How much does it cost?
There are several factors that could influence your NRMA Motorcycle Insurance premiums, including:
Your bike. The value you insure your bike for will affect the cost of premiums.
Where you keep it. Bikes kept in a secure, locked garage are cheaper to insure than bikes that aren’t.
The age of the insured riders. Younger riders are statistically more likely to make a claim and therefore have higher premiums.
Claims history of the insured riders. Your previous claims history will also be taken into account when determining the likelihood of you making a future claim.
How you use your bike. Your premium will vary based on whether you use your bike for private or business purposes.
Any discounts that apply. A No-claim Bonus and loyalty discount can also reduce the cost of premiums.
What excess will I be charged?
If you make a claim on your NRMA Motorcycle Insurance, you will need to pay an excess to contribute towards the cost of that claim. The certificate of insurance shows the types and amounts of excesses that apply to your policy, which may include:
Basic excess. This applies to most claims. If you have a Comprehensive policy, you can change the amount of this excess to alter the cost of your premiums.
Age excess. This excess is payable when the driver at the time of an incident is under 25 years of age, or over 25 but with less than two years of driving experience.
Special excess. Any special excess that applies will be outlined in your certificate of insurance.
Making a claim with NRMA

Important information about this website
finder.com.au is one of Australia's leading comparison websites. We compare from a wide set of banks, insurers and product issuers. We value our editorial independence and follow editorial guidelines.
finder.com.au has access to track details from the product issuers listed on our sites. Although we provide information on the products offered by a wide range of issuers, we don't cover every available product or service.
Please note that the information published on our site should not be construed as personal advice and does not consider your personal needs and circumstances. While our site will provide you with factual information and general advice to help you make better decisions, it isn't a substitute for professional advice. You should consider whether the products or services featured on our site are appropriate for your needs. If you're unsure about anything, seek professional advice before you apply for any product or commit to any plan.
Products marked as 'Promoted' or 'Advertisement' are prominently displayed either as a result of a commercial advertising arrangement or to highlight a particular product, provider or feature. Finder may receive remuneration from the Provider if you click on the related link, purchase or enquire about the product. Finder's decision to show a 'promoted' product is neither a recommendation that the product is appropriate for you nor an indication that the product is the best in its category. We encourage you to use the tools and information we provide to compare your options.
Where our site links to particular products or displays 'Go to site' buttons, we may receive a commission, referral fee or payment when you click on those buttons or apply for a product. You can learn more about how we make money here.
When products are grouped in a table or list, the order in which they are initially sorted may be influenced by a range of factors including price, fees and discounts; commercial partnerships; product features; and brand popularity. We provide tools so you can sort and filter these lists to highlight features that matter to you.
We try to take an open and transparent approach and provide a broad-based comparison service. However, you should be aware that while we are an independently owned service, our comparison service does not include all providers or all products available in the market.
Some product issuers may provide products or offer services through multiple brands, associated companies or different labelling arrangements. This can make it difficult for consumers to compare alternatives or identify the companies behind the products. However, we aim to provide information to enable consumers to understand these issues.
Providing or obtaining an estimated insurance quote through us does not guarantee you can get the insurance. Acceptance by insurance companies is based on things like occupation, health and lifestyle. By providing you with the ability to apply for a credit card or loan, we are not guaranteeing that your application will be approved. Your application for credit products is subject to the Provider's terms and conditions as well as their application and lending criteria.
