Motorcycle Travel Insurance Europe

If you are planning to travel in Europe by motorcycle, you need to check out some insurance. If you are renting a motorcycle, the contract that you sign will in all likelihood include a provision concerning insurance. Read it carefully - chances are what is protected is property damage to the motorcycle.

Traveling by motorcycle can be dangerous - even in Europe where motorcyclists are much more accepted and welcomed on the roads. I highly recommend that you research some short-term insurance policies that will cover you in the event an accident occurs.

Trip Insurance Also Recommended

Trip insurance is also something that I highly recommend if you are planning a trip by motorcycle - especially when you have expensive airfare. We had to cancel a trip a few years ago and some trip insurance would have been a good investment - the airfare alone was about $1200 - wasted.

Think about all the planning that you put into your trip - the coordination of flights, hotels, rental companies. You probably are required to pay deposits, put money down to secure the hotel, or the motorcycle.
