Read to know about some ways to save money on the renewal of bike insurance.

Top Ways to Save Money on Bike Insurance Renewal

Ways to Save Money on the Renewal of Two-Wheeler Insurance

Here are some easy and common tricks with which you can get a discount on your premium cost at the time of bike insurance renewal:

  • Drive Safely

Driving safely not only lessen the chances of any collision but, also reduces the premium amount of your bike insurance policy. Actually, insurance companies provide a No Claim Bonus (NCB) benefit, which is a reward in terms of a discount to reduce the premium of the next year, to policyholders who make no claim in a policy year, which is possible only by driving safely and responsibly. 

  • Buy Add-ons Carefully

Add-on covers looks good to everybody as they provide additional coverage during unfortunate events, but they do not come for free. They increase the premium amount of your policy, so they should be purchased strictly in accordance with your requirements. Buy the add-on covers only you need and remove the ones from your policy during renewal that are of no use to you.

  • Increase Your Policy Term

Usually, the bike insurance plans are available with the annual policy term. It means you have to get your policy renewed to keep them active every year before its expiry date. However, bike insurance plans with long term periods are also available such as a 3-year bike insurance policy. Buying such policies will secure you from the hassle of frequent renewals. In addition to this, long term plans are cheaper than yearly plans. 

  • Install Anti-theft Devices

Insurance companies cover your risk of damage to your bike. Installation of an anti-theft device in your vehicle can secure it to some extent from getting stolen. Such measures lower the risk of theft of your bike and make your insurer give a discount on the policy premium. To get this discount, you must declare the installation of an anti-theft device in your bike during the renewal and must install only the Automobile Research Association of India (ARAI) approved safety devices.

  • Avoid Making Modifications

Modifications in bikes are referred to the addition of accessories that were not a part of the two-wheeler during its purchase. With modifications, you will have to insure the newly added parts too which will enhance your bike insurance policy premium cost. Therefore, avoid making any modifications to your bike, if not required.
