Features

RACQ's comprehensive motorcycle insurance policy covers the basics and allows you to select either market or agreed value cover — this isn't an option for other motorcycle insurance providers. However, RACQ lags behind in other parts of coverage with no option for a hire car after theft or an accident. Compare your options to find the best motorcycle insurance for your needs.
