Is this new?

If there's no loop holes, it's a great service!

I haven't heard anything about them since the sticky was last updated. I had thought that they were just aimed at tourists, but replacement bike rental is a great idea.

There is a catch, you have to be involved in a wreck that's not your fault

Motor Assist is a company of solicitors that have teamed up with motorcycle rental so you can have a free bike when you have a crash, Same as fully comp car insurance that provides a courtesy car. As Kev said the crash must be the fault of the other road user and the cost will be added to your claim. AFAIK the solicitors are the same company as Carole Nash use/used

Woman and cats will do as they please,and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea

It's some service. I wonder what you have to produce to prove you've really had an accident and also that you're not at fault.

I know a guy who used this service, his bike was written off when a woman pulled across in front of him at a set of lights.

He got a CB500 delivered to his door in Sligo, no hassles and for free.

Seems like a very good service to me.

Was given their details by Paul recently and had a rental bike delivered to me 2 hours later.

The bike does not have to be written off and they'll not only take all the negoatiation with batsard insurance companies out of your hair but also arrange a rental bike for up to 2 weeks.

Unfortunately I only found this thread when going to post it myself. I wasted 3 days trying to sort out the mess after Quinn dropped my bike, wish I had called these guys first as its been smooth sailing with less stress ever since.

Highly recomended and doesnt cost you anything.

Seems like a good deal. Now if only insurance companies were more ethical, and we didn't need solicitors...reducing the cost of claims and policies.....ah i dream a dream.

Agreed but if learned a few things

People will take the pish if they think they can get away with it

Companies tend to stop dragging their feet and not returning your calls when they're getting a bill for €110 per day!!
