How do I know if I need separate motorcycle insurance if I already have auto insurance?
Some insurance companies encourage clients to "bundle" insurance and offer incentives for obtaining more than one type of insurance coverage from the same company. For instance, it might be beneficial to get motorcycle insurance from the same company that insures your auto.
Adding Motorcycle Coverage
If you’re already a client of Laine Insurance in Colorado, it might be easier to get motorcycle coverage if you already have auto insurance. Depending on the insurance underwriter, you might qualify for a discount. Ask your agent to find out what discounts may be available.
Getting New Motorcycle Coverage
If you have auto insurance coverage and want a separate policy to cover your motorcycle, you can get a quote from your agent for a separate motorcycle insurance policy. Then you can compare the total cost of coverage when the policies come from different companies.
Colorado Minimum Insurance Requirements
Colorado has mandatory minimum auto insurance requirements, as well as minimum requirements for motorcycle insurance. It’s a wise strategy to have more than the basic minimum insurance requirements, but it’s certainly not legal to drive a vehicle or a motorcycle in the state of Colorado without meeting at least the minimum insurance requirements.
Custom Motorcycle Insurance
Often, motorcycle enthusiasts spend significant amounts of time and money customizing their bikes with accessories and special features. In such cases, it may be essential to update motorcycle insurance coverage for these customizations. It’s best to keep your insurance agent informed.
Contact your agent at Laine Insurance in Colorado for any questions about motorcycle insurance coverage and to update your policy if any substantial changes have been made that would affect your existing coverage requirements.
