them to be discriminated against in this way."

Nor will a disabled triker have to spend more on insurance. For example, a Yamaha XV 535S Virago ridden by an able-bodied 30 year old male on a provisional licence, will cost from around £199.14 to insure, depending on location and other factors - exactly the same as Bikesure will charge a disabled rider.
