What does KB think i should do to this prick?

[jrandom]

The odds may be better but it appears that the stakes are in fact much higher.

You do realise that people bin and write their bikes off on the road too, right?

He agreed that AMCC wasn't responsible, not that he was happy to be fucked in the arse by all and and sundry without complaint.

The first bit kind of sets the scene for the event though. All care, no responsibility.

DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY
1. I am aware that the sport of Motorcycling might:
a. Cause me injury, serious or otherwise.
b. Damage my property.
2. I wish to take part in this training day despite the above risks.

[SMOKEU]

So when Rossi/Ducati crashed and knocked off Stoner/Honda should Ducati pay Honda for the cost of fixing the bike???????????????????

The at fault party should pay. Maybe I should "accidentely" push your bike over and then see what attitude you have.

[Kornholio]

If it was on a fucking AMCC training day being ridden by a couple of nubs then YES, that is exactly what should happen.

[Crasherfromwayback]

Cool story bro...but not quite good enough for me to upload the relevant meme

You just upset you don't have any?

I do. You do realise that if I got hit by an old lady on the road whose insurance policy had lapsed then I could expect to either get paid by her directly or follow some court process and collect money from her, right?

You didn't sign a disclaimer before leaving your garage that morning that you accepted that what you were doing might result in injury or equipment damage and that that would be your problem if it happened, though, did you?

[flyingcrocodile46]

Unfuckingbelieveable.

You roll the dice you take your chances. It ain't cool to blame the others at the table if you luck out.

Nobody seems to be considering that maybe the other guy had no malicious or mischievous intent. That he didn't set out to undertake on purpose and that he simply misjudged things (as CFWB said).

Think about this. What if you accidently got into a corner too hot. Easy enough to do. Insted of ramming the sorry cunt in front of you up the arse you try and go inside. You tuck the front trying your best and skittle him.

I saw a guy by the name of Valentino Rossi do this last year.

It happens. It's a retard of a mistake at any level...but it's life.

If insurance has paid out the OP then he may (injuries aside) have come out as well or better than the other 'accident' victim

So what are we talking about then? persecuting the other victim because he didn't come off as bad. Maybe the other victim was braking in reasonable time to overtake the OP on the inside before the corner and the OP is a nonce and braked way too early then fucked up by turning in early and cutting across the other victims line?

We shouldn't be too quick to pass judgement based on only one side of the OP's story.

Maybe you should... I dare ye

Mind you he knocks it over himself enough without you helpin him

... oh, yeah, that too.

There is a culture in New Zealand motorcyling that suggests all track days are to be undertaken willing because they will improve the rider who undertakes them's skill. I don't think that we should accept what may well be the status quo that having your bike destroyed on such an event is fine because it was on a race track.

Baaaaahaaaaasa. Fuck VBulletin. That's all.

That wouldn't happen on a Hyosung !

[SPP]

The organisers of ART take safety VERY seriously and are very quick to pull up dangerous riding.
I fully understand that the OP feels hard done by but I hope it doesn’t put him off ART (or any other track days).

I hope the OP has a speedy recovery and gets out again. Bales are softer than ditches.

...Were you there mate? Are you saying you saw what happened? Or are you simply taking what the OP has said as gospel 100%?..Maybe the OP doesn't know the full story yet either...

Ah, another side of the story perhaps? relative speed and line choice through a very quick corner could have played a part in the incident. Just sayin

[Madness]

Correct, so what. Every other participant on the race track that day also (presumably) signed the same document. Therefore, everyone on the track acknowledged in writing that what they were doing could potentially cause them injury (serious or otherwise) or damage their property. Despite this imminent risk, both the OP and every other participant still wanted to participate in the activity.

Call me stupid but I don't remember signing anything like this when I got my Drivers Licence. Nor do I sign anythink like this when I pay my rego, jump on the bike or into the car for a pootle on the road..

I also believe that track days result in a false sense of security, espcially with many young sports bike riders, with serious consequences.
Just because your bike can do 250 kph doesent mean you mind can keep up.
