Highlights

  • Two-wheeler insurance coverage protects your bike from physical damage
  • There are two types of policies offered by all insurance companies
  • As a result of an accident, as well as other risks

There are two types of policies offered by all insurance companies:

  • Bike Insurance from a Third-Party
  • Comprehensive Bike Insurance

Physical Damage Coverage is a sort of bike insurance policy that protects you financially in the event of a bike accident. It is important to note that purchasing a physical damage policy is not required by law. Purchasing this coverage for your bike, on the other hand, will ensure that you suffer the least amount of financial loss in the event of damage. As a result, many bike owners opt for physical damage protection.

It's not easy to ride a two-wheeler. You must be able to concentrate on many tasks at the same time. You must keep your bike's balance while concentrating on the road and adhering to traffic regulations. Failure to execute any of them could result in an accident, resulting in personal injury and damage to your bike. This is why purchasing a physical damage policy is advantageous.

How can I get physical damage coverage?

Third-party liabilities are the costs of reimbursing a third party for harm you have caused. Injuries, death, and property damage are examples of such damages.undefined

  • Own Damage Policy on Its Own

When you choose a long-term third-party liability plan and want to purchase separate own-damage protection, this plan comes into play. The coverage of a standalone policy is similar to that of a physical damage policy. In the following sections, we'll go through this in further detail.
