Motorrad Kernschrott | Was kannst Du tun?

omaha ok welcome to a new video on the stecher motortechnik channel my name is jan stecher I think I need to introduce myself much more often for everyone who sees us for the first time anyway welcome to a new video today we have the topic What we choose It was also a request from you: accident damage, what do you have to pay attention to, what is the process, what happens in the workshop, did I fall, what do I have to do, etc., etc. First of all, of course, we hope that you never need to know You have to do it or something else so that we all always get through the season without accidents and with your moderation you don't fall, nothing else happens because many Sometimes people say yes, that It's also good for you as a workshop.

There you can repair damage caused by accidents. From a purely commercial point of view, yes, of course, it's always a lot of money, but we didn't get the parts. free, which means that if you repair accident damage worth 14,000 euros, there are usually eight pieces worth 9,000 euros, I don't want to do the business calculations for you, the only point is that it looks better than that. The second is damage by accident, especially if it goes through insurance, it is much more work with everything that surrounds it with the declaration of assignment with insurance with shipping with photos with etc. the effort is much greater so you also need more time and the next thing is that we are with normal diagnostics repairs inspections tune-ups conversions everything we do race tracks events to eliminate busy enough that is why we hope that you always ride your motorcycle without fall and nothing happens, in case something happens and you fall moderately or if you run over or fall, it is always the most important thing for us too, that nothing happens to you.

In fact, there are many people who call us from the scene of the accident before the ambulance arrives and ask us how. how much does a new handlebar cost o o o can I do it a little I understand it a lot, I am also attached to my moped, but first take care of yourself, the most important thing is that it recovers if you get hurt, it's okay, for everything else, we are there to help you, advise you and support him in whatever he does. Repairing the motorcycle is important, perhaps on my part, now again, often accidents are not caused by you, but by another road user. , given the right of way, whatever, you will definitely be shot down through no fault of your own.

Yes, there are a few things to consider. But now I would like to make it very clear that we cannot give in. legal advice here. We also cannot provide legal advice. We are not lawyers. We are a motorcycle repair shop, so we can't explain to you how this works from a legal perspective. I can share some experiences with you. in one case or another, but these are really explicit experiences from other clients or sometimes mine on what you can do, so I'll just mention how I did it. Well, first let's deal with whether you yourself have fallen.

If you have fallen, as I told you, the most important thing is always your body and soul, and well, we will bring you some type of security. First of all, clarify yourself. Calm down a little. If you have fallen, fourth time, see that you are there all the time and then we will take care of it. . On the motorcycle, we can collect everything. We have trucks. Otherwise, there are ADAC companies, other towing companies or clubs, car clubs, insurance coverage letter, others that take care of motorcycle towing. I would always recommend after a you fall, no matter what it looks like at first glance towing the motorcycle you never know what happened, somehow it has a bent brake lever and maybe you go and when you first brake the thing breaks or somehow you have a knock on the brake disc or a bent fork or damaged tires that give you space or or or see really not only can I recommend if you had a fall, tow the father motorcycle without yourself because many then arrive here with a right device leftover somehow everything hangs somehow say yes I was still able to drive here somehow it's just fairing and then it turns out that I was lucky that everything worked out because somehow it's worn out here because the oil somehow It comes off and goes quickly to the rear wheel.

More or less, in the best case scenario, let them take it to the workshop and we will take care of it. Then we took a look at the motorcycle and looked at everything. If it's your fault, obviously you have to do it. Take a look at the bike and take a photo of the damage. We usually do this so of course we talk to the customer beforehand because we do the repair ourselves and you can clarify in advance if you want the motorcycle to be in order. a condition as it was before or how it was loaded or you want it to stay on if you have a scratch on the side panel for example you want it to stay on or should it be painted or should it be painted new normally we do it so first write down everything that is damaged and Then we personally sit down with the customer, we go to the motorcycle and tell them here is your order, you look at it and then we check the parts one by one. and say if that is the window that costs 80 euros, that is the headlight that is above it and that costs 800 euros and then you can differentiate all that, you can delete it and so on, so the damage record comes first and then it is always important.

That's always the first question we ask, what exactly happened because of course it makes a difference for a photo. Was the motorcycle somehow hit again by any object or collided with moderate objects? Did you slip on the street? hits somewhere in front It's against the side again, under certain circumstances it may have tipped over, it won't have another one on top or or then you definitely know where to look very closely and what to pay attention to So with super athletes, well, everything that there are currently are super thin aluminum bridges, I would definitely say that the glass frames are measured when people who have fallen because they are very thin things and from experience we have had the lightest falls where the frames are. they were misaligned, it had happened the other way around but I also had falls, the tank was quite hard, the front had to be torn off but I had to see if the frame was in order, the choice was in order so I can say that Generally speaking, yes You want to be sure, you have to measure the frame, we will do that.

