Custom Motorbike Insurance – The Main Insurance Issues
Obtaining an insurance quotation on a custom motorbike can be a difficult first hurdle, as you will probably have experienced, many insurance companies do not insure them. One of the main issue that many insurance companies have is that the fact that the motorbike is custom made, means they have to assess the risk involved for this individual motorbike alone. This involves additional work that many insurance companies are not willing to get involved in.
The insurance company has to take into account the speed, performance and power of the motorbike. This may mean incorporating a premium loading to cover that risk. Replacement parts or valuations on a custom motorbike is also a concern of the insurance company, hence why many insurance companies have issues with insuring them.
Some of the main issues that insurance companies have with Custom Motorbikes are:
- performance
- safety
- value
- theft risk
- replacement parts
Through our years of developing our custom motorbike insurance policies with our selection of insurance companies, we have been able to create a tailor-made policy to cover these risks securely at a very good premium rate. With our experienced team, you will not be on the phone for an hour trying to explain modifications to someone with no knowledge of modified cycles. Not only are we able to offer an excellent service and cover but our select network of underwriters can offer excellent premium rates for custom motorbike insurance.
