Frequently asked questions about Ontario motorcycle insurance

Your age, riding history, the type of bike you have and postal code all impact your premium. Experienced riders (6 years+) outside the GTA with an M license and a clean record can expect to pay $800 – $1,200 a year for most bikes.

At-fault accidents, tickets, a Toronto postal code or bikes with high CCs are likely to add to these costs.

In Ontario, to ride a motorcycle you must have a valid motorcycle license, be of age, and have insurance. The newer the license, the more the insurance will cost. With an M2 and not a full M license, you might expect to pay more for your motorcycle insurance than if you were fully licensed. Deciding factors will also consider:

  • Your gender and age
  • Where you live (inside the GTA is the most expensive)
  • The make, model, and year of your motorcycle
  • The value your motorcycle
  • How long you’ve had your M2
  • How many people are on your policy

Policies for M2 licenses in Ontario can average around $2,500 but can go up depending on your factors.

You can, but you likely won’t save any money. Insurance companies know that Canada has a short riding season, so they charge most of your annual premium during the prime riding months.

Motorcycle insurance is expensive because of the frequency of serious injuries and other associated medical and legal costs. In Ontario, both motorcycle insurance and auto insurance are regulated by the government, and are mandated by law to provide accident benefits to provide you with medical care if you’re hurt in an accident.

Yes, motorcycle insurance is mandatory in the province of Ontario. As it is a motorized vehicle, you can face serious penalties if you are caught operating a motorcycle without insurance.
