All the three are criminally liable in different sections of law. The liability to compensation shall be upon the registered owner if there is no insurance covery of the bike. Moreover liability to pay may shift partially depending upon the handling and conducting of the case.

The claim will be on the person in whose name the Registration certificate is registered. So don't worry the claim will lie upon the person who sold the bike to you. Still refer the sale agreement , if any , registered or signed in favour of you. Please contact me if you require any further assistance.
