Do not let the snow last week fool you - it's about time to take the bike out of mothballs and get on the road. But first, before doing anything else, check to be sure you have a motorcycle insurance to protect this investment
The Insurance Information Institute (III) gives the lowdown on the motorcycle insurance :.
"Most states require motorcyclists to wear a minimum amount of liability insurance to cover injuries and tangible cost property damage to others involved in an accident. In also, uninsured / underinsured (UI / UIM) motorist coverage is recommended or even required in many states in the framework of the policy of a rider to cover expenses for damages were caused by another driver who either has no insurance or whose insurance is inadequate.
mandatory minimum limits for these guarantees in states where they are needed for motorcyclists are generally similar to those required for cars. "
We think this is a good idea to have some of the optional benefits, also :. collision, the first party medical coverage, emergency road service and coverage for customization and equipment
III provides more detail on the cover of the bike here with advice on saving money, such as the political establishment or those who suspend the use in winter and multibike reductions.
