Love Your Motorcycle?
Count on the specialists at Foremost to provide the customizable policies you want.
Over 60 years of knowledge and experience
Foremost policies offer important standard and optional coverages that are geared toward motorcycles, and may not be available in a conventional auto policy. They also give you more security and value for your money.
Foremost started in the specialty insurance business over 60 years ago and understands the coverages that are important to you. Count on the AARP® Motorcycle Program from Foremost to provide customizable policies that offer you the protection you want.
Important Available Coverages
- Collision. Insures your bike from damage caused by hitting things like other vehicles, trees or telephone poles, regardless of who is at fault.
- Other than Collision Coverage. Provides insurance coverage for other kinds of damage to your motorcycle such as fire, theft, flood, vandalism or contact with a bird or animal.
- Safety Apparel Coverage. Automatically included with the purchase of Collision coverage and covers up to $1,500 in damage to any clothing, such as helmets and leathers, designed to protect you in an accident when the apparel is damaged in a Collision.
- Optional Equipment Coverage. You'll automatically get coverage up to $3,500 (with the purchase of Other Than Collision coverage) for most accessories permanently attached to your bike such as parts, decorations, custom painting, chroming, side cars or other items that were not originally provided by the manufacturer as standard equipment. Higher limits are available.
- Replacement Cost/Total Loss Settlement Coverage. You qualify for this coverage when you buy Collision coverage for bikes purchased new with a maximum Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of $35,000 (your bike must be replaced). If you qualify for this coverage and your less-than-two-year-old bike is destroyed by a covered loss, we'll pay to replace it with a brand new motorcycle of the same type. (This coverage is not available for custom motorcycles.)
- Liability Coverage. Insures you against third party claims for injuries and property damage that result from an accident involving the covered motorcycle.
- Passenger Liability Coverage. Provides insurance coverage to a passenger who is not an insured if you become legally liable to the passenger due to an accident.

- Medical Payments Coverage. Provides insurance coverage for medical bills incurred for injuries resulting from a motor vehicle accident.
Optional Coverages
- Towing and Roadside Assistance with Trip Interruption Coverage. Provides 24-Hour emergency roadside assistance if you get a flat tire, run out of gas or need a battery jump. With Trip Interruption, if your bike is disabled in a covered collision more than 100 miles from home, you'll get up to $100 per day for lodging, $50 per day for meals and $50 per day for transportation, for up to four days or $500. (If you purchase this coverage and need help on the road, call the Towing and Roadside Assistance Line at
1-800-330-3103. ) - Higher Limits on Optional Equipment Coverage. In addition to the standard $3,500 limit, you can buy extra coverage to increase your limit if you have more optional equipment.
- Increased Liability Limits and Medical Payments Coverage Limits. You can purchase higher liability limits and Medical Payment coverage limits too.
- Transport Trailer Coverage. Provides coverage for a trailer specifically designed to transport your motorcycle (valued up to $7,500).
Annual Policies
Our annual policy lets you enjoy year-round coverage with no lay-up period. If the road is calling to you on a beautiful winter day, rest assured that you're covered. No extra phone calls, no hassles!
For years, motorcyclists have tried to save money by canceling their policies during the "off" season. The problem is, you usually have several days during the off-season that end up being perfect for riding. Then you can't ride because you don't have insurance on your bike. Or, you have to go through the extra hassle of calling your insurance company to re-instate your coverage. By the time you do that, your perfect day may be almost over!
It may also save money in the long run to keep insurance year round. Features such as Diminishing Deductible and First Accident Waiver provide rewards for those with continuous claim-free coverage.
Foremost® accepts a wide range of cycles including:
- cruisers
- touring bikes
- sport bikes
- trike conversions
- custom and classic cycles
- scooters and dirt bikes
A Foremost policy will cover most makes and models and give you coverages you may not find elsewhere.
Foremost® already offers a competitive premium, but you may be eligible for discounts that could take your premium even lower, such as:

- Lifetime Renewal of your policy - Your policy will renew every year for as long as you want it when you meet policy guidelines

| What if? | Other Companies/ Policy with Minimal Coverage |  |
| What if I am on a day ride and my bike breaks down? | Your typical motorcycle insurance may cover a tow truck to come out, but they may not be bike experts. | Foremost's specialized towing and roadside assistance program uses professionals who know how to transport a bike and where to take it for proper repair. |
| What if I take a small spill on my bike and damage my safety equipment (goggles, helmet) beyond repair? | You may be replacing that safety equipment with money out of your pocket. | A Foremost Motorcycle policy offers safety apparel coverage, which means your replacement safety equipment is covered up to $1,500. |
| What if I purchase a brand new bike and a couple months later I have a mishap and the bike is considered a total loss? | With typical motorcycle insurance, you may not get the full value of the motorcycle that you purchased. | With the Foremost replacement cost total loss settlement option, you will be able to replace your bike with one of like kind and quality up to 110% of the purchase price. |
| What if I am involved in an accident on my bike and the other person at fault has no insurance? | Some motorcycle insurance policies would cover a replacement bike, but may not cover your medical bills; other policies may cover your medical bills, but not all the bells and whistles on your bike. | A Foremost Motorcycle policy protects you financially if you're in an accident with someone who's at fault and either has no insurance or insufficient insurance. |
