Hi, what about Seremban and Alor Setar? Any recommendations for bike-friendly and safe hotels in Seremban or Port Dickson and Alor Setar? Going to Phuket in a group of 5 bikes and want to have two stops in Malaysia for more relaxed ride.

He got out of hospital by this time already. The accident was on 26 Dec, if I remember correctly, and the police called him only last week.

Updates so far: My friend got a call from TP and went to their office to submit accident report. I am just reporting here what he told me, but basically a police officer investigating his accident asked him questions about what happened and compiled the accident report. Although my friend mentioned to her that he was drinking, she did not put that into the report. My name was also never mentioned there. My friend, who read and signed the report, says the report only contains the fact that he was riging without 2A license and proper insurance coverage and that the shop that sold him the bike made him aware he could not ride it. The officer told my friend that the police will take at least two months to investigate the case, and during this time he can still ride his 2B bike! Which is pretty amazing, considering what happened.

Yes, I think he has to pay for the repairs, although that one is not much because, as he says, he only touched the car on the side (it was a cab). I wonder how much he is going to pay in fines in addition to that - probably much more than for the repairs.

Sorry, what is laying up a bike? Never heard of that before.. Perhaps because I've never tried buying a bike before getting a license

Thanks for your replies! Yah, I didn't know he decided to ride the bike. So if TP asks me, I'll just tell them as it is. I'll let you know the results.

Hi guys, OK, here is the situation. I got a friend who has 2B license and 2B bike. Few days ago he found a good 2A bike and because his 2A TP test is very soon, he decided to buy the bike. He got himself no-riding insurance and put me as a subrider, then transferred the ownership of the bike to himself. I took the bike from the shop, brought it to his place and left him the keys (because it's legally his bike anyway). He drank a lot one night, rode the bike and got into accident. Got into hospital etc, although no serious injuries. I know he's basically screwed (riding without proper insurance, without license and under influence), but what about me? Am I in any way legally responsible? Thanks!
