QUADSURE SAFETY BOOKLET RELEASED
16 September 2005 - Bikesure
Bikesure''s new safety booklet dispenses sage (and money-saving) advice to new quad riders.
''Quad''s it all about?'' begins ''Quadsure'', a new booklet of hints and tips for new quad riders, issued by freethinking biking insurer Bikesure. The answer is on twelve bright glossy, readable pages about how to stay safe on quads, protect yourself, protect your precious machine from damage and theft and - not least - minimise your ongoing insurance costs. The booklet has been inspired by Bikesure''s experience of quad insurance, and is a compilation of wisdom the company has acquired in covering these new machines. It''s available free on request by calling the Bikesure quote line on 0800 089 2000. ''The market for quads has exploded recently'', says Robert Balls of Bikesure. That, in itself isn''t surprising. But we are very aware that many new riders are still not taking the right precautions to look after both themselves and their machines - and just as importantly, other road users. ''Quads are a rapidly expanding sector, but insurance is still often hard to find,'' says Robert Balls of Bikesure. ''Our expertise in the market, and our ''free-thinking'' approach, means we can offer competitive insurance for almost any driver or road-legal quad. ''But the more we can get people to think about safety, the lower the premiums can become'', he adds. ''For example, the fact that it''s not mandatory to wear a helmet means people can get complacent. And just because it''s got four wheels, don''t assume it''s more stable than a two-wheeler.'' More than half of all experienced quad bikers, according to statistics, have overturned their bike at some stage. The sheer ''coolness'' of quads also makes them appealing to thieves, so the ''Quadsure'' booklet also has tips on how to reduce the chances of being stolen or damaged. ''Quads have a risky reputation in the insurance market. That''s why so few companies cover them and why comprehensive cover is often so high,'' explains Robert Balls. ''But in responsible hands they can be safe - and insurance can be extremely affordable.'' For example, Robert Balls cites fully comprehensive cover for a 30 year old male riding a RAM 250 and living in Peterborough (PE30 postcode). With 3 yrs no-claims bonus the premium will drop from £345 to only £256. Bikesure has a huge range of specialist policies for the motorcycle enthusiast, including schemes for trikes and quads.
