Essentials For Installing A V Rod Body Kit

By Anthony Stevens


As much as there are many advantages of insurance, there are also terms and conditions that can prove to be a challenge. Such terms and conditions are normally not in favor of what one would want to achieve as they can prove to be limiting. One such instance would be when an owner of a motorcycle wants to install a v Rod Body Kit.

Apart from how a bike handles and its performance, bikers are also very particular on how the bike actually looks. Any scratches or dents will have a biker up in arms and rushing to their mechanics to have them fixed. Unfortunately, it is not always that you will find the exact part in the same color or form that will match the bike.

To them a bike must look as good as how it performs. That is why they go over and beyond including replacing the entire frame when they cannot find one part that is an exact match to the rest of the body. Still on the aesthetics, there are those who change the frame because they simply do not like how it looks.

For them the standard look that they bought the bike does not reflect their personality or simply does not make them feel good about the bike. They therefore opt to simply change the frame into something that is more suitable and appealing to them. A frame that identifies their tastes, likes, nature and makes them proud to own it.

This will in turn increase the chances of a payout for the insurance company. So depending on the type of frame you wish to install, an insurance company can decide to decline or increase your premium to cater to their costs. Such terms and conditions will limit your choices when it comes to choosing a frame suits your needs and is appealing to you.

The next thing to consider is insurance of the bike. Before installing a new body, you need to talk to your insurance company and find out if the modification is considered standard. Standard modification is considered to be one that basically retains or returns the bike into its original form. You will also need to give details of the type of kit that you are installing and the cost.

This will determine if the insurance company will approve the modification or refuse. Many insurance companies do not have a problem in installing a new body what they normally have an issue is with the type. If the type of body installed will increase the aesthetic value of the bike greatly, then your premium is likely to increase as chances of the bike getting stolen are high increasing their chances of paying out.

Once all the above are in check then you can find a suitable, well-trained and experienced mechanic to do the installation. Be sure to work with someone who understands what you want to achieve with the final look and has a reputation of doing a good job. In the end, you will end up with an alluring bike that is well covered and is not in any violation of the rules.
