Everything You Should Know About Motorcycle
Insurance in NY
3
  • You are eager to take your new motorcycle for a
    ride. The safety gear is in place, but you are
    forgetting the most crucial protective gear
    insurance. Motorcycle insurance in NY is a
    requirement by traffic law. Nearly all states
    require that you get minimum liability coverage
    in order to register your bike.
  • Although it costs a lot, motorcycle insurance can
    take care of your hospital bills, damage caused
    by vandalism and theft. It can protect you in
    case you cause damage to property or personal
    injury to another person. If you have a lease or
    loan, the lending institution will have you get
    coverage for the motorcycle itself.
  • Here are some of the essential basics of
    motorcycle insurance

4
Liability coverage
  • Liability coverage is a legal requirement for
    motorcycle owners. It is available in two
    categories including
  • Property damage liability This is motorcycle
    insurance NY coverage for any damage you cause to
    another persons property. It will pay for repair
    and replacement of the other partys property
    such as car, telephone pole, billboard, lamp
    post, animal, fence, and more. The property
    damage liability coverage will also cover the
    costs for your defense in case you are sued for
    an accident you caused.

5
  • Bodily injury liabilityAlso known as personal
    injury claim, this category covers damage caused
    to another person. When you run into someone
    while riding your motorcycle, it will take care
    of all the legal responsibilities to the other
    person. It will pay the medical expenses, pain
    and suffering, and the loss of income for the
    victims. This coverage will also pay for your
    legal fees in case you are sued for causing the
    accident. Whether you are entirely or partly at
    fault for causing bodily injury, you will have to
    shoulder these expenses.

6
Point to note
  • Liability insurance covers the second party when
    you cause an accident. The policy may offer the
    minimum needed level of coverage by your state.
    You should consider purchasing extra coverage,
    especially if you own more assets that you need
    to protect.

7
Comprehensive insurance
  • Comprehensive coverage is a less expensive policy
    in motorcycle insurance NYCbut does not apply in
    all situations of motorcycle accidents. The
    insurance company will pay for any damage to the
    bike that is not related to an accident. Such
    damages include fire, theft, flood, animal
    collisions, and vandalism, among others.
  • Comprehensive coverage comes with exclusions for
    things such as tools, clothes, and other custom
    items. Helmets are considered as part of the
    coverage, and insurance firms will pay for any
    damage to your helmet.

8
Uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage
  • Uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage
    benefits the motorist. Other motorist drivers
    whose vehicles are not insured or are partially
    insured can hit you and damage your motorcycle or
    injure you.
  • This type of motorcycle insurance NY will
    shoulder the expenses for medical bills, pain,
    and suffering and lost income. It will also
    protect your riders (if you have any) and the
    rest of the people covered by the policy in case
    they are injured while traveling in other
    vehicles or when walking on the road.

9
  • The uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage
    also takes care of the damage caused by another
    motorist to the motorcycle or its contents
    (property damage coverage). Under this coverage,
    the deductible is limited. It can also be applied
    as an addition to collision coverage.

10
Collision coverage
  • The collision component of motorcycle insurance
    NYCcovers the repair and replacement of your
    motorcycle if it is damaged during an accident.
    With this coverage, it does not matter who is at
    fault. If you have a loan with a lender on your
    motorcycle, the lender may require that you get
    enough collision coverage that can help you pay
    off the loan if the bike is wrecked.
  • Collision coverage does not include accidents
    caused by hitting animals. But if you buy both
    collision and comprehensive coverage, animal
    accidents can be included.

11
Personal injury protection or medical payment
coverage
  • Personal injury protection pays for funeral and
    burial expenses, medical bills, income
    continuation, and service loss incurred from an
    accident by the motorist, riders and other people
    covered by the policy. This is a
    no-fault motorcycle insurance in NY it does not
    matter who caused the accident
  • Firms that offer auto insurance policies also
    provide personal injury protection coverage to
    their clients with benefit limits, including
  • Funeral expense benefits
  • Medical and hospital benefits
  • Income continuation benefits
  • Loss of services benefits

12
  • Motorcycle insurance in NY also offers other
    small coverages that are cheap and mostly
    overlooked. They include
  • Towing storage coverage  This coverage pays
    for towing and storage charges of the motorcycle
    after the accident. It also covers fuel delivery
    and minor repairs when the bike runs out of
    fluids, gets stuck or breaks down.
  • Accessory coverage  It pays for loss of
    accessories or any damage caused to them. The
    accessories include safety equipment,
    modifications, custom paint, and wheels, among
    others.
  • Trailer coverage  Trailer coverage pays for the
    trailer that transports the bike when it has
    broken down.
  • Rental coverage  This coverage covers the
    expenses used to rent a replacement motorcycle
    after an accident.
  • Trip interruption coverage  Trip coverage pays
    for expenses incurred when the motorcycle breaks
    down far from home. They include food, lodging,
    and transport.

Important note
  • While purchasing your motorcycle insurance NY,
    also remember to insure your body. Whether you
    have health insurance, you may want a policy like
    disability insurance that will compensate for the
    time you spent away from work while you nurse
    your arms and feet.
