Standard Coverage Options
Chances are, no matter what type of motorcycle you ride, Safeco Insurance provides a motorcycle insurance option for you. Some of the types of bikes covered include scooters, mopeds, cruisers, sport and super-sport cycles, choppers, off-road and dirt bikes, touring bikes, and even certain homemade kit bikes. However, Safeco does not insure motorcycles with installed nitrous oxide kits nor bikes used for racing or speed contests. And even though Safeco’s motorcycle policy covers you everywhere in the U.S. and Canada, you will need a different policy to ride in Mexico as they have different laws. Minimum liability coverage limit requirements vary state by state, so if you are unsure of your state’s requirements, check with your local insurance agent or your state’s department of insurance.
