Motorcycle Life Insurance

Specialist life cover for riders

Whether you ride for leisure, adventure or competition, you need protection that keeps up with your time on the bike. BikeLifeCover provides specialist life insurance designed specifically for motorcyclists at every level.

From weekend rides to professional racing, you can get cover that reflects what you actually do, not a generic risk profile. Sharing full details of your riding helps the team secure the right protection at the right price for you and your family.

What is life insurance for bikers?

Because motorcycling is seen as higher risk, life insurance, critical illness cover and income protection can vary a lot between insurers. Choosing a specialist means your riding is properly understood, not automatically penalised.

BikeLifeCover looks at your riding style, experience and activities to match you with insurers that offer suitable terms and fair premiums. With deep experience in high‑risk and extreme sports, the team understands what riders and racers really need from their cover.

Critical illness cover for bikers

Critical illness cover can pay out a lump sum if you are diagnosed with a serious medical condition. For riders and racers, insurers will look closely at the exact type of motorcycling you do.

Some activities can be covered on standard terms, while others may come with higher premiums, exclusions or special conditions. Your BikeLifeCover specialist will explain the options in plain English so you can decide what level of protection feels right.

Income protection for riders

Income protection can be crucial if you rely on your earnings to keep up with a mortgage, loans or family costs. It is designed to pay a regular income if you cannot work due to illness or injury.

For motorcyclists, underwriters may ask about past injuries, how intensively you ride or race, and any previous time off work after bike-related incidents. BikeLifeCover helps you navigate these questions and find cover that balances cost with the support you need.

What does it cover?

If you die during the policy term, your loved ones receive a tax-free lump sum they can use for the mortgage, everyday bills, debts or future plans.

Standard life insurance usually includes riding, as long as you disclose that you’re a motorcyclist when you apply.

Family life cover
(level term)

Family life cover is designed to make sure your partner and children can stay financially secure if you die while the policy is in place. It can provide a tax-free lump sum that helps them keep up with the mortgage or rent, everyday bills and future plans, so money is one less thing to worry about at a difficult time.

Helps your family cover mortgage or rent, bills and childcare.
Can be tailored to match your income and how long dependants need support.
Fixed lump sum paid tax-free if you die during the term.
Ideal for parents, cohabiting couples and anyone with financial dependants.

Mortgage life cover (decreasing term)

Mortgage life cover is built to sit alongside your repayment mortgage and help protect your home. The amount of cover usually reduces over time in line with your outstanding balance, so if you die during the term, the pay-out can clear what’s left on the mortgage.

Designed to help your family keep the home if the worst happens.
Decreasing cover keeps costs efficient while tracking your mortgage.
Term typically matches your mortgage length for simple planning.
Useful for homeowners who want their loved ones to be mortgage-free.

Whole-of-life & over-50s

Whole-of-life and over-50s plans offer lifelong protection rather than ending after a set term. They are often used to help with funeral costs, small debts or leaving a guaranteed gift for children or grandchildren, giving you and your family extra peace of mind.

Cover lasts for life as long as premiums are maintained.
Commonly used to help with funeral expenses and final bills.
Can provide a guaranteed cash sum for loved ones.
Over-50s options may offer easier acceptance, often with no medicals.

Family income benefit

Family income benefit is an alternative to a single lump sum, designed to replace your income with regular payments. If you die during the policy term, it can pay a monthly or yearly tax-free income to your family, making it easier for them to manage everyday living costs.

Provides steady, predictable income rather than a one-off pay-out.
Helps cover ongoing essentials like food, utilities and transport.
Can be set to run until children are financially independent.
Often a cost-effective way to secure a high level of practical support.
