Motorcycle

Your spouse who is new to riding decides she would like to get her motorcycle endorsement and start riding. She practices using your bike in a local parking lot, but ends up hitting a parked vehicle.

Since purchasing your bike from the dealership, you have added a custom stitched seat, heated hand grips and chrome wheels. You are in an accident and your motorcycle is deemed a total loss. These items are not accounted for on the original purchase cost of the bike.

You are on a cross country motorcycle trip and your bike breaks down 3 states from home. Your bike is towed to a near-by shop where they tell you the repairs will take a few days. You have to rent a room at a local hotel for a couple of nights while you wait for repairs.

You are cut off by an SUV at an intersection. Thankfully, there is no collision, but while trying to stop you fall off your bike and hurt your leg. You do have health insurance, but you have a $3,000 deductible under that policy.

Are you covered?

Insurance isn’t always simple.

Having an independent agent on your side means you have a policy catered specifically for your bike and riders. And as your needs change, we can change right along with you.
