Default Driving Ban

Guys I have been banned for 12 Months for being naughty

I don't want to sell the bike and have only just renewed the insurance.

Does anyone know what the procedure is for this - I don't get any points and would laike to get another NCB year at the end of it even though I am not riding.

anyone know the format?

Do I have to sell the bike?

You dont have to sell your bike, but you'll need to tell your insurance company.

I expect they'll offer you a policy that covers against fire and theft on the bike whilst your not able to ride due to the ban.

Well I am quite happy to remain on the fully comp insurance as my flat mate will use the bike every now and again when his TL1000S won't start lol.

It is a right pain as I have only just got back on the bike since March last year when I had an accident (bloody cabbies) and ruptured all the ligaments in my left knee (among other things).

Gutted!!

It is kind of a collection of things - Mainly SPEED

Lost my license for 3 Months in France for doing 212Kph

Managed to get a mate to bring the bike back on Eurostar and got caught here not long afterwards

English Police got given info from French police and all in all added up to a Ban

Hearing is on Monday - may be able to get it down to 9 Months if I go on some kind of Course.

But it is all my own fault and basically got carried away after being off the bike for so long - I also moved to an SV1000 after the accident from an SV650 - A lot of power there.

I couldn't get any sort of insurance at all not even for theft when I lost my licence (illness) because I didn't have a licence. So I just had to take my chances that it would be safe in the garage.
