Re: Moving to NL, should i sell my ‘04 or ship?

I'm just wondering if it would make it harder to sell, but as you say I won't get any more for custom parts, just a shame as I no longer have the tools, time or space to strip it back :(

Notify current insurance about previous policies 'dismissed' claim?

Hi all,

Hunting high and low for any info on this, to no avail.

After renewing my insurance I had a claim made against me which fell under my old policy (different company).

Re: Prevent cover getting stolen - again!

Red Herring - I like it but I wouldn't be happy about revealing that kind of info.

NTECUK - That was my first thought but I think that could attract some unwanted vandalism too.

I'm thinking that I can paint something on it which would make any would-be thief reluctant to nick it. It has...

Re: K4 pointy written off, time to make some mods!

Cheers Dunn-y.

Sadly no post to chain it to, but I have been offered a drive to park it in, so it should at least be safe from knocks in future.

I have started using my English chain and...

Re: Help! Insurance coming to take and auction my bike!

Thanks for giving it some clarity, I was hoping this might be a reasonable scenario.

I have to hope now that I get a decent offer from insurer #2, and before insurer #1 decides to settle the...

Re: Help! Insurance coming to take and auction my bike!

I have had the inspector around who has written it off as expected, he told me to expect to pay at least 40% of the value - £200 less than it is...

Re: Help! Insurance coming to take and auction my bike!

Thanks Heorot. There is no storage as I still have my bike, the only additional cost I have given (to the solicitor provided by my insurers) was the garage quote fee.

I'll see what the insurers...
