Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What qualifies as a “custom motorcycle” for insurance?
A: A motorcycle is considered “custom” if it has been significantly modified from its original factory condition — this includes custom paint jobs, engine swaps, frame alterations, or added aftermarket parts and accessories.
Q2: Will standard motorcycle insurance cover customizations?
A: Not fully. Most standard policies only cover factory parts. To cover your upgrades and unique build, you need a custom motorcycle policy with custom parts and equipment coverage.
Q3: How do insurers determine the value of a custom motorcycle?
A: Insurers use an “agreed value” method based on photos, receipts, and appraisals. You and the insurer agree on your motorcycle’s total value upfront — that’s the amount you’ll be paid in case of total loss.
Q4: Can I insure a motorcycle I built myself?
A: Yes! Many insurers offer policies for kit motorcycles, home-built choppers, and custom-built motorcycles. Documentation of parts, build process, and photos will help during underwriting.
Q5: Is custom motorcycle insurance more expensive?
A: Not always. Premiums depend on the value of your motorcycle, riding history, location, and coverages chosen. As an agent, I help you compare quotes to find the most affordable protection for your custom build.
