Top Motorcycle Insurance Tips for Tennessee Riders During the Busy Summer Season

Summer brings more riders onto Tennessee’s roads, and exploring the state on a motorcycle is one of the best ways to take in what it has to offer. Whether you ride on weekends or commute daily, this season is a good time to review your motorcycle insurance and make sure your coverage keeps pace with your riding habits.

Review Your Coverage Before You Ride

Check that your policy reflects your current bike, gear and riding frequency. Liability coverage, uninsured motorist coverage, and comprehensive and collision coverage each serve a different purpose. Riding without adequate coverage puts your finances at risk if an accident occurs.

Understand What Your Policy Actually Covers

Motorcycle policies vary widely. Standard policies may not automatically cover:

• Custom parts and accessories added after purchase
• Riding gear and helmets
• Trip interruption or roadside assistance
• Coverage when lending your bike to another rider

Our team can walk you through your policy in detail, so there are no surprises after a loss.

Consider Your Riding Season and Mileage

Some insurers offer policies that adjust based on how much you ride. If you store your bike during colder months, a lay-up or storage option may reduce your premium during that period. Talk with our team about options that fit your actual riding schedule.

Stay Current on State Requirements

Tennessee requires motorcycle riders to carry minimum liability coverage for bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage per accident. Those minimums may not be enough to cover serious accidents. Carrying coverage above the state-required minimums is a practical way to help cover your assets.
