All scooters and motorcycles are fully insured, the insurance covers damages against third parties, driver and passenger health assistance. That means that in an accident with another vehicle you do not have to pay for anything. If, however, during the accident you were under the influence of alcohol or any other type of drugs, then the insurance will not cover any damages and you will have to pay for all damages. Please note that Greek insurance does not cover any damages you make to the vehicle, you have to pay apart everything that is needed to be replaced. All the accessories (helmets, top case, phone holder, etc) are not covered with insurance as well and are paid apart in case of loss or damage.
The normal insurance cover damages against third parties, driver and passenger health assistance.
An additional insurance, is available to limit the amount to be paid in case of crash or theft. This extra insurance is on the name of the driver and is not valid if the driver doesn’t have prior experience of scooter/motorbike riding or if he/she let drive unauthorized persons. This extra insurance doesn’t cover any of the accessories.
