What does motorcycle dealership insurance cover?

Known as dealers open lot or dealers physical damage liability insurance, this coverage offers protection for the motorcycles in your inventory when it comes to collision, loss, theft, and other causes of damage named under your specific policy. Also, consider garage keepers insurance, which provides coverage in the event that a customer’s motorcycle or their vehicle is damaged or stolen while under your control and possession.

What are the risks of running a motorcycle dealership?
First and foremost, because your motorcycle dealership has all or most of your inventory at a single property, there are many risks involved. For example, your inventory could be stolen, vandalized, or damaged by weather, all of which could result in lost revenue or worse if you don’t have coverage. Another example involves the handling of customers’ motorcycles or vehicles. If you are working on a motorcycle in the repair shop at your dealership and an employee damages an expensive part, your business could be held liable. In addition, your employees can take actions that could cost you. For instance, an employee could steal a motorcycle or other property from the premises or use company credit cards for personal purchases. You should consider these risk factors when developing your insurance policy.
