Insurance for a motor bike or scooter?

Hey there,

Im 19 years old and currently a student. I am looking to purchase a motorbike, but will probably buy a scooter instead since its cheaper and easier to get used to and ride.

But the problem is, im not sure how insurance works on scooters as well as the legalities of actually riding them.

So where could I get my scooter insured, on average how much would it cost, do I need any licences or lessons, etc...?

Help!

p.s. I live in the UK :P And lets just say its a scooter, not a motorbike

Just do some online searches. That's your best bet. I searched for pet insurance and found some and it was legit. Good luck.

for motor bike

proggresive used to do mine. Many ins. companies don't carry motorcycle insurance. It's pretty cheap if it's a secondary vehicle. Don't know about primary rates.

I think progressive has good bike coverage policies.

The best insurance I have found is Progressive. I checked with Geico and a bunch of others, but Progressive was a lot cheaper. Of course it depends state to state, but regardless it will be a lot more than you think just for liability insurance. If I was you I would definitely check and see how much it will cost you before I purchase a motor bike or scooter.

Well im not sure about the insurance, but I was looking up about some of the legalities and stuff for a friend. You need to go to your local post office and get a form for a provisional moped license. Once you have your provisional you can get a 50cc moped that does a maximum of 31mph. Kind of sucks huh.

Depending on the speed your scooter will go you will need to get a license (for sure on a motorcycle), you will have to take a driving test at the DMV (they have a book that you can use to study for the test with at the DMV or online). You have to get insurance, you can get it from the same insurance companies you would for cars (geico for example). It is rather cheap, maybe 20$ a month... and depending if you can drive it in the winter or not you won't need to pay for the winter months.

You can ride a small scooter (under 125cc) on a provisional car licence. For insurance try rampdale, I use them for my bikes and they are always the cheapest.
