Who needs to buy motorcycle insurance?
If you drive a motorcycle, moped or scooter on any public roadway, you will need to insure your motorcycle. The actual definition of a motorcycle, other than sweet, beauty, beastlike, or just plain cool, is as follows:
- Can be two tandem or three wheels
- Engine size is over 50cc’s
- Includes mopeds and scooters
How do you calculate the insured value of a motorcycle?
When you go to insure your ride, you will be asked to select the declared value which will determine the limit of coverage you will purchase. Originally this will be part of the bill of sale but you will also want to take into consideration modifications you have made to make yours the stand out beauty that it is! And of course, you will want to consider depreciation over the years. Elements that will form the value of your motorcycle include:
- Make and model
- Engine size
- Level of customization
Try to be accurate with your declared value as the amount that will be paid out to you in the event of a total loss will be based on fair market value.
What about coverage for a moped or scooter?
How is a scooter or moped defined differently from a motorcycle? Basically, if your ride falls within the following description, you can register as a scooter or moped:
- Two tandem or three wheels
- Wheels larger than 250 mm
- Maximum engine displacement is 50cc’s or it has an electric motor
- Maximum speed of 50kms per hour
- If the maximum cc’s or maximum speed exceeds these limits, your bike must be registered as a motorcycle.
