Default need advice selling my cat. c

Hello everyone, hope you are all well in the new year.
I'm currently struggling to get myself together after an accident I've had. Unfortunatelly my 55 reg SV650 is now pronouced to be a category C and the insurer left it with me, hence my question : how much is it worth?

what needs repairs:
front fork
front wheel spindle
front mudguard
bottom steering yoke
fairing lowers
upper fairing mounting frame
readr bodywork
gearleaver
footrests and hangers
rear swing arm
and the battery went flat cause of the recent bad weather



any suggestions on how to and for how much to sell it?

Probably better of breaking it and selling the good bits individually.

EBay or Autotrader is going to your biggest audience, apart from here of course.
