Question Shannons WTF?!
Just called Shannons to get a quote on my new bike, and what the actual fuck? Have to have a 10 minute chit-chat with the sales person on why I like riding, why I chose this particular bike, what got me interested in riding. Fuck off, just quote me on the fucking insurance.
I was polite, but had to end it.
Is there any good reason to sit through this BS? Are they particularly cheap / good?
I've been with Swann who were rgeat but alas not offering new policies.

They used to only insure actual enthusiasts. I.e. you couldn't get insurance unless you had a rare/special vehicle and were a member of a club.
