Why Purchase Motorcycle Breakdown Insurance?

April 3, 2018 10:45 am Filed to: Bikes and Cycles by Jerry

Road side assistance insurance or breakdown cover is vital if you drive any type of vehicle, that includes a motorcycle, caravan, or truck. Numerous drivers avoid buying additional cover when they purchase a motorcycle, leaving them vulnerable to unexpected breakdowns. Usually, they might stick to opting for a Motorcycle Insurance policy rather than a breakdown policy. However, if you take some time to consider breakdown insurance, you’ll see that purchasing cover makes sense.

Here are some of the advantages to having motorcycle breakdown cover.

Your Battery Has Died – All types of vehicles suffer from dead batteries, and motorcycles are no exception. You may have stopped to take pictures of some breath-taking scenery or gotten hungry along the way and pulled over at a viewpoint to have a bite to eat while forgetting to turn off your lights. When you’ve noticed what you’ve done, it’s probably too late, your battery has gone flat. If you’ve no motorcycle breakdown insurance, you leave yourself unprotected. If you’re in a remote area, the last thing you want to do is push your bike to the nearest garage. There may not be any for miles, plus pushing a motorbike isn’t the easiest of tasks.

You’ve Suffered a Flat Tyre – If you’ve packed your motorcycle in preparation for a long journey, you may not have room to store a spare tyre, or your bike may not be designed to carry a tyre at all. Cars are different, they have space to store an emergency tyre in the event of a puncture, but motorcycles don’t this luxury. An extra tyre would be too big to attach to a bike, so if you suffer a flat, you could be stuck anywhere. But, having roadside assistance means you can instantly call your service provide and relay your details. Once they’ve established your location, they’ll send out a technician to fix the problem. If they can’t change the tyre on the side of the road for some unknown reason, they’ll be able to transport you and your motorbike to the nearest garage.

Suffering a flat tyre while riding a motorcycle can be very frustrating, the moment you notice, it is important to pull over and not continue riding the vehicle. It is dangerous to try and drive with a puncture, especially on 2 wheels. If the weather turns bad, you’ve no shelter from the elements, that’s why it is important to get immediate assistance.

You’ve Run Out of Gasoline – Most riders won’t admit it, but there are times when they’ve been cruising along on their motorcycle and then suddenly everything comes to a halt, they’ve run out of gas! It happens to the most experienced riders but having an insurance policy means you’ll have the issue resolved in no time and nobody needs to find out about it.

Having motorcycle breakdown cover is probably even more important than cover for other vehicles. If your bike breaks down, you’ve no shelter. You’re left exposed to the elements unlike someone who drives a car or campervan. All drivers inevitably come across some circumstances where they require vehicle assistance, so why not purchase cover for when that moment arises?
