Hi Guys,
I don't know much about car insurance so I would like to ask some question. What is much cheaper motorcycle insurance or car insurance? What are the inclusion for the coverage? If I have a car insurance, do I need to have a motorcycle insurance? _________________ Free Insurance Quotes

The car insurance wouldn't suffice all the requirements for the motorcycle. Hence, you may need motorcycle insurance for it. As lori has informed, you ought to get the two wheeler covered under its own policy. You can ask your agent to see whether you are eligible to receive multiple auto discounts if you insure it with the same insurer.
Thanks,
Rupert |

Hi Lori,
I've heard that we may cover multiple cars under the same policy. Likewise, is it possible to include this m/c under the OP's existing car insurance.
If not..please explain it to me. I didn't quite follow Rupert's saying this-

Does that mean that whether you add different vehicles in one policy or get separate policies for each but from the same insurer you would get the same discount? putting more than one vehicle isn't going to fetch you any added benefits. _________________ Register Now to have your Insurance queries solved. |

what kind of questions that the insurer would ask me before covering the m/c? do I have to give them an account of past car accidents as well? or can I skip that part? _________________ Register Now to have your Insurance queries solved. |
