This depends. Was the motorcycle a replacement vehicle? As an all Vehicle v. Motorcycle accidents, it is important that you get help right away. I would recommend contacting a personal injury attorney right away for a free consultation. They can help you also try and get the vehicle covered for the accident under insurance to protect a future bodily injury claim for pain and suffering.

One exception to the general rule is if the driver who hit you was convicted of violating specifically Vehicle Code �23152 or �23153 (driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol).
Did you purchase a temporary insurance from the dealership? If so, you'll be okay. Also, if this was a replacement bike, then you're okay if there was collision coverage. Feel free to call my office (888)9ENFORCER - (888)936-3672 or any other personal injury lawyer and ask for a free consultation.
