To help you get started understanding your motorcycle insurance coverage, we've listed some key phrases below.
- Liability, also known as "BI" or bodily injury, pays for someone else's injuries if an accident is your fault. Likewise, another rider's BI pays you if he/she is at fault.
- Property Damage pays for damage you inflict on someone else's property. New York requires a minimum of $10,000, but buying more doesn't hurt, since most new bikes exceed this amount.
- Comprehensive covers your motorcycle for other losses, such as fire and theft. Here again, higher deductibles usually help to reduce your premium.
- Collision covers your motorcycle, minus the deductible, for damage from a crash of any sort, regardless of fault. Generally, the higher the deductible, the lower the premium. Rates vary by age, driving experience, driving record and type of cycle.
- Premiums are what you pay for your insurance coverage. Once you determine what type of coverage you need for your motorcycle, Lighthouse will shop around to compare rates with several carriers. Rates can vary considerably, depending on the type of motorcycle and experience of the driver.
