What is Motorcycle Insurance?

In almost every state, you’re required by law to purchase car insurance to protect you or the driver you may cause damage to in an accident from the financial burden of having to pay high medical or repair costs. If your vehicle isn’t a car but a motorcycle, this law still applies: you have to get car insurance for your motorcycle.

Car insurance for motorcycles works in almost exactly the same way as that for more four-wheeled vehicles. You can buy different amounts of coverage under the different components of your car insurance policy to make sure you’re getting the right amount of coverage for your needs.

You may be able to buy a distinct product called motorcycle insurance, or you could also bundle insurance for your motorcycle with the auto insurance you have on your traditional car. Either way, insurance for your motorcycle protects you from liability to yourself, to the other party in an accident, or to passengers in your car. It also protects you from the theft of or damage to your bike, including both collisions with other vehicles or with stationary hazards.

What about recreational vehicles?

Coverage for ATV’s, snowmobiles, dirt bikes, cruisers, classic bikes, and other recreational vehicles are available.
