You’re also required to carry uninsured motorist and underinsured motorist coverages in Connecticut. These coverages can help protect you if you’re involved in an accident with someone who doesn’t have enough—or any—auto or motorcycle insurance.
Keep in mind, you can insure your bike for a higher amount than the minimum. This can help you avoid paying out-of-pocket for additional costs. If you’re unsure which motorcycle insurance coverages are right for you, we can help. Give us a call at 800-334-0090.
Yes—insurance providers in Connecticut give you the ability to customize your motorcycle insurance policy. To help protect you and your bike against losses above and beyond the required coverages, consider adding the following to your policy:
If you tip your bike or accidentally hit a wall, a car, or the road, your liability coverage may not cover the costs. Collision coverage offers extra protection in cases like these.
When something beyond your control occurs—like hitting an animal, or even someone vandalizing your bike—you can help save yourself extra costs with comprehensive coverage.
Medical payments coverage helps cover the costs of medical bills for both you and your passengers if you’re involved in an accident.
Needing to have your motorcycle towed is, at best, inconvenient. But it doesn’t need to be expensive. Roadside assistance coverage can help cover the costs associated with towing your bike to a body shop.
