Another Travel Insurance Query

Post by GlenM »

I have a trip to Alaska booked later this year, we will be hiring KTMs from an Alaska tour bike company.

My Query is about travel insurance, the normal travel insurance only covers a traveler for a motorcycles up to 125cc, as the KTMs are 890 cc.
I cannot find a travel insurance company who will cover this trip.

Any of you fellow bikers found a company who is happy to supply bikers travel insurance.


Any help will be greatly appreciated

No experience myself but I would have thought an insurance broker could be the way forward. Failing that then maybe try the tour company or Horizons Unlimited on Facebook.

...also, checkout the 'repatriation' clause in any travel insurance policy that you get. Hopefully, you'll never need to use it but some of them have limits on the costs etc. which is a consideration seeing as you're a long way from home.
