Motorcyclists have access to a new search tool to help them find the best insurance deal.

More and more drivers are swapping their cars for motorbikes and scooters.

Ditching four wheels for two has a number of benefits, in terms of cutting congestion, skirting round traffic jams and reducing emissions.

In response to this growing demand, supermarket chain Tesco has launched a dedicated comparison site.

"Many people find their journeys are quicker, cheaper and more eco-friendly by motorbike - which is why we are seeing growth in their popularity," said Tesco spokesman Allan Burns.

"Our customers told us they wanted help in choosing their insurance and our Motorbike Insurance Finder does the hard work for them."

Tesco already operates a comparison site for insurance, Tesco Compare.

More and more people are turning to such sites to help them find the best deal, which as experts say, is not necessarily the one with the lowest premium.
