One difference is the passengers in a car. A motorcyclist will have passengers far fewer times than a car. Car insurance policies often have protection for passengers, while a motorcycle policy may not. Often, there is a different coverage type that can be purchased for passengers of motorcycles.<\/p>\n<p>Another difference in these policy types is the risk of injuries. Statistically, it is far more likely for you to be injured on a motorcycle than in a car. It is actually 28 times more likely to have a fatality on a motorcycle than in a car when a&nbsp;mile-to-mile comparison is made.&nbsp;For this reason, the injury portion of a motorcycle policy is generally more expensive than it is with a car.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Damage to the Bike<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Damage to a motorcycle is common, so it&#8217;s smart to have a motorcycle policy that includes damage to the bike. With this coverage type, you can get your bike repaired or replaced if it is damaged or destroyed by a number of different circumstances.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Liability<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you were to cause an accident or strike a person or object, you would likely be held liable for the damage and injuries. The liability portion of your motorcycle policy would cover these bills up to the policy&#8217;s stated maximum.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Get Motorcycle Insurance Coverage<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you ride a motorcycle, you have to have an insurance policy to cover it.
