Motorcycle Insurance
Coverage built for how you ride — on-road liability, physical damage for your bike, and options that reflect Ontario's riding season.
Motorcycle insurance is for Windsor-Essex riders with street bikes, cruisers, touring motorcycles, and other on-road machines — whether you commute occasionally or ride primarily on weekends during the season.
What's covered
Motorcycle coverage is built around how you ride — on-road liability, accident benefits, physical damage for the bike, and gear — not a car policy with the word motorcycle swapped in. Coverage, limits, and eligibility vary by insurer and policy.
Third-Party Liability: Third-party liability is required when riding on public roads in Ontario (not for private-property-only use). FSRA specifies minimum third-party liability of at least $200,000. This coverage is intended to respond when you are legally liable for injury or property damage to others — subject to your policy limits, exclusions, and terms. Many riders choose higher limits.

Practical considerations
Seasonal riding
Many riders store their motorcycle over winter. Discuss lay-up options, minimum liability during storage, and when to restore full coverage before the first spring ride.
Storage and security
Garaged storage, disc locks, and tracking devices can matter to insurers. Tell your broker where and how the bike is stored in the off-season.
Riding gear and accessories
Helmets, jackets, and aftermarket parts may exceed default accessory limits. Itemize valuable additions so limits reflect replacement cost.
Licensing and training
M1/M2 graduated licensing and rider training courses can affect eligibility and pricing with some carriers. Share your licence class and any training completed.
