Insurance for a borrowed bike in USA
I'm am trying to get insurance for a bike that I am borrowing from a friend in USA for 3 weeks.
Motorcycle Express state that they do not insure borrowed bikes, are there any that do? Thanks Rich |
In the USA the owner of the bike has the insurance on the bike.
I think the owner would just add your name as a extra rider on his insurance. |
It may vary from state to state but I understand that as long as you have the insurance documents from the owner and a written statement to say you have his permission then that will be fine.
Things change over time, especially since 9/11, so you will need to confirm this is still the case. |
I borrowed a mate's AZ-registered DRZ for a 6 week trip a couple of years back. My mate put me on the Title, hence I was the "co-owner". I used Progressive Insurance which allowed me as a non-US (aka UK) driver's licence holders to be insured on "my" bike.

Thanks for the advice.
I am now insured on the owners policy. Rich |
