Why you should have motorcycle insurance?
Motorcyle insurance is mandatory in many states and in those where it isn't, given the cost, you'd be hard pressed to give a real reason that you shouldn't carry it.
Is there a place you are more at risk for real bodily harm than on a motorcycle where other drivers don't hit your bumper, they hit your leg?! Forget rock paper scissors.. On a motorcycle, it's metal vs. skin and guess what wins? With so much at risk, the premiums on a motorcycle policy are downright cheap in most of the country. Areas like Brooklyn, NY are excluded from the above where a motorcycle policy could cost the average 20-something a few grand... without theft and collision. When comparing policies, be sure to ask your agent or company - as the case may be - which coverages provided by the policy protect you.
It's great to have liability insurance to cover the other party should you be sued and lose, but what about the medical bills you will surely incur from an accident? Who pays them? Get as much coverage as they offer to protect yourself in areas like medical paymets, no-fault and/or personal injury protection.
What about accidents involving another party who is uninsured?
In that instance who pays? Ah, great question. This is the purpose of a coverage commonly titled Uninsured and Underinsured Motorists. Be sure to buy as much for yourself as you do when specifying the liability limits that protect other parties. You've all heard phrases like 25/50 and 100/300. These are common abbreviations for 25000 per person in liability coverage, 50000 per accident for all parties involved. These are not legal definitions- only the company covering you can provide these- this is simply a basic explanation and is not a substitute for legal advice or the advice of an insurance company representative.
