What Coverage Do You Have to Have?

In most states, including Nevada, motorcyclists are required to have the same liability insurance that car owners have. Liability insurance is the coverage that pays for damages done to the other person or their property if you are responsible for an accident. Liability requirements vary by state. In Nevada, all drivers must have at least:

$25,000 for bodily injury or death of one person in an accident

$50,000 for bodily injury or death of two or more people in an accident

$20,000 for property damage

As is the case with auto insurance, these limits are the minimum and should not be considered the default standard – it is generally a good idea to purchase the best liability coverage you can afford.

No one plans to get into an accident, but if the unexpected happens, your motorcycle insurance can save you a lot of money.

Other Motorcycle Insurance Coverage Options

Liability Insurance:

This may be the only coverage that you are legally required to have, but it is not the only coverage available. Motorcycle insurance has similar coverage to auto insurance. Depending on your driving habits and exposure to risk, these options are worth considering:

Collision Coverage:

This type of coverage pays for damages that your motorcycle incurs if you are responsible for a collision. Your collision coverage pays for damages up to your policy limit.

Comprehensive Coverage:

This coverage takes care of losses that result from anything other than a collision. If your bike is stolen or vandalized, your comprehensive coverage pays to repair or replace it.

Personal Injury Protection:

This coverage pays for medical bills that result from a collision. Because motorcyclists have a higher rate of accidents and injuries, not all auto insurance companies provide this coverage. To find out if this coverage is available, talk to an insurance agent.

Add-On Options:

Roadside assistance, coverage for custom parts and transport trailer coverage are some options that you may be able to add to your policy.
