... bike in cash in my hand and if you crash it you've bought it :) I find it a bit odd that he keeps pestering you when you have already said no. Buy him a CBT I;m sure ut would be cheaper than trashing yours !!

... only let a biker that I knew really well, and had ridden with, ride my bike. I doubt you have an "all rider" policy so if you did let him ride the bike he would be doing so uninsured. You can only foresee that ending in a very expensive and ugly mess.

... that he hasn't got a valid uk licence for bikes on top of not being insured then im pretty sure I can make a case that HR would kill me if I let him out on it. If he has the licence though then a dealer test will be a far more fullfilling ride anyway.

Fwiw I think we all know it will probably end in tears mate.

You will end up with a damaged bike, an injured colleague, probably someone's damaged car & undoutably the blame for all of it.

How to tell him no, so that he "gets it" is going to be a challenge though IMHO.

There is a new lad on my team at work, he says he used to ride a 250 back in India but that was 6 years ago. He keeps bugging me to let him take the CBR600rr round the car park. I've said no as he isn't insured (although in a private car park you technically don't need to be do you?) and it's ...

I'll have to look him up?! Though I don't think I'd be in a grey to test it out lol

It was a handshake deal.

He would have got away with it but somebody pointed the finger at him.

I did it for a friend once on his mountain bike. It pushed somebody else's maximum bid up.
Then he asked me to do it again (getting greedy).

I won it.

Next day he told me I had to pay him. I gave him a dead leg and we called it quits!
