Motorbike Insurance - Any Advice

Post by Noz »

Planning to buy a Nouvo Elegance 135cc tomorrow and just checking out bike insurance and quotes thereof, so I have something to compare to when the Yamaha dealer offers up something.

I don't want fully comprehensive and from what I'm gathering, if I want a policy covering theft, then this is cheapest coming direct from the dealer. i.e. the difference between and third class and second class policy from a broker is more than the cost of separate theft coverage from a dealer, which appears to be around 1,500 baht for 2 years (word of mouth).

So given this, I'll probably opt for separate dealer coverage for theft plus third party cover through a broker or take the whole package offered by the dealer if it's better.

I've been quoted 3,446 baht per year (exc CPTL) for third party coverage from a broker (Thai Sri policy from AA), which includes:

Bodily Injury or Death - 1m baht person/10m baht per accident
Property damage - 1m baht
Personal Accident benefit (for driver and 1 passenger) - 100,000 baht per person
Accident Medical Expenses (for driver and 1 passenger) - 50,000 baht per person
Bail Bond - 200,000 per accident

Any advice on the subject would be welcome.

Thanks