In this case, not yourself, but we will hand it over to external companies who will then come here and measure the frame on site. It costs approximately 300 euros. Then you get a measurement report and this motorcycle could be sold again because it has to be sold as accident damage if it is actual accidental damage when he once presented the measurement reports and said we had measured it, but the. The frame is in order, everything around it was repaired and since then it has been on the safe side of the fork, now we would be in the same game as in this case, so here is a quick look at the Honda CB 1300 model that hit relatively spontaneously.

I can see, I think, unfortunately it's a little more than just scratches because a lot of things have already been broken. We can also see the impact point on the fork here and see it down here and these are just cases where I say definitely. should be We want to measure if the fork has been damaged by something. There are also companies that come to see if that is what happens, so maybe we wanted to know how the price is empty and at some point the stock is swinging. aligned with a laser and then with points on the front of the steering head angle, then it is always rotated and then measured and therefore the poor angle, camber and then the runout is determined, if necessary, a relatively complex system, a very interesting technology, this is how The frame is measured well, what we can theoretically do ourselves here is measure the brakes.

We could also measure it, but in the end you just have to remove the tubes from the cables and then you can make these. There are prisms or there are also these. support blocks, you can pick up the tubes with a measuring device on top or you can do it on the rotating ring to turn them on, of course, but then you can measure the impact of the tube, for example, for exact records of damage. , always go to the workshop first and then everything will be recorded. If you don't have school time, i.e. were hit by another road user, I can only say from experience that the process is seamless and painless.

As long as the other party in the accident admits to his insurance company at the scene of the accident and even afterward that he was at fault, then the process sometimes takes a little time, depending on the insurance companies to have it at hand. so much, but it works when the other party in the accident says it wasn't partly, it is also the case that Jan at the accident scene says yes, it's okay, I screwed up, I didn't see anything go wrong, so calm down down and then tells his insurance company why I haven't heard anything at all It's not my fault and that's where the problems usually start How to deal with it correctly I can't tell you that the timing is not right either and I don't think there is anything bad, but it definitely takes time and it is not something that depends on the workshop, so now it is independent but in our workshop from or somewhere else in the workshop if the insurance gets in the way then it takes time and unfortunately that is over and it ruins a whole motorcycle season and unfortunately that depends on the insurance, we have already experienced everything, always very stupid, but unfortunately it cannot be changed, otherwise the process would be like this: in the best case, the motorcycle arrives at the workshop and immediately You give them the information of the other party's insurance company of the person who caused the accident and if you have someone on hand you can hire a motor vehicle expert, an adjuster or yourself.

I can hire the workshop to prepare a report or a budget. I always have to say that sometimes it is a bit annoying because the clients then say yes, the insurance says they would like the quote and then you write the quote and take 20 photographs. and send everything to insurance then it took an hour and a half or two hours because there is so much damage here you have to look at everything is behind here damaged what plug connection first cable torn off what screws are missing in certain circumstances what kind of plastic pins here, what On the contrary, sheet metal, you have to take everything out one by one, write it down, often you are at it for a while, you have to take a photo of everything and then you send it to them.

The insurance and the insurance company says yes, we. I would like to have an appraisal so we wasted two hours of time for nothing because no one pays for the insurance, there are no cost estimates, we have discussed this topic quite frequently and have already contacted a very well known company about it. them because it really was a considerable effort for me but I don't even remember what they charged me, I don't even have to do an hour of work, I placed the order for us to do it. I sure consulted. We did it several times, I wanted more photos and in the end they brought an appraiser but I think I charged 70 euros or something like that and they didn't pay it, well endless discussion that's why now we often do it directly.

We hire an appraiser. because then we are out of the question of the power of the appraiser. This is usually accepted by the insurance company. There are also subtle details to consider, but that would be the case, then comes a motor vehicle expert who has the power. Ours examines the damage, except that a vehicle expert who is officially registered, commissioned and studied is definitely a little smarter than us and can judge everything much better. He writes everything down, then goes to insurance, and then continues. Of course, as long as the insurance does not offer claims, say yes, we will cover the costs, then we recommend saying okay, now we order the parts, but before that there is still a certain residual risk.

You may still be partially responsible for this, that, and in the end there are still costs, so we typically wait for an approval of the repair cost and then the parts are ordered and then we repair everything. In our opinion, that is the correct process anyway. I got a little into the topic, you fell, it tells me that the moderate drove home and now you want to have an overview of what is broken, of what really happened, always pay attention to this, if you remember it, what really happened. What happened is it just slid two meters across the meadow and stayed there because you say there's dirt everywhere and three scratches here or it's against a tree against the railing against a pillar or against a car or somewhere else.

