Iowa has specific minimum motorcycle insurance requirements, like most states. Here’s what you need to ride in the state of Iowa:
Yes. We offer several motorcycle insurance options to help you hold more coverage—and more protection—than just the state’s minimum requirements. Here are some coverages you can add to help cover yourself and your bike while on the road:
If your motorcycle is involved in a collision with another vehicle or a stationary object—or even if it just tips over and is damaged—your collision coverage can help pay for the costs of the resulting damage.
If your motorcycle breaks down while you’re on the road, you may need to request roadside assistance to bring it to a mechanic. This coverage can provide 24-hour towing assistance to help you.
If you’ve customized your bike with aftermarket accessories, consider getting custom equipment coverage to help cover the costs of repairing or replacing damaged custom equipment.
At Dairyland®, we’ll help you get the most value from your coverage. Check out the list of motorcycle insurance discounts available in Iowa and see which ones you may qualify for.
Iowa is home to the eastern edge of the Great Plains and miles of twisting, winding roads. Check out some Iowa destinations and plan a road trip on your motorcycle.
The Iowa Great Lakes, which includes East and West Okoboji and Big Spirit Lake, is a fantastic location with stunning lakes primed to fascinate local and out-of-towners alike. Every year, thousands of people visit the lakes to go swimming, boating, and water skiing, and to visit Arnolds Park, one of the longest operating amusement parks in the world.
Dubuque is Iowa's oldest city, so rest assured you'll be visiting a place with rich history and culture. Ride your motorcycle along the streets day and night and visit some of the great locations this city has to offer—from the Fenelon Place Elevator Car to the Dubuque Star Brewery and the Five Flags Center.
The city also follows along the Mississippi River, so if you’re planning to ride a river route, Dubuque is a great place to stop and explore.
If you want to get away from the city, visit Maquoketa Caves State Park. It's home to one of the most interesting caves in Iowa, with humongous bluffs sprawling all around the park's premises.
Located in Jackson County, this 111-acre park is also listed as a historic district on the National Register of Historic Places. The trails and caves around the park can be quite wet, even during the summer, so if you’re considering going hiking or spelunking, wear comfortable clothing that you won’t mind getting a little dirty.
