Depreciation refers to the reduction in the cost of the bike over the years. It becomes crucial at the time of settling the claim. The wear and tear of the vehicle machinery can reduce the vehicle's value and performance. Some insurers provide cover for replacing the small parts, but it is not included in the depreciation cover. The expense of replacing or repairing it is called the deductible. These deductibles are not included in the claim settlement amount. Instead, they will go from your pocket.
