Motorcycle insurance
Florida’s motorcycle rules are different from car rules. We’ll explain what’s required, what’s worth having, and compare carriers for your bike.
The short answer
Florida doesn’t require personal injury protection for motorcycles, and PIP from a car policy won’t cover you on a bike. Riders over 21 may ride without a helmet only if they carry at least $10,000 in medical benefits coverage. Liability, uninsured motorist, collision and comprehensive coverage protect you and your bike, and liability can be required after a crash or certain violations.
Many carriers discount for safety courses, bundling with auto and riding experience.
Florida doesn’t require PIP for motorcycles, but riders can be required to show liability coverage after a crash or certain violations, and helmet-free riders over 21 need $10,000 in medical benefits coverage. Lenders also require full coverage on financed bikes.
No. Your auto policy and its PIP don’t cover you while riding. You need a separate motorcycle policy.
Some carriers offer lower-cost options for bikes stored part of the year. Ask us what’s available for your bike.
