You or your legal personal representatives must also let your insurer know immediately if anyone insured under this policy is to be prosecuted as a result of the incident or if there is to be an inquest or there has been a fatal accident.
2. You, or anyone else claiming under this policy must not admit to any claim, promise any payment or refuse any claim without the written consent of your insurer. If your insurer wants to, they can take over and conduct in your name, or in the name of the person claiming under the policy, the defence or settlement of any claim or take proceedings for their own benefit to recover any payment your insurer has made under this policy. Your insurer shall have full discretion in the conduct of any proceedings or the settlement of any claim. The person who is seeking payment under this policy shall give your insurer all the information and assistance necessary for them to achieve a settlement.
Cancellation
3. If this cover does not meet your requirements, you have a statutory right to return all your documents (including the Certificate of Motor Insurance) within 14 days of receipt or the start date of the policy, whichever is later. We will return any premium paid less a pro rata charge for the number of days for which cover has been given. The full annual premium is due if a total loss claim has been made during that period. If you do not exercise your right to cancel your policy within the statutory cooling off period, it will continue in force. If you wish to cancel your policy after the initial 14 day cooling off period you will receive a refund in premium, less a pro rata charge for the number of days for which cover has been provided. However, no refund will be due if you have made a claim on your policy during the current period of insurance.
NB: A cancellation will only become effective from the date BMW MOTORRAD Insurance receive the return of the current Certificate of Motor Insurance or a Statutory Declaration, if you have lost the Certificate of Motor Insurance. Your insurer or BMW MOTORRAD Insurance may cancel this policy by sending not less than 7 days notice to your last known address (and in the case of Northern Ireland, also to the Department of the Environment, Northern Ireland). Your insurer will calculate the premium for the period they have been insuring you (on a pro rata basis) and refund any balance.
Other Insurance
4. If at the time of any claim arising under this policy there is any other insurance policy covering the same loss, damage or liability, your insurer will only pay their share of the claim. This provision will not place any obligation upon your insurer to accept any liability under Section 2 that they would otherwise be entitled to exclude under Exception 1 to Section 2.
Your duty to prevent loss or damage
5. You shall at all times take all reasonable steps to safeguard your motorcycle from loss or damage. You shall maintain your motorcycle in efficient condition and your insurer shall have, at all times, free access to examine such motorcycle.
Premiums payable by Instalments
6. If you are paying your premium in instalments and you miss a payment, your insurer will cancel your cover. You will be given seven days notice prior to cancellation.
Your duty to comply with policy conditions
7. The provision of insurance under this policy is conditional upon you observing and fulfilling the terms, provisions, conditions and endorsements of this policy.
Fraud
8. You or any person acting for you must not act in a fraudulent manner. If you or anyone acting for you:
- makes any claim under the policy knowing the claim to be false or fraudulently exaggerated in any respect; or
- makes any statement in support of any claim knowing the statement to be false in any respect; or
- submits any document in support of any claim knowing the document to be forged or false in any respect; or
- makes any claim in respect of any loss or damage caused by your willful act or with your connivance; then your insurer:
- will not pay the claim;
- may at their option cancel the policy;
- may recover from you the amount of any claim paid in relation to the incident;
- will not make any return of premium;
- may inform the police of the circumstances.
Parties to this contract
9. The parties to this contract of insurance are you and the insurer. No one else has any rights they can enforce under this contract except those they have under the Road Traffic Acts.
Data Protection Act
10. Please refer to the Data Protection notice within your policy documentation, which contains important information about the use of your personal details. Please make sure that you read the Data Protection notice carefully. By taking out this insurance policy, you confirm that your personal details may be used in this way. As the terms of the Data Protection notice will also apply to anyone else insured under your policy, you should also show the Data Protection notice to anyone else whose name you have given us in connection with your policy.
Garaging Exclusion:
Policy Endorsements
Endorsement 004 - Increased Theft Excess
You have agreed that you will keep the motorcycle in a locked garage or building either at your home address or at the garaging address declared to the insurer when the motorcycle is not being used.

Basis of Settlement:
Section 1 Loss of or damage to your motorcycle
Section 1
Loss of or damage to your motorcycle If your motorcycle is lost, stolen or damaged, your insurer will, at their option, either:
-pay for your motorcycle to be repaired; or
-replace your motorcycle; or
-pay in cash the amount of the loss or damage.
The same cover also applies to accessories and spare parts relating to your motorcycle while these are on your motorcycle. The maximum amount your insurer will pay will be the market value of your motorcycle but not exceeding your estimate of value shown in their records. If, to the knowledge of the insurer, your motorcycle is subject to a hire purchase or leasing agreement, any payment will be made to the owner described in that agreement whose receipt will be a full and final discharge to your insurer.
Accident recovery
If your motorcycle is disabled through loss or damage insured under this policy, your insurer will pay:
-the reasonable cost of protection and removal to the nearest appropriate repairer.
-the reasonable cost of delivery to you after the repair but not exceeding the reasonable cost of transporting your motorcycle to your address in Great Britain, Northern Ireland, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man.
Excesses
If your motorcycle (including its accessories and spare parts) is lost, stolen or damaged, you will have to pay the first part of any claim. Your policy schedule will indicate the compulsory excess(s) applicable to your motorcycle(s). All excesses are cumulative and you should pay careful attention to the policy schedule and any additional endorsements to establish the amount you will need to contribute in the event of a claim.
