What won’t my motorcycle insurance cover?
Certain scenarios may invalidate your Yamaha’s motorcycle policy, and you would lose your cover. For example, you would not be insured for any injury, loss, damage, or accident that occurs when:
- Your machine is being ridden by an uninsured person
- Your bike is used by someone who is not on the certificate of insurance
- Your bike is carrying people or cargo in a way that makes it unsafe
These are just a couple of examples, and you need to know about all exclusions. For a full list, please check your policy wording.
