With the weather getting warmer, motorcycle riders are firing up their bikes and enjoying the first warm days of the year.  If you are one of these lucky riders to be hitting the streets, or exploring some of the backcountry on an off-road bike, before you do so, make sure that everything is working in proper order and that your motorcycle insurance coverage is up to date.

Motorcycle insurance covers the basics such as damage, rider injuries, and other parties involved in an accident.  Standard policies don’t usually cover additions to your bike.  Knowing this, you will want to check your policy if you have made any modifications to your bike.  If you add custom parts to your bike and don’t update your policy, your current policy may not cover these parts in the event that they are damaged or stolen.

Another key component you may want to add to your policy is guest passenger liability.  Some default policies will not cover a passenger in the event that you are both riding and your guest is injured.  If you ride with passengers, you will want to review your current policy to see if guests are covered. 

A very important coverage you may also want to think about is uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage.  PoliSeek offers specific policies for motorcycle riders for their protection.  This type of coverage will protect you in the event that you are in an accident and the other party does not have enough coverage to pay for your damages or medical expenses.
