Thats a real kick mate. At least you noticed the smoke before you felt the flames. As Mike says take the insurance money and buy the trike back off them.

Once I got it home & did a bit of investigating it tured out to be the genuine Yamaha Virago ignition I got for it decieded it wanted to short out and melt the wires causing the fire by the looks of things....
Insurance classed it as a cat B so no salvage for me...instead a bike breakers will end up buying it from the salvage company and make a killing on my loss lol.....On a plus side they have agreed with my valuation for it & have paid me out in full.......
Already got another Virago here stripped and 90% done paintwork wise so just got to finish the paint & convert it over to a Trike.......Also managed to buy another Trike that I have to arrange going to collect in sunny Scotland......Voodoo....

I had a bike written off and the insurance wouldnt let me buy it back. When the breaker phoned to arrange collection I struck a deal with him directly, stripped everything I needed and scrapped the frame. Might be worth having a word with the breaker mate, you never know he may be up for it. |
