It looks bad because I unscrewed the farings and nose cone to look at the frame, head shocks etc. Can't see any sign of structural damage anywhere. The clocks and switchgear all work.

The lhs mushroom slider snapped off causing the scrapes on the fairing.

It was a lowside. A car in front had no brake lights, he hit the verge then he hit the anchors. I braked hard but as I was coming to a stop the front wheel hit the gravel the car knocked onto the road and the front end went. The bike never hit the car. Just a slide along the road

As for a report - there is no report. The insurance company said their engineer only looked at it.

There were a couple of mechanics at the yard today who looked at it with me and they were completely puzzled why it was cat b. They agreed it would not even be cat c if it were body work alone.

I can't understand why an insurance company would do this.
