WITH BIKESURE’S BREAKDOWN POLICY, MOTORCYCLE RIDERS DON’T GET STRANDED – EVEN AT HOME!
04 July 2005 - Bikesure

One of the rules of the road for bike riders is ‘don’t drive for long periods on the reserve tank’.

Bikers know this but how many stick to the rule? It’s all too easy to forget to fill up and then the familiar stutter heralds the last of the petrol leaving the tank. Arrgh!

That’s when the bike riders’ problems really start. They have to abandon the bike and walk to the nearest petrol station for a can of petrol. The trouble with leaving the bike unattended by the side of the road is that – even more so than for a car - it becomes an easy target for thieves. It has been reported that some unlucky bikers have left their bike for under an hour only to come back and find it missing.

Now there’s a solution to this predicament: Bikesure’s Breakdown policy. This is a 24-hour roadside assistance recovery service that not only covers the bike in case of breakdown but even comes to the rescue when the biker simply runs out of petrol. A phone call can sort it all without the rider having to leaving the bike.

Another bonus with Bikesure’s Breakdown is that, unlike standard motorcycle breakdown packages, it includes home-start. So if the trip seems doomed from the beginning, when the bike doesn’t start, there is no need to give up. Bikesure will send a mechanic to the rider’s home to help fix the problem. The trip may be delayed, but hopefully only for a short while.

The Bikesure policy provides comprehensive breakdown cover tailored to a rider’s individual requirements, whatever the type of bike. The Breakdown policy is a must for women riders: to be stranded alone by the roadside for any length of time is a potentially dangerous situation, so Bikesure arranges to send out an operative to sort the problem as soon as possible.

In the event of a major breakdown that can’t be fixed on the spot, the policy covers the cost of onward transportation - or the cost of overnight accommodation if necessary. So long as the rider is a UK resident then the policy is valid throughout the EU. The Bikesure Breakdown policy gives peace of mind whether embarking on a commute, a jaunt in the country, or an adventure ride across Europe.

Bikesure Breakdown costs only £40 per year for policyholders insuring their bike with Bikesure, with home-start, European cover and roadside assistance – including for when you run out of petrol.
