Over 3.5 million are now licensed to ride a bike* and as a result, Tesco has launched a Motorbike Insurance Finder. This is the first time a supermarket has offered such a service. Customers just log on to www.tescofinance.com <http://vocuspr.com/VocusEU/Url.aspx?517938x7802x-82600>, fill in a simple form and their quotes appear in around ten seconds. Tesco searches the market to find the best deal for the customer. The Tesco Motorbike Insurance Finder automatically quotes each rider Comprehensive, Third Party Fire & Theft and Third Party Only rates on every quote. This gives the rider a more informed choice about who to go with and how much to pay, unlike some other sites. Tesco Motorbike Insurance Finder is able to compare more insurance policies, from more insurance brokers than any other motorbike insurance price comparison site in the world. With new brokers being constantly added, the choice for riders will grow too. Allan Burns, head of insurance at Tesco Personal Finance, said: "Many people find their journeys are quicker, cheaper and more eco-friendly by motorbike - which is why we are seeing growth in their popularity. Our customers told us they wanted help in choosing their insurance and our Motorbike Insurance Finder does the hard work for them." The site is run in partnership with website 'The Bike Insurer', allowing Tesco to bring consumers the best motorbike insurance deals available. - ENDS - High resolution images are available for the media to view and download free of charge from www.vismedia.co.uk <http://vocuspr.com/VocusEU/Url.aspx?517938x7801x-75282> Contact information to follow...
