Sorry to hear this Tom, hope you are not badly hurt and can get the cat back to life once again

Hi Tom.

Really sorry to hear that.
What's the damage?

I'm no mechanic but i have a haynes manual, a maintenance manual some
tools and can normally manage up to 3/5 spanner jobs in the Haynes manual.

I'll try and give you a hand if I can.

Cheers
Ross

Sorry to hear about your crash. I was knocked off by a cager earlier in the year. It's not a nice experience. Hope you aren't too badly injured. Like everyone told me, at least you are in one piece, the bike is repairable/replacable.

I'm miles away from Glasgow but will help via here as much as I can and I'm sure others will too. What's the damage like? Mainly Cosmetic?

Might be worth getting it checked over at a trusted garage first just to check nothing's twisted/bent before you go blowing money on it.

insurance decide to send me bike to "jacksons bike" and they will repair it.
thx god i dont have to pay for anything but again no bike for a long time :(

I'm glad it's getting sorted. You said the accident wasn't your fault, was another driver involved? Are you going to claim from their insurance?

Regards

Mike

glad to hear things werent too bad tom and that it seems insurance will cover things.

What happened? and as mike says above if there was another party involved that caused the accident could you claim from them?

i am mark as blue (thundercat)
and red mark (black Kia Sportage)
try to take over yellow mark. (white Citroen c3)

Well hopefully it won't be too long a process for you. Mines still going on now from May and doesn't like it'll end any time soon.

From your picture it's clear that it wasn't your fault. Hopefully they admit fault and it'll be straight forward for you.

Mike

police was there. and that man told them it was his fold.
that man call his insurance and inform them i will claim.
And BTW i will have car from them till i get my Bike back

Bloomin Eck.

That could have been so much worse.
Are you injured at all?
Sounds like insurance should take care of it.
As folks have said it can be a long drawn out process with insurance claims.
Hope it is resolved quickly for you.

With regards to fixing your bike - Glad you've got someone who should know what they are doing rather than me thinking I might know what I'm doing

Good Luck
Rosco

Seems like a nasty head on crash, lucky you weren't sereioisly hurt, car driver is a bit of a numpty over taking that close to a sodding roundabout!

i have swollen ankle and Scratch

police man told me its 50/50 fold. couse i sould be able to stop. i start shout at him. that car sould not be ther

If the car was overtaking and from the description you've given then I'd say it is 100% the drivers fault.

Amateur, my crash from March is still ongoing!

The Police officer can offer his opinion, but it is the Insurers that will decide liability, and if you have the third party admitting it was their fault, then it sounds like it should be a reasonably open and shut case.

Good luck getting it all sorted, but from experience they will write the bike off... but hold out for a good valuation, as they're worth a good couple of grand in decent condition.

I'd agree as well. One of the Police officers who attended my accident was similar as well. I think they try and stay neutral for some reason.

Regards

Mike

thats what i said . i said i can go to court and i know i will win

Thats why i gat Solicitors to deal with that

Hire car? I had a hire bike from Hexagon in London. But as long as you've got transport that's the main thing. Sounds like they've admitted liability if they've provided you with a hire car.

GWS Tom x

Solicitor will try to get my money couse of health reasons.
so i cant drive bike. its easyer to drive car. THEY WILL PAY

Surely if that diagram is accurate & the police were involved then the driver would have been charged with careless driving as a minimum?

they told him if he not gonna say it was his fold tha case will go to court and police will put a charges on him

Good luck with it all Tom, I've just been through the same nightmare and still have an unrideable bike through no fault of my own.

If its written off they pay out fairly quickly tho.

i do have one on the garden from last year. so now might have 2 , engineer will come tomorrow morning
