Frequently asked questions
How much can I insure my motorcycle for?
With Budget Direct, you can insure your motorbike for its market value or, in some cases, for an agreed value.
Market value is the reasonable cost to replace your bike with one of the same make, model, age, and condition as at the time of the loss or damage.
Agreed value is the amount we agree to insure your bike for during each 12-month term of insurance.
The value for which your bike is covered is shown on your insurance certificate.
Does motorcycle insurance cover modifications?
Budget Direct covers all non-standard modifications to your comprehensively insured motorcycle, except:
- custom paint jobs
- engine control units (ECUs) or power chips (aftermarket)
- frames or subframes (modified)
- nitrous oxide kits
- supercharger kits (aftermarket)
- suspension (modified)
- turbo chargers (aftermarket).
If your non-standard modification is not listed and you’re unsure whether we’ll cover it, contact us and we’ll let you know.
When getting a quote and buying insurance, you’ll need to tell us about any modifications and accessories.
This will ensure you know what your policy does and does not cover.
How can I pay for my motorcycle insurance?
You can pay your Budget Direct motorcycle insurance premium by direct debit from your bank account or by credit card.
You can pay monthly or annually (the last option is the most economical, as you’ll pay a lower premium and avoid administration fees).
If I make an insurance claim, what will my excess be?
Unless you or another rider of your motorcycle have a no-fault accident, you’ll be required to pay:
- your Basic Excess
….as well as any additional excesses that apply, namely:
- rider is under 24 years of age inclusive
- rider has not held a full Australian licence for at least two years
- rider is not listed on your insurance certificate.
The dollar amounts of your Basic Excess and the additional excesses are shown on your insurance certificate.
Do I have to pay an excess if the accident was not my fault?
No — you do not have to pay an excess if you have a no-fault accident with another vehicle.
A no-fault accident is one that meets the following criteria:
- we decide the driver of another vehicle (or another person) was entirely at fault, and
- you tell us the at-fault driver’s full name, address, and vehicle registration number.
