A Story About Cheap Bike Insurance

This is Walter. During the week Walter is a middle-aged accountant who has a good job and a loving family. On the weekends Walter loves to get on his motorcycle and pretend he is a Hell's Angel just ready to tear up the road and cause problems for the establishment that, in the real world, he would never dream of causing. Walter decided that, to save a few bucks since he only rides his bike once in a while, he would get cheap bike insurance. Walter got his cheap bike insurance through an agency that has a less that stellar reputation as a good insurance company. But Walter is happy and figures that he is smart for saving money with his cheap bike insurance that allows him to stay on the road. For all of his smarts Walter is about to find out that cheap bike insurance may be inexpensive but, as with anything else in this world, you get what you pay for. You would think an accountant would know that.

One weekend Walter lost control of his bike and was thrown from his bike as it slid out of control. Walter landed in the soft grass without any injury but he got to watch his bike slide right off the side off a cliff and crash onto the rocks below. After counting his lucky stars Walter contacted his cheap bike insurance company to file a claim and get his bike replaced. The road conditions were less than favorable and the police report that was filed by the police about the accident indicated that Walter was a victim of poor traction and saw no fault with Walter. Walter was relieved and waited for his cheap bike insurance company to send him a check so he could get back on the road.

Then Reality Set In

That was six months ago and Walter is still waiting for his cheap bike insurance company to send him a check so he can get back to being a weekend king of the road. But the cheap bike insurance company won't send a check and they also won't tell Walter why. Walter is the victim of his own decision. The cheap bike insurance company is living up to their reputation and Walter is wishing he had spent a little more money on his bike insurance so he could have avoided this whole mess.

The moral of the story is that you get what you pay for and when you look to get cheap bike insurance then that is exactly what you will get. So be smart and get the right insurance for you and your bike.
