Felt really greasy out there tonight, be careful folks
Jeez Christo, fecking walking disaster area! You ok in yourself?Council to pay for it? No chance...
Good luck with that one!
Sorry to hear about this Christo, glad you're ok.What exactly is supposed to be the problem with this particular spot on that roundabout?
Sorry to hear your news Christo, I m hoping this is the third mishap and as things happen in threes your luck will improve.I bet it a round about with lots of lorries using it, the roundabouts on my way into the industrial estate where I work get coated with it.
A few back roads had some mud on them from the tractors doing there thing (living in the West country, you get used to it)
Mr T your life is eventful but good see your OKIts that time of year where my local council up north grit which is fine for the cold mornings but it ends up as grease especially if the suns been out and has melted the ice before the grit has done its work. Ride safeDaz
Trouble with going down the 'not a chance' route is you'd probably be expected to notify insurance. Can you afford that. Are you prepared to ride a piagio 50 ?
I believe they ask regardless of policy if you've had accidents or claims with in x yrs and if the council were to consider your claim I imagi.e they would direct it thru insurance. Just a thought, I'm no expert

End result - gouged fairings, the right subframe is twisted (mirrors don't fold on ZXs), and the screen is cracked. Anyone know how to go about getting the council to pay for the dammage? Especially as where my bike slipped is a known area to locals (as I find out afterwards. )
