More Ways to Save

Talk to your local Safeco agent about more ways to save on your motorcycle insurance. It’s possible to lower your rate if you:

How to Lower Your Motorcycle Insurance Costs

Spending less money is much easier than perfecting your tight turns at high speeds on a gravel road.

Increase Your Deductible

You can lower your motorcycle insurance premium by shifting part of the loss payment to yourself. For example, if you had a $500 deductible, you would need to pay the first $500 of a covered loss. A higher deductible will generally lower your premium, but increase the amount you must pay yourself if a loss occurs.

Pay Your Bill in Full

Pay your bill off in full when you start or renew a policy instead of paying in monthly installments.
Talk to your local Safeco agent about other discounts and ways to save that could help reduce how much you pay for your motorcycle insurance.
