What's Covered

Coverage details — and what to ask about.

Minnesota has a short riding season — but that doesn't mean your coverage should be short on protection. Whether you ride a cruiser, sport bike, touring bike, or adventure bike, we'll find you the right policy from a carrier that specializes in motorcycle coverage.

Liability Coverage

Required in Minnesota. Covers bodily injury and property damage you cause to others while riding. State minimums apply, but we typically recommend higher limits for most riders.

Collision Coverage

Pays to repair or replace your bike after a collision with another vehicle or object, regardless of fault. Often required if your bike is financed.

Comprehensive Coverage

Covers theft, fire, storm damage, vandalism, and hitting an animal. Motorcycles are stolen at higher rates than cars — comprehensive is especially valuable in metro areas.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist

Protects you if an at-fault driver doesn't carry enough insurance to cover your injuries or bike damage. Critical for riders, who are more vulnerable in any collision.

Medical Payments / PIP

Pays medical expenses for you and your passenger after an accident, regardless of fault. Minnesota's no-fault law applies to motorcycles in some circumstances — we'll make sure you understand your coverage.

Custom Parts & Equipment

If you've added a custom exhaust, upgraded electronics, or aftermarket accessories, standard coverage may not fully cover them. A custom parts endorsement protects your investment.

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions.

Do I need insurance to ride a motorcycle in Minnesota?

Yes. Minnesota requires liability coverage and uninsured motorist coverage for all registered motorcycles. Riding without insurance risks fines, license suspension, and personal financial liability.

Can I suspend my motorcycle insurance for winter?

You can reduce or remove certain coverages during storage — but keeping comprehensive coverage year-round protects you against theft, fire, and weather damage while the bike is parked. Suspending liability requires turning in your plates.

Are passengers covered under motorcycle insurance?

Liability coverage protects passengers if you're at fault in an accident. Medical payments coverage can also pay for passenger injuries. Some policies have specific passenger liability endorsements for added protection.

Does my auto policy cover my motorcycle?

No. Auto policies specifically exclude motorcycles. You need a separate motorcycle policy. If you own multiple bikes, most carriers can write them on one policy.
