WHAT ARE THE MINIMUM MOTORCYCLE INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS IN CONNECTICUT?

Connecticut requires minimum liability insurance on registered vehicles until the registration or plates are canceled, and the Connecticut DMV states that proof of insurance is required to register a motorcycle.

The state minimum motorcycle insurance requirements are:

Mandatory Motorcycle Coverage:

  • $25,000 for bodily injury liability per person

  • $50,000 for total bodily injury liability per accident

  • $25,000 for property damage liability per accident

  • $25,000 for uninsured/underinsured motorist bodily injury per person

  • $50,000 for total uninsured/underinsured motorist bodily injury per accident

Proof Of Insurance:

In Connecticut, motorcycle riders must be able to provide proof of insurance when requested by law enforcement, during traffic stops, after an accident, or when registering a motorcycle.

Acceptable proof of motorcycle insurance typically includes:

  • A physical insurance ID card

  • A digital insurance card shown on your smartphone

  • Insurance policy documents provided by your carrier

If your motorcycle insurance lapses, the Connecticut Department of Motor Vehicles may suspend your registration and driving privileges until coverage is restored.

Additional Considerations:

While these are the legal minimums, many riders choose higher coverage limits to protect their bike, gear, and their financial future, especially when riding through busy corridors around Hartford and New Haven or along Connecticut’s scenic coastal roads.

OPTIONAL MOTORCYCLE INSURANCE COVERAGES IN CONNECTICUT

With Harley-Davidson Insurance, coverage is available for most makes and models, so Connecticut riders can build a policy around the way they ride.

Collision Coverage

Collision motorcycle coverage can help pay to repair damage to your bike if it is damaged in an unplanned incident involving another vehicle or object, regardless of who is at fault. It is especially worth considering if you ride a newer bike, have custom work, or are still paying off a loan.

Comprehensive Coverage

Comprehensive motorcycle coverage can help protect your motorcycle from damage that is not caused by a collision. That can include theft, fire, vandalism, falling objects, flooding, severe weather, and animal strikes. In Connecticut, where bikes may spend part of the year stored during winter storms or parked in coastal weather, comprehensive coverage can provide meaningful peace of mind.

Medical Payments Coverage

Medical payments coverage can help cover medical costs after a motorcycle mishap, regardless of who caused the crash. This coverage is optional in Connecticut and may help with expenses such as ambulance rides, emergency care, X-rays, or follow-up treatment.

Underinsured/Uninsured Motorist Coverage

Medical payments coverage can help cover medical costs after a motorcycle mishap, regardless of who caused the crash. This coverage is optional in Connecticut and may help with expenses such as ambulance rides, emergency care, X-rays, or follow-up treatment.

Roadside Assistance

Flat tire on I-95? Roadside Assistance can help when your ride leaves you stranded. For riders covering long stretches between towns or heading out on weekend rides, it can be a practical add-on.

Optional Equipment Coverage

If you like to personalize your motorcycle with custom accessories and you have purchased comprehensive coverage, you may want Optional Equipment coverage. It protects against damage or loss to parts or accessories added to your motorcycle, in excess of the $1,000 coverage included in the base policy.

Rental Reimbursement

If your motorcycle needs repairs after a covered loss, this helps pay for a rental motorcycle so you're never off the road for long.
