Post Insurance for a Pit Bike?

Hello,
I'm 14 years old and starting to get into Pit Bikes. I've posted on this forum before asking for advice about my first bike. I received great feed back so I hope I'll get it again!
I've got this bike in mind: http://m.pitbikeparts.co.uk/2015-pbs...el-p-2771.html

I was wondering if I need any insurance for the bike or myself? Please can you advise me and/or recommend any deals and websites? THANKS!

Re: Insurance for a Pit Bike?

you don't need any insurance to ride, at 14 your not on the road and at tracks its not needed. i have insured myself though because I've got a mortgage and other payments because if I'm injured i can't work. again though at 14 that isn't something you should worry about

the only insurance you'd probably need would be if it got nicked from your house or shed ect. if its in a shed that is, i got mine covered under the house insurance, your parents / guardians could probably do that for you.

Yeh, I will probably store it in our garage. I'll check all the details of our insurance and stuff. Thank you
