Key Takeaways
Motorcycle insurance provides coverage for both personal injury and property damage. To put it another way, liability, comprehensive, and collision coverage are all included in motorcycle insurance. When buying motorbike insurance, you may also consider additional coverages.
Consider buying trip interruption insurance or guest passenger liability coverage, for example, if you own a motorcycle.
According to Massachusetts state law, all motorcycle owners must get coverage by liability insurance. If you are at fault in a collision while riding, motorcycle liability insurance aims to pay for any property damage or injuries you might cause to others.
