Here are a few reasons for any vehicle owner to have insurance:

• If anybody has bought a new bike, then he has to buy an insurance policy. Under the Motor Vehicles Act, the Government of India has made it mandatory for every bike owner to have an insurance policy.
• The bad condition of roads coupled with rash driving increases the chances of accidents. An accident can cause damage to vehicles inflict injuries or sometimes even result in loss of life. Loss of money is inevitable under these circumstances as one has to spend to repair the vehicle and get medical aid if injured. All the repair expenses can be taken care of by the insurance company if a policy has been bought. Thus, it will not burn a hole in your pocket and you don’t have to worry about unforeseen expenditures.
• Policies also cover damage to the bike by natural calamities like floods, earthquakes, fire, etc. So, you can claim under these circumstances.
• A majority of bike owners are people with limited resources. Having an insurance policy ensures that they avoid the burden of unforeseen expenses in case of an accident or theft of the vehicle.
• With third-party Bike Insurance, one can file a claim for the damages to the other vehicle (which is called the third party) involved in an accident.
• The major reason for one to have an insurance policy is that it aids financial support to the policyholder for any expense incurred due to repair work of a vehicle damaged in accidents, natural calamities, etc. By just paying a small amount to buy the insurance policy, one can claim a reasonable amount of money in their time of need.
• It is sensible to take an insurance policy for your bike by paying a nominal amount of money, to avoid an additional burden on your budget if a mishap occurs with the bike.
