View Full Version : Had some v good news-re my accident
Well its looks to be on its closing stages now :)
Been paid out for bike, been paid out for my excess, saw the insurance doc and have now had a letter through from my solicitor from the other parties insurance making an offer on my injuries etc which im going to accept :cool:, not bad seeing as its only taken 8 months from accident-now :D.
Payment will pay off the daytonas finance and few other things and thats me all sorted.
I know it could be a few more months before i recieve the actual payment but im nearly there.
Virtual drinks on me (NOT literally!!) lol :rave:

Glad to hear it. 8 Months isnt soooo bad. Though what was it waiting for the blame? I got my Excess back very quickly.
So what can you rev it to atm?
She admitted blame at the scene and straight away to her insurance, its my leg that held things up as it took awhile to heal/they wanted to make sure im 100% again

That's great news! Hope you get what you want.
I am still in the midst of my claim from 11th Dec. '07. The third party have made an offer, but according to my Solicitor, it's too low, so I am waiting for a better one. It may take three or four more weeks, but what's that in the overall scheme of things?
Hope the 675 is all you hoped it was going to be and more!

Well done, now get riding that 675 :D (and watch out for it, after your post the other day about the thieves around the area - tis a lovely bike and don't want it going walkies!)

Yeah I would counsel caution as well.
Shiny sportsbikes are always getting nicked for spares as much as for the whole bike, I figure mine's coat of oil and crud, dings, crap paintjob and gaffer tape appearance acts to reduce the chance of it being nicked!
shes never left parked outta sight for long and ive now bought a hefty chain to lock her to stuff when i do have to leave her

Well that's probably a fair deterrant to the opportunists.
How are you liking the thing?
getting used to her, had a few doubts and v nearly sold her but treacle and a few others told me to stick with it, have a carbon race can on order for her and am looking at getting some gilles rearsets in gold next :)
Yer i know if a real theif wants her they'll take her regardless but as you said if i can stop the opportunist theif then thats something! shes alarmed aswell as chain.
Good news! Even better if you are 100% in just 8 months!
My last accident was March 20th 2001 (I think, been that bloomin long now!) and I am still waiting for the paltry amount the judge awarded! Doesn't even cover my dental bills! No doubt on fault, just on lawyer's ability to do his job, grrrrr!
Moral is forget bikes in Spain, the w*****s don't understand STOP!!!
