Insurance overview

Liability insurance is mandatory. It covers any damage you may cause to other road users, animals or property while you are driving and protects you against any unsubstantiated claims for damages you may face. Accidental damage insurance is voluntary and covers damage to your motorcycle. The following is an overview of the benefits of AXA motorcycle insurance.

Support and frequently asked questions

Do I need additional assistance for my vehicle?

Mobility coverage is included in accidental damage insurance. While mobility coverage in accidental damage insurance covers only your own motorcycle, vehicle assistance as part of INTERTOURS travel insurance ensures that you're covered for trips with any vehicle (e.g. rented motorcycle).
Will my leather jacket be covered if it gets damaged in an accident?

Yes, with optional coverage for transported belongings, your motorcycle outfit is also insured.
Do I always have to inform the police if I have an accident?

No. In the case of a minor accident, filling out an accident report is sufficient. However, if the question of who was at fault is unclear, it's always advisable to call the police. If someone is injured, you must, by law, inform the police.
In case of a collision with an animal, you must inform the police or responsible game warden immediately.
Do I need to hand in my license plates in winter in order to get a lower premium?

No. The suspension waiver component in your insurance saves you the trouble of having to surrender your license plates with the department of motor vehicles. This is because most motorcycles are not driven during the winter. This is reflected in lower premiums.

Certificate of insurance / change of vehicle: What do I have to do?

Call us and we will send the certificate of insurance directly to the department of motor vehicles by electronic means.
When does my premium rise following a claim?

If you file a liability or full accidental damage (e.g. collision) claim before September 30, your premium will increase from January 1 of the following year. In the case of claims you file between September 30 and December 31, you will start paying a higher premium only from January 1 of the year after the following year.
