A few month back I was very unfortunate to be involved in a accident on my fazer. Cutting a long story short a car came straight through a roundabout with out looking to is right, I tried to avoid the car and went crashing down. The driver admitted to me that he did not look and told is insurance the same.
So I thought no problem let the insurance fight it out then I should be able to get the bike fixed. How wrong can you be his insurance refuse to pay up and my insurance say if we take them to court we would lose as there was no actual collision and no witnesses, as his insurance will use a loop hole in the law which in my opinion is very wrong. I refuse to claim through my own insurance on principal and the fact that I would have to pay a £200 access.
I have repaired most of the damage myself and to be honest there was not a great deal done to the bike as the crash protectors took most of the impact. Just thought that I would bring this to your attention because according to my insurance if you don't hit the vehicle you will lose your claim.
