subject: 8 Ways To Pay Less For Bike Insurance [print this page]


If you own a motorbike, then getting insurance for it is inevitable - and a legal requirement! However, this doesn't mean that you have to pay too much for it, or accept less cover than you really need. By following a few tips, you can get the perfect policy and pay less for it as well:

1. Avoid using your bike more than necessary. If you can avoid going too many miles on your bike, insurers will often allow for a discount on your bike insurance premium.Since each insurer has their own rules, you need to ask them how many miles you can drive to stay in the area of cheaper insurance.

2. Use all of the best security measures. If your bike is safer, then the chances that it is stolen goes down. When this is the case, most insurance companies will pass the savings on to you in the form of lower premiums. Be advised that some companies prefer certain alarm and security companies, so always ask before you purchase your security devices. If you have a garage, it is a splendid idea to store you bike there. Keep your motorbike safe and get rewarded for it.

3. When driving, be as careful as possible. Speeding is not only dangerous; it can also cost you points on your licence, which can raise your premiums.

4. Don't settle for the first insurance company you find. The costs of bike insurance are much different from company to company, so it is wise to check out many different companies so that you can compare their rates and policies. The Internet is full of information on just about any company and there are plenty of people that are there that like to share their experiences as well. In addition, you can often find websites that let you get price quotes from different companies all at the same site. This can make searching for the perfect policy much easier.

5. One of the best things you can do to keep your rates down for your insurance, is to make sure that you don't need to file a claim. The longer you go without the need to file a claim, the more savings you can get.

6. Take good care of your bike. When driving, avoid things that can cause damage to your bike, as well as cause accidents. When you don't have to file a claim for things that shouldn't have happened to begin with, you could feel the savings in your bank account.

7. The older you get and the more experience riding you get under your belt, the less you will have to pay for your insurance. This is because older drivers get in fewer accidents, so their rates reflect this.

8. Look for insurance companies that have a good reputation and pay claims in a fast and stress free manner. Getting the right policy to start with can mean that you do not have to waste time searching for a different company later on down the road.

You can discover the best bike insurance for your situation and by following a few simple tips, you can have the policy you need at a good price.
