What Is A Motorcycle Accident Claim?
A motorcycle accident claim lets you seek compensation if you’ve suffered injury or loss in a crash that wasn’t your fault. Common reasons include another road user’s negligence, and hazardous road conditions. Whether you’ve been injured on roads like the Mancunian Way or closer to home, you could be entitled to claim for your losses.
Claims may cover physical injuries, lost earnings, damage to your motorcycle, and treatment costs at facilities like Manchester Royal Infirmary.
When you bring a motorcycle accident claim through Personal Injury Solicitors Manchester, you’ll benefit from:
Free legal advice about your rights and eligibility
Step-by-step support gathering evidence such as witness statements, photographs, or police reports

What Types of Accidents Lead To Motorcycle Accident Claims?
Motorcycle accident claims arise from incidents where another party’s negligence causes you injury or damage. You could be entitled to compensation after:
Dooring accidents (when a motorcyclist collides with a suddenly opened car door)
Collisions with motor vehicles at junctions or roundabouts
Accidents caused by vehicles failing to give way
Crashes due to slippery or poorly maintained road surfaces
Accidents involving public transport vehicles
Falls caused by unexpected obstacles or debris on cycle routes
Incidents involving pedestrians unexpectedly stepping into the road
Effectively, you could be compensated if you’ve suffered following any type of Manchester motorcycle accident so long as it was caused by another road user’s negligence.
Common Injuries Claimed For
Some of the most common injuries sustained in motorcycle accidents include:
Head injuries (including traumatic brain injuries and concussions)
Road rash (skin abrasions from sliding on pavement)
Fractures and broken bones (arms, legs, ribs, collarbone)
Spinal cord injuries
Internal injuries (damage to organs, internal bleeding)
Facial injuries (broken jaw, dental injuries, lacerations)
Sprains and dislocations
Soft tissue injuries (bruises, strains, ligament damage)
Don’t worry if we’ve not listed your injuries here. We can still offer a free consultation and one of our solicitors could still take on your claim. Please call today for more information.
Do I Meet The Eligibility Criteria For A Motorcycle Accident Claim?
You could claim compensation for a motorcycle accident if your injury happened because another party was at fault. Typically, eligible motorcycle accident claims arise when another road user, a defective road surface, or a fault with your bike directly caused the incident. Claims often involve routes like the A56 or areas close to Manchester Royal Infirmary.
You’ll meet key criteria for a motorcycle accident claim if:
Another person, such as a driver or local authority, who owed you a duty of care acted negligently—for example, failing to check blind spots or maintain safe road conditions.
Your accident was a direct consequence of that negligence; and
Your injury or injuries resulted directly from the motorcycle accident.
Our solicitors will assess your circumstances without cost, explain if you’re eligible to claim, and advise which evidence you’ll need. You’ll receive guidance on medical reports, support gathering witness statements, and updates at every stage.

Evidence Required To Prove Your Case
Gathering strong evidence is essential to support motorcycle accident claims, especially when dealing with complex incidents near Manchester roads like Princess Parkway or outside venues such as the Etihad Stadium. To show that another party caused your injuries, you’ll need to present proof that links the accident to your losses.
You’ll usually need the following:
Medical reports: Copies of your medical records, X-rays and scan results can all help to prove the extent of your suffering.
Accident scene photos: Clear images of the junction, signage, damage, or road conditions help establish fault.
Witness statements: Statements from passengers, bystanders, or other road users can strengthen your version of events.
CCTV or dashcam footage: Video from city cameras or personal devices helps show how the accident unfolded.
Repair and vehicle damage reports: Professional assessments prove the level of motorcycle and vehicle damage.
If you work with us, your solicitor will usually agree to gather evidence on your behalf as part of their service. Therefore, please feel free to call and discuss your case even if you don’t yet have all of the evidence listed here.
Time Limits for Motorcycle Accident Compensation Claims
In general, the time limit for motorcycle accident claims is 3 years from the date of the accident. One exception to this rule is where the injured party lacks mental capacity. In this instance, there is no time limit (unless capacity is regained) and somebody else can represent the injured party during the claims process.
If you would like to check if you still have time to claim for your injuries following a Manchester motorcycle accident, please call today.
What Compensation Covers
Motorcycle accident compensation covers your direct financial and personal losses after an accident that’s not your fault. As such, you could be entitled to claim for several categories of losses:
Medical Expenses: Includes ambulance fees, hospital treatment, surgery, physiotherapy, consultations, medication, and private care.
Loss of Earnings: Compensates lost salary or wages if your injuries prevent you from working, whether you’re employed or self-employed.
Damage to Your Motorcycle and Gear: Covers the repair, replacement, or depreciation of your bike, helmet, clothing, and protective equipment.
Care Costs: Pays for support with daily activities or household tasks if required by injury severity.
Travel Expenses: Compensates for travel to medical appointments, rehabilitation facilities, or legal meetings.
General Damages: Provides for pain, suffering, and loss of amenity, using medical evidence to establish how injuries – such as fractures, head injuries, or serious soft tissue injuries – have affected you.
