Additionally, the storage space helps in carrying essential goods while riding. Thanks to the size and manoeuvrability, a scooter is indeed your partner in miles.

It’s true that scooter is a very convenient mode of transport, however riding on the roads invites certain risks and uncertainties too. To secure your everyday ride from accidents or unforeseen incidents on road, it’s advisable to opt for a two wheeler insurance cover. By law, it is mandatory to have a third party liability cover. This cover only offers you a protection against damage caused to any person or property by your scooter; however it’s not a sufficient cover as it does not cover expenses related to own damage (major or minor) or protection against theft or total loss. Hence, it is highly recommended to have a two wheeler comprehensive cover, which not only covers financial loss arising due to damage of the insured vehicle but also covers the third party liabilities to any person or property by your two-wheeler.
