ok guys/gals.... long story short ..... 22 august knocked off my new 790 duke...... first bike accident in 40 years !!!!!...... other party has accepted liability..... gutted... bike badly damaged but will be repaired...... that side of the claim seems pretty straightforward in that third party's insurer will pay for repairs..


but i have a broken ankle ....... bennetts my bike insurance company have directed me to minster law ( no win no fee ) malarky who are handling the injury side of things..


although they are "no win no fee" .... they charge a success fee of up to 25%...... research shows all these firms charge similar fees, so i suppose one firm not much better than another in this respect.....


Question is..... do i really need to use one of these no win no fee firms......i have always been anti these companies in the past..... can i just not submit my expenses to third party's insurance company.... there must be a standard "broken ankle " payment plus loss of earnings that i can easily supply and prove


i'm gonna be on crutches 6 weeks minimum , no load bearing on my broken ankle.....major upheaval really, but i suppose it could have been much worse....


Any advice from anyone legally minded/ or been through similar appreciated


thanks

My bike was classed as a Cat N write off due to bent front forks.
I've searched the DVLA website and I'm a bit confused as it states to notify them when the bike is sold to the insurance company. I didn't sell it to them, I've kept the salvage.
I'm getting the forks repaired, so any advice on next steps with the DVLA is appreciated.

Ive been lucky with punctures but this week I managed to pick up an inch woodscrew in the rear tyre , left it in an rode home 25 ish miles , just about got home with 12 psi left........got up early this morning and thought I would have a go at repairing it with one of the two ŕoad side repair kits I have ,  one a crafty pluggef and the other a FOWLERS version of the same thing , used the fowlers one following the inst
ructions and in about 10 minutes the jobs done , didnt use the air canisters , I'll save them if I ever get stuck in the middld of  nowhere , I recently bought a SLIME compressor to use with the repair kits , connects to the bikes battery and easily pumps the tyre up to recòmended pressure , just a shame both items dont fit under the seat....I'll let the pictures do the talking but happy to answer any questions......well it is FOCU

Hypothetical question. Would a Fazer 600 run without its fuel pump as the tank is above carb height.

Had to fit a new set of EBC HH pads. Mechanic found one side of front was all most down to the limit,  but other side seemed ok ??Easy fit and did not take long. Been out and gently been using the brakes. The pads seem to be binding on the discs  and when you push the bike about my drive I can feel the resistance. Is this normal? Will it settle in with use, or have I fitted them wrong?

I bought my fazer in 2005 brand new and within 2000 miles had the full monty fitted by Mike. I have fitted r6 shock, 2008 R1 front end and lot's of other accessories over the years. The bike has been amazing.... But times are changing and modern bikes are now, very advanced. I used to ride my Fazer and think it was top level handling and motor. It still is in many respects, but for a hooligan ride out at the weekend it's not doing it for me as much as my other bike, so now it has a new role... I am actually doing more miles on it because of this! It now is my all round travel bike/ winter bike. I have taken it to orkney isles, western isles and everywhere in between and it has been faultless apart from the alarm :\  I still love it. Never to be sold.

'Ello all,


My friend's band is playing at a charity bike night at The Knoxbridge, Frittenden, Kent on Thursday 13th September.  It kicks off at 7.00pm


Anyone about?  Can either meet there for a cuppa and a natter or we can have a fun bimble down there from North Kent.  Or arrange your own bimbles from your own areas.  Would be good to see some foccers :-)

Any of you use a multi-guage?
Mine has less wires than the OEM dashboard has....notably there is nothing to connect the wire from the fan to that used to connect to the dash PCB.
My fan will not work now. I've checked he fan & relay & they're fine.
Connecting that wire straight to live clicks the relay but doesn't start the fan.


Any experience to share?
