Motorcycle Insurance in Tennessee: Local Factors to Know

The Tennessee Department of Commerce and Insurance (TDCI) licenses the insurers and agents that sell motorcycle insurance in Tennessee. If you have a question about a claim or a company, TDCI's consumer services team can help, and you can confirm any agent's license on the Tennessee Department of Commerce and Insurance website.

Local risks that shape motorcycle insurance in Tennessee

Tennessee sees tornadoes like the March 2020 outbreak in Nashville, flash floods like the 2010 Nashville flood and the 2021 Waverly flood, and earthquake risk in West Tennessee near the New Madrid Seismic Zone. Tennessee requires at least 25/50/25 liability coverage, and insurers must offer uninsured motorist coverage unless you reject it in writing.

Tennessee tips before you buy motorcycle insurance

  • Price uninsured motorist and medical payments coverage, since riders are more exposed in a crash.
  • Ask about lay-up or seasonal options for months you do not ride.
  • Check that your agent holds a current Tennessee license with TDCI.