In this case, it is very important that we have already noticed that you will have noticed it when you were driving. That's also the point where I say it's very, very, very dangerous if you're still driving with it and can see. the brake lever at the first moment Not bad, it continues to brake, but now we can do the following: put it on the main stand, now here the luxury is as extreme as here, a little on the steering wheel, so in the end It was like this , we push the vehicle here for a good ten meters.

Now notice when you turn, imagine that you are leaving with the vehicle and then the first curve arrives in which you want to brake and then the following happens: nothing whistles, no. Brake In this case, the discsfront right brake calipers were knocked out, meaning they are bent, to the point that when you move the disc, the impact pushes the brake pistons further and further back, the distance just isn't enough. Not anymore, so we've pumped a little bit again, now we've braked again, but that's the first moment where it's right in front of the corner and you have the second accident, just a little bit of reflection, maybe you've picked it up again . , okay, so if you would like to look for yourself, check exactly these things, make sure the wheels are relieved so you can turn them because now we also have spots on the rims that get hit.

That means that the rim has to be measured in any case either we have more air in the tire it is holding I would ask where the air is the tire is damaged the rim is so damaged that the air is lost or else, fork if you want to take a Look at the fork yourself, it may be tight. That can happen too. What you can do is hold it. The front of the vehicle must be relieved so that the wheel is in the air. at the top and bottom and then you could turn the tubes here, so if you turn these tubes now and notice that it is difficult to move in one place, then the fork is chrome or you remove the tomb once and put the axle over here without accelerating and don't go all the way through the other side and always turn the tube and see the axle move down and then the fork move.

These are the little hobby methods to take a quick look at and it's also always important We have the steering stops that are a little bit on the vehicle, now they are hard to see because stupid people can see through here because ultimately , we always have the steering stops at the bottom of the fork bridge, these are small castings, usually sometimes on Ducati they are also screwed on to control the steering angle here in the border countries, so now we have the problem here, we hit it like this, we're already going this far, that's always a bad sign because you can see it's really stupid.

Here, but simply the selected stop is damaged, it is switched off, pay attention, at the latest at the TÜV, the discussion is whether this happens. The stops are gone, so the fork bridge is new at the bottom and then not one. somehow to the ground, the screws are all new and in good condition. Others say to just look at everything in the vehicle so the craziest accident search stories don't include you at first, so if you have it, really look. through himself, volt, check everything on the handlebar issue, the handlebar is whatever, it had a relatively long lever arm, it depends if you now have a wide handlebar, of course, even more so if you fall on it, the probability is relatively high that the handlebar friend something But the fact is also that here in the rubbers it is screwed and in the rubbers if you hit it here sometimes it disappears in this recording that is why sometimes the handlebar is bad many times it is bent but one once they are in place then the outlet is crooked sometimes the case doesn't fix everything, you often notice that when you loosen the fork clamp it's hard and then it cracks once and then everything is straight again so in this case you hit the front anyway, you are a good hit in the rear, so someone drove in the rear, actually plays the same, check everything in the rear and take the new tire because upon arrival it was hit, You need a new tire, you just can't look at the rich, that's right, no one.

Check if the cash register was damaged. You could have her examined, but this is enough. Check for any damage in the accident, which costs more than new tires, so play it safe and replace the tire if it took a hit in the front. Here is the exact same tire and rim, see if anything was hit on the side. We have also had very small cracks, just look at the weld seams that are starting to break, so like I said I basically advise Applus Timmer to do it. somehow get it checked again by a specialized workshop or an expert if you had a fall if your fall was self-inflicted and pay for the damage yourself We are the last ones who somehow say that everything here is ordered new and.

When a new tank like this now costs 8000 euros, the person who orders it has nothing more, so first of all I have to say that I am not a big fan of always throwing everything in the trash, but I am happy when things are saved So if you say now that repairing a motorcycle would cost you 10,000 euros with new parts, the motorcycle is only worth seven like in detective novels but also with good used parts that you can get somehow, you can repair it for 5000 and it would still be fine. shame, then I am more in favor of not throwing away this motorcycle, but of keeping it and then repairing it with used parts, but I prefer to look for used parts in a well-thought-out place.

Well, I think now we could bring a little light to the darkness and thus describe our page about it, maybe help one or another who is currently searching, who may be affected at the moment. , again on our part, we hope that nothing happens to him physically, that everything is always in order in terms of health and whether he is within the framework. If you need help with repairs, we, as a motorcycle workshop, are of course the right contacts for you, so if you are, write diligently in the comments as always what you are thinking and then follow us on Instagram, subscribe to the channel and take care until next time.
