What affects your motorcycle insurance premium?
Some factors that affect your premium are out of your control, but others can be managed. Here are a few points to consider if you want to reduce the price of your insurance:
- The price of your bike. If your bike is newer or more expensive than the average, your premiums will be higher. As already stated, cities like Brisbane and the Gold Coast are more prone to theft, which means you might want to consider a cheaper flight.
- The area you stay in. If you live in an area of Queensland where theft is more common, where cyclones are common, or live in remote are, your insurance premiums may be higher.
- Multi-policy discount. Many of the insurance providers offer home and contents insurance, life insurance, car insurance and more. If you have more than one policy with the same insurer you can often get discounted premiums.
- Age and experience. If you're an older rider with decades of riding experience your premiums will be lower than people in their early twenties who have just upgraded from their provisional, P-plate licences.
- Make and model. These make a big difference to your premiums. If you're driving around on the latest, high-speed Japanese sports model, it could cost you more than a lower-powered bike built ten years ago.
- How often you pay. Pay-by-the-month can be a bit more expensive than paying an entire year's premium up front.
- How much you insure your ride for. If you choose an agreed value your premiums will rise over time, because the payout for your ride is going to be the same if it is written off. In contrast, choosing market value will mean that your premium will be lower over time.
