Motorcycle insurance and GPS tracker: the effective solution to pay less?

Protecting your motorcycle while reducing your insurance costs is possible thanks to the use of a GPS tracker. By equipping your two-wheeler with this device, you improve its safety against theft and you can benefit from financial advantages from certain insurers, in particular Solly Azar, specialist in 2-wheel insurance.

Why invest in a GPS tracker to secure your motorcycle?

A GPS tracker is much more than just a location tool: it is a real ally for the anti-theft protection of your motorcycle. Here are some of the key benefits:

1. Enhanced security against theft
   In the event of theft, a GPS tracker makes it possible to track the position of your motorcycle in real time, greatly increasing the chances of rapid recovery (by law enforcement). This also deters thieves who increasingly know that such a device complicates their task.

2. Reduction of insurance premiums
   The insurance premium is the amount you pay regularly (monthly or annually) to your insurer for coverage. By equipping your motorcycle with a GPS tracker, you reduce the risk of theft, which incentivises insurers to offer lower premiums. A better protected motorcycle means less cost for the insurer, which can result in significant savings for you.

3. Lower the amount of your deductible
   The deductible is the amount that remains at your expense in the event of a claim covered by your insurance. For example, if your deductible is €300 and the cost of repairs is €1,000, the insurer reimburses €700. By installing a GPS tracker, some insurers, such as Solly Azar, propose to reduce or even cancel this deductible in certain situations, in particular in the event of theft. This constitutes a significant financial advantage in the event of an incident.

4. Practical features
   Some GPS trackers offer additional services such as alerts in case of suspicious movement, the possibility to configure secure areas (GPS geolocation) or usage reports to analyse your journeys.

How to choose a GPS tracker adapted to your motorcycle?

Before investing in a GPS tracker, here are some important criteria to take into account:

1. Battery life
   Choose a model that can operate for several days without recharging. High-end models sometimes include low-battery alerts.

2. Discreet installation
   An invisible tracker further discourages thieves. Some models are designed to hide perfectly in the frame or accessories of the motorcycle.

3. Connectivity
   Opt for a device that offers real-time alerts via a mobile app. Some tracers also make it possible to configure secure areas: you receive an alert if your motorcycle leaves a defined perimeter.

4. Assurance and compatibility approval
   Make sure that the tracer meets the criteria imposed by your insurer. Models such as the Flashbird and the Invoxia GPS Pro are often recognised for meeting these requirements.
