Sport Bike Insurance Done Right: Pay Only for Miles You Actually Ride
Discover how VOOM's pay-per-mile insurance can save sport bike owners up to 60% on premiums by paying only for the miles you actually ride, not industry assumptions.

Own a Yamaha R1, Kawasaki Ninja, Ducati Panigale, or Honda CBR? Then you already know the pain of traditional motorcycle insurance. Your premium probably makes you wince every month, and here's the kicker – it's likely based on assumptions that have nothing to do with how you actually ride your bike.
Most sport bike owners aren't daily commuters grinding through traffic. You bought your machine for the pure thrill of riding, those weekend canyon runs, or maybe some track days. So why are you paying insurance rates that assume you're putting 12,000+ miles on your bike every year?
Traditional Insurance Doesn’t Fit Sport bikes
Here's what traditional insurance companies don't understand about power sports riders: we're not all the same. Sure, your bike can hit 180 mph, but that doesn't mean you're out there every day racking up massive mileage.
Most sport bike enthusiasts fall into these categories:
- Weekend warriors who live for Saturday morning rides through the mountains or the city.
- Track day addicts who trailer their bikes to the circuit.
- Canyon carvers who know every curve within 100 miles of home.
- Fair weather riders who garage their bikes when conditions aren't perfect.
- Collectors with multiple bikes that see limited street time.
Traditional insurance treats all these riders the same – and charges accordingly. A Ninja ZX-10R gets hit with high premiums whether it sits in a garage 360 days a year or gets daily track abuse.
Why Pay Per Mile Insurance is ideal for Sports bike riders?
We understand that owning a high-performance machine doesn't automatically make you a high-mileage rider. Their pay-per-mile system is practically designed for power sports enthusiasts.
Here's how it works for your specific riding style:
- Track Day Riders: If you trailer your bike to the track, those miles don't count toward your premium. You're only charged for the street miles getting to and from your trailer.
- Weekend Warriors: That epic 200-mile canyon run every Saturday? You pay for those 200 miles, not some inflated annual estimate that assumes you're commuting daily.
- Seasonal Riders: Store your R6 for winter? Your insurance reflects reality – no miles, minimal cost.
- Multi-bike Owners: Have a track bike and a street bike? Each gets rated on its actual usage, not industry averages.
Real Savings for Sports bike owners
Sean's KTM 300 insurance cost dropped by 50% compared to his previous provider. For many power sports riders, VOOM delivers savings of up to 60%, with some paying as little as $50 annually.
Think about it: if you only put 3,000 miles on your bike annually instead of the assumed 10,000+, why should you subsidize higher-mileage riders through your premiums?
