Insure a Motorcycle if It Is in Another State from Your Home Address

Liability insurance is compulsory for motor vehicles in many places. Often it's pretty straightforward to insure your car, van or motorcycle, but occasionally things get a little trickier. For example, what if you need to insure a motorcycle located in a state other than the one in which you live? This article will show you how to handle this situation.

Steps

  1. Go online and find a company you've heard of. Don't insist on finding the cheapest insurance. Look for adequate coverage and good customer service. Search for reviews of well known companies.
  2. When you first acquire the motorcycle, take the title and insurance card along with your driver's license to the local motor vehicles office. Ask for an out-of-state transport tag. Ask how to display the tag properly.
  3. Ask the motor vehicle department about motorcycle laws in that state. They may be different from those in your state.
