Do You Need Insurance for Your Motorcycle or ATV?
Motorcycles, ATVs, and other powersports vehicles require specialized insurance that a standard auto policy won’t cover. In Utah, street-legal motorcycles are required by law to carry liability insurance, similar to cars. ATVs and off-road vehicles may not always be legally required to carry insurance, but having coverage is a smart way to protect yourself, your passengers, and your investment—especially when riding on public lands or trails.
At B&B Insurance, we help riders across Utah understand exactly what coverage they need and how to get it without overpaying.
What Motorcycle & ATV Insurance Covers
Coverage can be customized based on how and where you ride. Common options include:
Liability Coverage
Covers injuries or property damage you cause to others. Required for street-legal motorcycles in Utah.
Collision Coverage
Helps pay to repair or replace your bike or ATV if it’s damaged in an accident.
Comprehensive Coverage
Protects against theft, vandalism, fire, hail, or other non-collision losses—especially important for trailhead or garage theft.
Uninsured / Underinsured Motorist
Covers you if you’re hit by a driver who doesn’t have enough insurance.
Accessory & Equipment Coverage
Accessory & Equipment Coverage
Guest Passenger Liability
Important if you carry passengers on your motorcycle.
We’ll explain each option clearly and help you decide what makes sense for your riding style.
Built for Utah Riders and Off-Road Enthusiasts
Utah offers incredible riding—from canyon roads and scenic highways to mountain trails and desert dunes. With that freedom comes unique risks:
Motorcycles face higher injury risk in accidents.
ATVs and side-by-sides can roll or be damaged on rough terrain.
Seasonal riding means vehicles may sit unused part of the year.
Theft from trailheads or storage areas is common.
Our local agents understand these realities and help tailor coverage so you can ride with confidence.
