### Wyoming at a Glance

*Requirements and regulations may change. Verify with the Wyoming Department of Insurance and the Wyoming Department of Transportation for the most current information.*

| **Requirement** | **Details** |
| --- | --- |
| **Minimum liability** | 25/50/20 ($25k bodily injury per person, $50k per accident, $20k property damage). Uninsured motorist coverage is included unless you reject it, and underinsured motorist coverage is optional. |
| **Helmet law** | Required for operators and passengers under 18. Wyoming law doesn't require eye protection, but your headlight has to be on at all times. |
| **Lane splitting** | Illegal. Wyoming law bars riding between lanes of traffic or between rows of vehicles. Two motorcycles may ride side by side in one lane. |
| **Registration** | No safety inspection and no emissions testing — just a VIN inspection for bikes coming from out of state. As of September 2026, the state fee is $25 a year, plus a county fee based on the bike's factory price and age. |

## What you need to know about Motorcycle Insurance in Wyoming

Wyoming leaves helmets up to riders 18 and older, doesn't require underinsured motorist coverage, and treats riding uninsured as a misdemeanor that can mean jail time. Here's what actually shapes your policy.

### Wyoming's 25/50/20 Minimum

The state requires 25k/50k bodily injury and $20k property damage. Uninsured motorist coverage comes with your policy unless you reject it, but underinsured motorist coverage isn't required at all — so it's worth asking about. We'll help you figure out what makes sense for how you ride.

### Agreed Value for Custom Builds

Your Sport Chief with the new exhaust and custom paint isn't a stock bike. Roamly works with carriers who may value your sweat equity, not some database guess.

### Peer-to-Peer Rental Coverage

Riders come for the Beartooth Highway, the Chief Joseph Scenic Byway, and Yellowstone. Want to list your bike on Twisted Road or Riders Share for them? Many personal policies exclude rental use, so check yours first. Roamly works with carriers who may be able to help.

### SR-22 Filing When Needed

After a DUI or a conviction for riding uninsured, the Wyoming Department of Transportation requires an SR-22 for three years. Roamly works with carriers that file SR-22s, and we'll help you get the filing started. No judgment.

## Protection Beyond Basics

| **Type** | **Details** |
| --- | --- |
| **Mechanical Breakdown Coverage** | Engines fail at the worst times — like on the Chief Joseph Scenic Byway, up near Dead Indian Summit. Through Roamly's carrier partners, coverage may be available to help with sudden mechanical breakdowns beyond warranty. |
| **Riding Gear Coverage** | Helmets, jackets, boots, and gloves — even though Wyoming only requires a helmet under 18, mountain passes can be cold even in July. Roamly works with carriers who may offer coverage options to help protect your riding equipment. |
| **Agreed Value for Custom Builds** | Your garage-built bike is worth more than a database number. Roamly works with carriers who offer Agreed Value coverage that may insure your build for what it's actually worth. |

## Rent Your Bike Without Losing Coverage

The Beartooth, the Chief Joseph Scenic Byway, and the roads into Yellowstone draw riders from all over the country, and a bike can do more than sit in the garage between your own rides. Listing yours on Twisted Road or Riders Share can help it earn its keep, but many personal policies exclude rental use — check yours before you hand over the keys. Roamly works with carriers who may cover your bike even when it's rented through legitimate platforms, which may help you earn from your bike while keeping it protected.

## What Wyoming Actually Requires

**Wyoming mandates 25/50/20 liability coverage for motorcycles, the same as for cars.** That's $25k per person and $50k per accident for bodily injury, plus $20k for property damage. Uninsured motorist coverage is included unless you reject it, underinsured motorist coverage is optional, and Wyoming is an at-fault state with no PIP, so medical payments coverage is an optional add-on worth considering. Riders under 18 need a helmet, and every rider's headlight has to be on at all times. The minimums keep you legal, but they won't go far if you total someone else's Road Glide or hurt someone badly — and liability alone doesn't pay to fix or replace your own bike. We'll help you figure out what makes sense for your situation.

## Custom Builds Get Real Value

**You built your bike the way you wanted it: Vance & Hines exhaust, Corbin seat, custom paint, and upgraded suspension.** Stock book value doesn't account for the work you put in or the parts you upgraded. Roamly works with carriers who offer Agreed Value coverage options — we'll help document your build so it may be insured for an agreed amount that reflects your upgrades, which may help if you ever need to file a claim.

## Frequently asked questions

### What's the minimum motorcycle insurance required in Wyoming?

Wyoming requires 25/50/20 liability coverage: $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident for bodily injury, plus $20,000 for property damage. Uninsured motorist coverage is included unless you reject it. These minimums keep you legal, but they might not be enough if you cause serious damage or injury. Requirements may change — verify with the Wyoming Department of Insurance.

### Do I have to wear a helmet in Wyoming?

Only if you're under 18. Operators and passengers under 18 need a helmet that meets the state's standard, and you can't carry a passenger under 18 without one. Adults can decide for themselves, and Wyoming law doesn't require eye protection. Your headlight does have to be on at all times, day or night.

### How much does motorcycle insurance cost in Wyoming?

It depends on your bike, riding history, where you live, and the coverage you pick. Keeping or rejecting uninsured motorist coverage, adding underinsured motorist coverage, and adding collision, comprehensive, or medical payments will all change the price.

### Does Roamly cover peer-to-peer rentals like Twisted Road?

Roamly is a brokerage — we work with carriers who may cover your motorcycle while it's rented through platforms like Twisted Road and Riders Share. Many personal policies exclude rental use, so it's worth checking yours before you list. Coverage terms, conditions, and availability vary by state and policy.

### Will you insure my custom build at real value?

Roamly works with carriers who offer Agreed Value coverage options. We may help document your mods up front so your bike can be insured for an agreed amount, not a depreciated database number. If it's totaled, the agreed value — less any deductible — is what the policy is built around. Coverage terms, conditions, and availability vary by state and policy.

### Do I need full coverage or just liability?

Liability is what Wyoming requires — it pays for damage you cause to other people and their property. "Full coverage" usually means adding collision and comprehensive, which help pay to repair or replace your own bike after a crash, theft, vandalism, or hail. If you're financing, your lender will likely require both.

### What if I need SR-22 in Wyoming?

An SR-22 is a certificate your insurer files with the Wyoming Department of Transportation to prove you carry at least the minimum coverage. It's required after a DUI, a conviction for riding uninsured, and certain other suspensions, and you'll need to keep it for three years. If it lapses, your license is suspended until it's refiled. Roamly works with carriers that file SR-22s and can help you keep it active. Coverage terms, conditions, and availability vary by state and policy.

### Does my credit score affect my rate in Wyoming?

It can. In Wyoming, credit can't be the sole reason an insurer cancels, denies, or non-renews your policy, and the insurer has to tell you when credit is used to underwrite your policy and when it works against you. Your riding record, bike, and location are also major rating factors, and how much each one counts varies by carrier.

### What happens if I ride uninsured in Wyoming?

It's a misdemeanor. As of September 2026, a conviction can bring a fine of $500 to $1,500 and up to six months in jail, plus a three-year SR-22 requirement. On a second or later offense, you'll also have to turn over your registration and plates. Officers can check your coverage online at a stop, so it's worth keeping your policy current.
