Types of Motorcycle Insurance cover

Motorcycle insurance (or motorbike insurance) is type of policy which offers different levels of coverage that help protect the rider, the motorcycle itself, and others involved in the event of accidents, damage, theft, or other incidents. Seems simple? That’s because it is.

We provide cover for a wide range of different motorcycles, including:

• Standard motorcycles
• Adventure motorcycles
• Sport motorcycles
• Choppers
• Bobbers
• Custom motorcycles
• Classic motorcycles
• Multi-bikes

Once we know which type of motorcycle we're helping you insure, our team can then look to help you find a specialist, tailored policy that provides the best possible coverage for your vehicle.

Then, it's up to you to decide which level of cover you'd like your policy to provide. Generally, you can also expect insurers to provide three different levels of motorcycle insurance. These are:

Third Party

The most basic level of cover and the minimum level you’re required to have by law. This Only covers for damage and injuries that’s caused to others by you.

Third Party, fire and theft

Covers you if your bike is stolen, damaged by fire or damaged following a theft attempt. This won’t cover the costs of repairing or replacing a bike if you’re the one that caused the accident.

Full comprehensive

The most sizeable cover option, covering damage to your motorcycle and any third party, should it be your fault, and for any damage caused by thefts or fires. Replacement bikes are paid for too, if yours was written off.
