If your idea of a good time is hopping on a motorbike or moped to explore a new country, you may be interested in Cover-More's motorcycle and moped cover. This additional protection can be added to your travel insurance for an additional premium. Motorcycle/moped cover can protect you if you plan on driving or being a passenger on one.
Make sure you read the Product Disclosure Statement before purchasing, so you are aware of the conditions of coverage.
Every year many Australians choose motorbikes or mopeds to explore popular destinations like Thailand and Bali. This can be a risky activity. When you are abroad, road rules are different, traffic can be chaotic, and the bike you’re riding may be different to the one you’re used to at home. All of these elements can contribute to an accident.
Even if you are a seasoned rider, coming off a bike can result in costly medical bills and bad memories. That said, riding a motorbike or a moped can be a great way to experience a country. It can often be the quickest and the most efficient way to get around.
Like wearing a helmet, or sticking to the speed limit, taking the necessary precautions is the best way to minimise your risk. We can't protect you from an accident but we can be there if one happens. As a Cover-More customer, you will have access to 24/7 emergency assistance.

It’s not uncommon for Aussie travellers to run into trouble when behind the handlebars of a motorcycle or moped – particularly in popular spots like Southeast Asia. You may want to get protection, in case you have an accident. Even a broken arm or a bad graze could cost you money that you’d rather spend on souvenirs. Unexpected medical expenses can quickly add up overseas.

Enjoying cocktails on the beach or at a trendy bar can be an enjoyable part of being on holidays. Going overseas can be a time to let your hair down, relax and enjoy yourself. But be sure not to drink drive or ride while under the influence.
