The law requires all road vehicles to be covered by insurance. Motorcycles are as ubiquitous on the roads as cars and are used by riders in much the same way for everyday purposes. Of course, they are not used in the same way as cars for obvious reasons. But they nonetheless have the same insurance requirements and the same variability in coverage depending upon budget.
Motorcycle Insurance in Tulsa OK, as in every other locality and state across the nation, boils down to the same three areas of coverage: liability, collision, and comprehensive coverage. Liability is, of course, the minimum required insurance mandated by law. Without it, the motorcycle rider is not street-legal. Penalties for lack of liability insurance vary from state to state, but it is not worth the legal hassles involved for getting caught without coverage. Basic liability covers damage and injury inflicted by a rider upon an innocent third party but nothing else. Collision covers the costs for repair or replacement of one’s bike in an accident. And full comprehensive coverage involves everything: liability, collision, loss from theft or weather damage, and personal medical costs from injury in an accident. And additional policy options can be added on as the need arises.
Insurance coverage for motorcycles can also be custom-tailored for the prospective client. For example, an antique motorcycle falls under separate categories of special coverage due to the age and collector’s value of the bike. A 1948 Vincent Black Shadow Series B is a treasure compared to a modern day Yamaha. A bike like that will have a high replacement value and should be completely covered for any potential loss. And then, there are motorcycles used purely for sport or off-road enjoyment such as the Honda CRF 450X. Clearly, such a bike is not driven every day and does not require the same level of coverage as motorcycles put to regular road usage. A policy for sporting bikes can also be drafted to fit the particular needs of the weekend warrior as easily as for the street rider.
