Knee Down Action
13 Dec 2008
I was riding my bike along a quiet Country road, when a smooth fast right-hander just begged me to gun round it. I cracked my R6 nicely open, got myself into a good position, then dug my knee in. I managed to hit the cats-eyes with my knee, but that didn’t unsettle me, I was […]
Grating in the Road
13 Oct 2008
Recently I was out on a ride in an area I do not know very well. I was riding carefully around a few bends, and all of a sudden I was thrown from my bike because of a metal grating across the road that was loose and rocking on its axis. I have since checked […]
Trans-Action
26 Sep 2008
I was riding to work on my old Honda Translap, headlight on, filtering around the outside of stationery traffic at less than 10mph, according to witnesses.
Exhaust Issues
13 Sep 2008
Can I make my exhaust pipes which are marked ‘not for highway use’ legal by putting baffles in them and then getting the bike re-MOT’d? Answer No, sorry, even though what you are doing is perfectly sensible, because you would have a quiet bike, the offence is riding a motorcycle on the road with cans […]
Going Dutch?
I have an ongoing claim which is being dealt with by solicitors. I’ve been left with severe pain in my lower back as a result of an accident, and it stops me working. I’ve been for my medical appointment, and the defendant’s insurers are now asking for access to my medical records, but there are […]
Dirty Droppings
13 Aug 2008
I was riding my Blade out on a warm summers evening when I came round what was a blind bend at a fairly decent speed, nothing too fast and I was well under control, when my bike shot out from underneath me. I had no real idea what had happened until I stopped rolling, touched […]
Defective Bike
13 Jul 2008
I recently purchased a bike from a local dealer. About two weeks later I was coming back from a ride in the countryside when all of a sudden the electrics went and everything was pitched into darkness, as there were no street lights around.

How Can I Prove I Was Not Speeding?
13 Feb 2008
I was involved in an accident which was not my fault. A car driver just pulled out in front of me in a 30 zone with me right on top of him, just like in the advert on TV. After apologies from him, I got a mate to pick me and my bike up in […]
Health Hazard
13 Jan 2008
I’ve been involved in an accident, liability isn’t a problem, and I thought I was just waiting for a cheque. But I have private health cover through my employers, and they’re now after me for the costs of treatment. I thought I had private health cover to pay for this sort of thing, but they’re […]
Harley Fairplay
13 Dec 2007
On 16th August 2007 my bike, a Harley-Davidson 883 Roadster, was parked on a mate’s drive. While it was there, a driver reversed onto my mate’s private drive, and knocked the bike over. Me and the two other people I was with at the time looked out of the window and saw this driver hit […]
Inquest Enquiry
18 Sep 2007
I was involved in a tragic accident in which a good friend of mine was killed. He appeared to go out of control in front of me, for reasons nobody has ever really got to the bottom of. I’ve been summonsed by the coroner to give evidence at the inquest, which I don’t really want […]
Rash Gravel
17 Aug 2007
I’m already getting the advice of another solicitor, but I would like a second opinion. My current solicitors tell me I don’t have a case, but I think I do.
Insurance Faker
26 Jun 2007
I was knocked off my motorcycle by a driver who is a well known local scrote. I personally believe he’s a drug dealer, I don’t think he’s passed his driving test, and I’ll be amazed if he had insurance. The police knew him by name when they showed up at the scene and asked him […]

James Berry from Cambridgeshire collected his CCM 404 on the 5th July. The card was an old GSXR from about 3 years ago. Every time he goes to a show he collects prize draw cards, they are all pinned up next to his computer. James is a subscriber to the winning number email service and […]
Innercity 125
25 May 2007
I was quite badly injured after a pillion ride from this bloke I don’t know particularly well. He showed up with a new Aprilia 125 outside a pub and offered me a lift into town.
