Why not? Insurance is there to cover your negligence and after all, he hit a rock. I don't see a problem whatsoever.

Even if the speed was excessive - like 180km/h in a 60 or 120km/h zone. Just asking for my own interest. I might be in the same position one day.

Please will you prove exactly what speed he was travelling at the time of the incident. Also was he driving recklessly or just fast? The point is he hit a rock.... I see no problem with that. Oh and Rone open a new thread to discuss speed vs insurance claim preferably without refering to someones particular incidentand don't be rude and hijack PomsRoné said:

I know the bike was insured, but I very much doubt that the insurance would cover it, if the claim forms were filled in 100% honestly, I took a few pictures of the crash scene, and sent them to Sean, as he was carted off to hospital straight after the crash. I certainly would not show them to the insurance company. Look at the picture below, I have highlighted my bike, parked next to where his stopped.

Pom if the claim form is correct I doubt that there would be a problem with the claim. He hit a rock.
Oh and Pom......
