    What insurance do you have? Quinn & AON both offer breakdown assistance on their policies. You could just ring the emergency number and they'll send someone out. If it can't be fixed in situ they'll take it to a garage for you. After that the charges are on you.

    I have breakdown cover with Aon but is that not for 'realtime' side of the road stuff?
    My moped is in my underground carpark. was away for a good bit plus nasty weather left it sitting for too long?
    Would Aon not tell me to go and sh1te if I rang them? I'm not that good of an actor!
    Thanks for the reply.

    If you're worried about that then just wheel it down the road and ring them saying you've broken down. They won't get too pedantic about it. I done it once. Majesty 125 wouldn't start so i rang them(was with AON at the time) and they sent a van out to the house. Ended up being taken to a garage to be fixed.

    I done the same with the AA, pushed the bike a down the road a bit to a friend's house, then rang and told them I got a punture whilst out visiting friends.

    Thanks for all the advise fellas.
    Rang Aon yesterday. Called out and fixed onsite within the hour.
    Delighted. Should have done that weeks ago. Lesson learned.
    No prob at all that bike was in my car park.
    Anyhow I'm back in the game. Alot of practising to catch up on.
    Thanks again for the assistance. Look forward to posting again in here whever it is I know what your all talking about!:)
