Third party insurance in Rio de Janeiro, Brasil
 

Hi everyone,

I am looking for third party insurance in Rio de Janeiro for my Yamaha Tenere (as the coverge purchased in Argentina in January has expired).
Does anyone have a contact / adress I can go to in Rio?

Thanks!

Francois

Hi, Francois
Firstly: Do you understand or speak portuguese/spanish?
If you do, try to send a message to "Parada - Seguros" (insurance services) at [url=http://www.xt600.com.br]P

If you do not understand portuguese, send a message to me.
I live in Sao Paulo. I suppose that you may find what you want at any local agency of "Banco do Brasil", but I am not sure.

Hi Paulo,
I don't speak Portuguese but got some help to post a message on this Brazillian forum. Finger crossed!
Thanks!

Yes. I saw your message there. I am watching it. :)
:eek3:

I got a reply from a separate email I sent to RP Seguros. Feedback is that I need Brazilian motorbike papers or Brazilian resident status.This will not work. So instead I will try to send some money to Argentina (Fedex or bank transfer) and extend my previous insurance...
Thanks for helping me untangle this!

Anyway, welcome to brasil! :)
And, for instance, if need some help, try on xt600 club brasil - there are guys all around the country, maybe someone near you, wherever you are. If your name is already registered, you can access "R.A.V. - Rede de Apoio ao Viajante", a kind of list with names and phone number for helping members on travel.
Boa Sorte e
Abraços!

*p.s.: To learn portuguese is not so difficult, just sounds a little like french, but with a male accent :))
