Motorcycle insurance

Share the motorcycle type, its typical use and the questions you have. An agent can clarify which options may apply to your situation.

Understanding your options

What to know about motorcycle insurance

Motorcycle insurance can address liability to others and, depending on the policy, damage to the motorcycle. The bike, its riders, modifications and how it is used all matter when comparing options.

What to compare

  • Compare liability limits with the potential cost of an accident, not only the minimum required.
  • Ask whether collision and comprehensive are available and how deductibles apply.
  • List accessories, custom parts, passengers and intended use so the insurer can explain any limits or exclusions.

Coverage, eligibility, limits and exclusions depend on the insurer and policy. Review the actual policy documents before making a decision.

A closer look

How to compare your options

Build a comparison around the bike

Review liability for harm to others and ask separately about collision and comprehensive for the motorcycle. If you carry passengers or have custom parts, accessories or riding equipment, check how each is treated and whether a separate limit or endorsement applies.

Use, exclusions and premiums

An insurer may consider the type and value of the motorcycle, its riders, storage and intended use, as well as the coverages and deductibles selected. Explain any business use, track use or modifications and ask the insurer to identify restrictions in the policy.

Prepare to request options

Have the year, make, model, usual Texas storage location and general rider information ready. If the motorcycle is financed, bring the lender’s insurance requirements to the discussion. Compare the written terms before choosing a policy; a quote is not proof of coverage.

Common questions

Motorcycle insurance FAQ

Which coverage limits and deductibles should I compare?

Review liability limits for injury and property damage, then compare deductibles for physical damage coverage if selected. Consider what you could afford to pay after a loss and check whether separate limits apply to equipment.

How are accessories, equipment and exclusions described in the policy?

The policy and any endorsements specify what equipment is covered and any dollar limits or exclusions. Tell the agent about custom parts and riding gear before comparing options; do not assume their full value is included.

Does Texas require motorcycle insurance?

Texas requires motorcyclists to show financial responsibility for accidents they cause. The Texas Department of Insurance explains the applicable liability requirements and minimum limits.

Does liability coverage repair my motorcycle?

Liability coverage addresses covered damage or injuries you cause to others. Ask about collision and comprehensive if you also want to review protection for the motorcycle itself; terms and availability vary.

What should I have ready?

Have the motorcycle’s year, make and model, its usual Texas storage location, the riders and a description of normal use. Mention modifications and any financing requirements so the available policy terms can be reviewed.
