Committed to Serving You While Keeping Our "Social Distance" - COVID-19 Message

Our nation has been trying its best to stop COVID -19 from spreading in our communities.  Not knowing what will happen in the next few weeks and months leaves us all with questions.   In order to keep all of us as safe and healthy as possible, we are going to maintain contact with you via phone, email and regular mail service as needed.  We are not scheduling in-office or face-to-face meetings.

At this time, Dan, Wanda and Gwen are in the office Monday through Friday 9-5pm daily.  We are responding to all calls and emails in a timely manner.  Just know, we can also work remotely and will be able to respond to any needs in the event of a full office closure.  Should you need to make a payment or a policy change, please reach out to us directly at 651-264-1230.  The Contact Us tab at the top of the website has all of our emails as well. 

If it is after hours and you have a claim to report, calling your carrier directly would be a faster response.  This is a great time to make sure you have your insurance carrier's MOBILE app as well.  Here is the carrier link page.  https://www.lancetteagency.com/links.aspx

Five steps to discourage motorcycle theft

Summer is motorcycle riding season, especially on those older, winding roads in the country. But it is also bike theft season. Less than 30 percent of stolen motorcycles are ever recovered. Here are a few suggestions to help your motorcycle customer prevent a theft.

  1. Park where it can be seen. Whether stopping for lunch or for the night, park the bike where you can keep an eye on it, under as much light as possible. Look for security camera coverage, too.
  2. Lock it up. Use multiple layers of locking. A physical lock on either the brakes or wheels will immobilize the bike, and take an extra step and connect it to something immobile such as a street lamp. Lock the ignition, too. Even if stored inside, don't leave the key in the ignition.
  3. Choose where to park the trailer. If transporting a bike on a trailer, back it up against a wall, post, or even shrubs to make it harder for a would-be thief to roll the bike down the trailer ramp.
  4. Take photos. If there is a theft, photos will help with the recovery and identification, as well as the insurance claim. Be sure to photograph the accessories.
  5. Keep important documents. Proof of insurance, license, and title should stay with the driver, not the bike. Keep copies at home, too.
Remember that American Modern offers replacement cost coverage on bikes 2 model years and newer. And that coverage remains in effect even after the bike passes its second birthday. Plus, travel loss reimbursement, including emergency towing and trip interruption, can be added when comprehensive and collision coverages are purchased. Call us to discuss your motorcycle insurance options at (651) 264-1230.
