Renew Used Bike / Second Hand Bike Insurance Policy Online

Owning a two-wheeler has its own excitement, especially when you are young. There was a time when owning any vehicle was a statement of luxury. Even though the number of car owners in India has risen, young millennials will always fancy their bikes and rides.

Other than the everyday models, the Indian market also offers fancy bikes that come with sharp features and exceptional designs. Whether it’s old or new, a good bike is a good bike. Likewise, there are many buyers who like old bikes for the love of vintage.

The use of the two-wheelers has by and large increased in food delivery, courier, and other similar kinds of services. Consequently, the demand for bikes is only increasing, whether it’s a second-hand one or a brand-new one.

Buying a second-hand bike is not a hassle if it is in good condition. But riding a bike, if you have to reach somewhere within a stipulated time, is riskier.

On top of it, the traffic and roads are pathetic, which makes securing yourself and your bike with a bike insurance almost inevitable.

Why is It Important to Insure a Second-Hand Bike?

Does the second-hand bike you bought look good to you? It might be, but we cannot be sure of the wear and tear from the previous owner. Insurance is essential for your secondhand bike. Why? Let us understand, keeping the following assumptions in mind:

Imagine the second-hand bike you bought has a loose gear. While you were riding amidst all the traffic, your gears stopped working, and in moving your way ahead, an accident was caused. This accident damaged the mudguard of your bike and twisted the handle. Insurance, in this case, would cover the cost of repairs for damage to your bike. Hence, an insurance policy is a must for your second-hand bike in any circumstance.
An insurance cover will save you from the legal liabilities that may arise if you happen to hit a pedestrian (third-party) while he/she is crossing the road. In the last few minutes, when the traffic light signaled yellow, you tried to cross the road, and at the same time, a pedestrian started to cross the road hurriedly. And in the very next second you both were in an accident. Your hit made him fall to the ground, leading to a fracture in his hand. It was completely your fault, and hence you will be liable to pay for the losses. An insurance policy will pay for the expenses you have to bear for the third-party's bodily injury.

To follow the traffic rules while driving is mandatory not only to save yourself but also to prevent hurting others on the road. Think of an evening when a group of boys went on their daily bike ride. One out of those sped up on the second-hand bike he had purchased. Suddenly, a car came from the right side of the road, and it hit him. The driver of the bike fell and died. He had an insurance cover in which he opted for compulsory PA cover for the owner-driver. It will pay the nominee of the owner of the vehicle in case of death and disability. To keep away the financial burden of repairs and treatment after injury due to an accident, we need bike insurance.

Things to Check Before You Buy a Second-Hand Bike

A wise man does not buy or choose anything without analyzing its benefits/features, and when it is a second-hand bike, you need to be dead sure about it. Here are a few things you need to check before buying a second-hand bike:

Physically Inspect the Bike: Look at the bike carefully and do some research for things you’ve observed. Keep your eyes open and your intuitive sense active. Find out whether there are any scratches or signs of a hit.
Check for Unusual Noise: Start the bike and check whether it makes any noise at the time of idling and acceleration. Other than these, you should check the indicator, lights, and horns for sounds.
Verify All the Documents: Check whether the RC has the same identification number as mentioned on the engine. Any discrepancy will create trouble when you make a claim.
Know the Service Details: You should ask the owner of the bike about the frequency of the service and the center where it was done.
Do Take a Test Ride: Make sure you take the bike for a test drive. Choose a bumpy road on which you can best evaluate the performance of the bike. Its suspension and brakes will show their play.

You can also check a more comprehensive guide on things to check before buying a used bike in india. So that you are through with the pointers to check before you purchase your second-hand bike and also know the procedure to transfer the ownership and transfer the insurance in your name. But what if you want a new insurance policy? Does this small issue concern you a lot? Let us see how we can get new insurance for a second-hand bike.

It is equally important to know what’s not covered in your used two-wheeler insurance policy so that there are no surprises when you make a claim. Here are some such situations:

Add-On Covers with Second-hand Bike Insurance by Digit

Apart from the basic comprehensive bike insurance, it is advisable to extend the coverage if possible. Some of the add-on covers that can be chosen are:

Some accidents are fatal. Earlier under the Comprehensive Insurance Policy, only the owner was covered. Later, the policy was enhanced by adding the safety cover for the pillion rider also. IRDA has made provision for the pillion rider to be covered under the Third Party Liability Policy. In case of an accident, the pillion rider will be covered for a sum of Rs. 3 lakhs. And in case the pillion rider dies, the next of kin will be compensated Rs. 5 lakhs.

How to Buy/Renew Used Bike Insurance online?

Consider you bought a Royal Enfield Bullet, more than 10 years old, from your close friend. You have a passion for bike rides, but before you start to use it, you want insurance cover for the same.

It is good that you are being wise and choosing safety over challenges. But the procedure to procure the insurance policy when you are buying a second-hand bike is completely different. For that, you can choose either of the two:

Continue with Same Insurer: You can continue with the existing insurance with a request for the change of name in the policy. The insurance company will issue an endorsement to you. You will have to produce the proof of transfer of ownership.
Switch to New Insurer: You can ask for the new policy from the insurer of your own choice. In this case, a survey will be arranged for the bike post which the policy will be issued.

How to Transfer Bike Insurance?

Apply for Insurance Transfer

Apply to the insurance company within 15 days of the bike ownership transfer.

Verification and Update

Submit required documents and once the insurer verifies it, the policy will be updated with the new owner’s name.
