paul, when you pay your premium , you pay to indenmnify any losses you incure through theft damage fire etc,
they are legally bound to replace the bike you had with a new one the same model ,

one or the rules of insurance is that in the event of a claim, you can be neither better or worse off after settlement,

ie, you had X bike stolen, you fget X bike replaced or cash equivilent,


do not let then dictate to you where you replace the bike from, if you have to go elswhere , then you tell then so,

and take no bullshit,

if they get funny about you wanting to shop elswhere tell then to just replace the model you had stolen withing 14 days,, that will soon have them realising they are fucked,

Sold the turbo and seeing what the C20XE can do!

Near Lincoln

they seem a bit pricey as well, the bike i got is £330 on there and i got it for £270 soa big difference on a relatively cheap bike.

I dont get why you have to use them, if your car got nicked your insurer wouldnt tell you who to buy a replacment car off!!
Granted the DMR is heavy, tried using it for trials for a while, soon gave up with it lol. one of my mates used to used a sidekick for trials, god knows how?
