Motorcycle Insurance?
Monday, August 17th, 2009 at

I am looking to get a motorcycle in the future and I know it takes time and money, but most people do not ride in the winter (NJ), so my question is, can I cancel my motorcycle insurance during winter months, so I am not paying all year round? Also, are there any reprocussions to doing this?
Thanks.

Depending on what kind of bike you have, you might want to keep insurance even when you are not riding. If you have a nicer bike, I would suggest full coverage. In the event that somebody steals your bike, you are totally covered. Motorcycle thefts happen a lot b/c its so easy to steal one. I had two bikes and both got stolen from my apt complex. Good thing I was covered with Progressive insurance. They covered the costs of the bikes, so I didn’t lose any money
Another thing to keep in mind if you do not have insurance during the winter months, and the bike is stolen or damaged, you are then responsible for any costs, and obviously, can not file any kind of claim. We keep it on our bike all year round just to be safe.
You really have to ask a broker there, because different jurisdictions may have different rules. In Manitoba, you would not cancel your insurance, because the premium is earned over the riding months. So, over the winter, you may be paying 5 or 10 dollars a month at most for registration and comprehensive, and full premiums in the summer, but, your coverage does not actually change. If there is an early spring, you can ride, if there is a really great day in the winter, you can ride, and don’t have to make any changes.
We have the same idea with boat insurance, which is not meant to be cancelled as the premium is earned over the boating season, and snowmobile insurance, where the premium is earned over the winter riding season.
i live in ky and on my motorcycle insurance i pay like 4 months out of the year..pretty much only riding season… the rest of the year i dont…its gieco motorcyle insurance..check it out….hope this helps!!
Call Geico – that’s who my hubby has his cycle insurance with and he’s totally happy with them. I’m sure they would be happy to answer any questions you may have!
You might piss off your insurance company if you try to cancel and reinstate every year.
Ask them if you can just get a deal where you won’t ride in a certain period. A good agent will help you out there.
Motorcyle insurance is cheap.
Don’t be a tight-wad.
don’t use Geico.
ask if you can switch to liability only in the off season. That way, you don’t screw yourself if you want to take it out. If you are already doing liability only, just cancel and restate, but that’s being REALLY cheap.
I’m in NJ too. Simply call NJ Rider insurance. The website is
ridewithrider.com .
They have the best prices around. If you go with them you won’t mind paying all year round for rull coverage. Thank me later.
It depends on your state law, I would say check with your DMV. Here in MD if you cancel your Insurance than you must turn in your plates. Doing this means you will have to pay the $100 to get your tags again when riding season starts. Also I have found that insurance premiums change so randomly that what you may be paying this year may not be the same the next. I would suggest cutting back your coverage. In the winter I usually just keep what is require in my state. Here you must at least have liability and I may keep comprehensive too depending on the cost. Hope that’s helpful.
when you sign on just sign on for a certain amount of time. But dont drive it if you do not have the insurance another thing you have to worry about is the registration! If it needs to be renewed within the time that you do not have insurance you may have a problem.

I am so in! Always wanted to be in a motorcycle gang. guess this is the midlife version. how far cn u go km/hour?
That was LOL!
you can, but it wont work as well. because these are on the expensive side, you can create an eyelid primer by combining concealer & unscented moisturizer. also, the brand ELF makes a pretty decent eyelid primer. they have a couple, but i recommend the one from their studio line. its only a couple bucks.

The non-profit organization should have a general liability policy, if they don't they need to get one. This policy can include events either within the policy or as a rider to the policy. The cost will be highly dependent upon the size of the organization, what they do, where they hold meetings and events, how often they hold meetings and events, and the size of those meetings and events. You can get a policy for as little as $200-$300 per year for small organizations up to over $10,000 for large organizations. You'll want to visit a local independent agent that deals with commercial policies.
If your mother does not work or is considered poor apply her for state welfare insurance. It is great insurance and for people who cant afford health insurance.
