The Hero Karizma ZMR comes with a powerful engine. Hence, you need to be careful when riding the bike. Altogether, the bike offers a top-notch performance with due maintenance. But just like any other ride, it is still vulnerable to road accidents. The cost of repairing/replacing any damaged parts in such circumstances could be significant, going up to ₹10,000, or even more. Hence, it is important to get your bike secured with a bike insurance plan that will cover you financially against mishaps, theft, or loss incurred due to natural and human-made disasters.

According to the Motor Vehicles Act of 1988, you must have an insurance policy for any two-wheeler you own. In general, there are two types of bike insurance plans in India:

• Third-Party Bike Insurance

A third-party bike insurance plan is a basic plan that provides coverage only for the damages and injuries caused to any third party by your insured two-wheeler. This plan does not cover any damages caused to your own bike.

• Comprehensive Bike Insurance

A comprehensive bike insurance policy provides extensive coverage as compared to third-party plans. This policy will cover both, third-party liabilities as well as damages to your own bike. However, due to its extensive coverage, a comprehensive bike insurance plan may cost more than a third-party cover.

As discussed earlier, third-party Karizma ZMR insurance only covers third-party injuries or damages caused by your insured bike. On the other hand, comprehensive bike insurance plans cover third-party liabilities and damages caused to your own bike due to natural or man-made calamities, accidents, theft, etc.

Some of the expenses that are not included in the bike insurance policies offered at Bajaj Markets are  normal usage and the resulting wear and tear on your vehicle, damage or harm caused by driving under the influence of intoxicants, damage due to war-like situations or foreign invasion, etc.

Add-on covers help you get a broader scope of coverage under your bike insurance plan. However, you must note that these add-on covers are only available with comprehensive Karizma ZMR insurance. Some of the common add-on covers in bike insurance are:

• Personal Baggage Cover 

Covers personal belongings in the event of loss or damage.

• Lock and Key Replacement Cover 

Covers the loss of your bike keys due to theft or any other reason.

• Engine Protection Cover 

Covers engine damage caused due to leaks and water seepage damage.

• Roadside Help 

Provides emergency roadside assistance like replacement of flat tyres, urgent fuel delivery, etc.

Here are some easy tips you can use to reduce your Hero Karizma ZMR bike insurance premium:

• Compare Two-Wheeler Insurance Premiums

Compare the Karizma ZMR insurance premiums offered by various bike insurance providers before you choose a plan as per your needs.

• Avoid Raising Insurance Claims for Minor Repairs

Your bike insurance renewal premium can go up if you file multiple insurance claims in a year. Hence, avoid filing claims for inexpensive and minor expenses.

• Do Not Buy Too Many Add-On Covers

Adding too many add-on covers to your base policy can substantially increase your Karizma ZMR insurance cost. Hence, you must only opt for the add-on covers that are necessary for your bike.
