Factors Affecting Motorcycle Insurance Rates

Several factors influence the cost of motorcycle insurance:

Location

Rates vary significantly by state. For example, North Dakota has some of the lowest rates at around $18 per month, while Kentucky has the highest at about $69 per month.

Age and Experience

Younger, less experienced riders typically pay higher premiums due to increased risk.

Type of Motorcycle

Sport bikes and high-performance motorcycles generally cost more to insure than standard or cruiser bikes.

Coverage Levels

More comprehensive coverage with higher limits will increase your premium but provide better protection.

Riding History

A clean riding record can lead to lower rates, while accidents or violations may increase your premium.

Understanding Coverage Options

Liability Coverage

This is typically required and covers damages you may cause to others in an accident.

Comprehensive and Collision

These coverages protect your motorcycle from theft, vandalism, and accident damage.

Additional Coverages

How do I determine how much motorcycle insurance coverage I need?
The amount of coverage depends on several factors, including your motorcycle's value, your personal assets, and your risk tolerance. Typically, you'll want liability coverage that matches or exceeds your net worth, comprehensive and collision coverage for a newer or valuable bike, and additional options like accessory coverage for custom parts.
What factors most significantly impact my motorcycle insurance rates?
The most significant factors include your age, riding experience, type of motorcycle, location, driving record, and coverage levels. Sport bikes and high-performance motorcycles typically cost more to insure, while older, more experienced riders with clean riding records often receive lower rates.
Do I really need comprehensive and collision coverage?
If your motorcycle is newer, valuable, or you have a loan on it, comprehensive and collision coverage is recommended. Comprehensive covers theft and non-collision damage, while collision covers damage from accidents. For older or less valuable bikes, you might choose to skip these coverages to lower your premium.
How can I reduce my motorcycle insurance costs?
Several strategies can help lower your insurance costs:
  • Complete a motorcycle safety course
  • Maintain a clean riding record
  • Bundle your motorcycle insurance with other policies
  • Choose a higher deductible
  • Install anti-theft devices
  • Limit your annual mileage
  • Qualify for multi-policy or safe rider discounts
What is uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage?
This coverage protects you if you're in an accident with a driver who has no insurance or insufficient insurance to cover your damages. It can help pay for medical expenses and motorcycle repairs if the at-fault driver cannot cover the full cost.
How does my motorcycle's engine size affect my insurance rates?
Larger engine sizes and high-performance motorcycles typically result in higher insurance rates. Sport bikes and motorcycles with larger engines are considered higher risk due to their potential for speed and increased likelihood of accidents.
What additional coverages should I consider?
Consider these additional coverages:
  • Accessory coverage for custom parts
  • Roadside assistance
  • Medical payments coverage
  • Rental reimbursement
  • Trailer coverage (if you transport your motorcycle)
