Default I have tell someone wooooohooooo, info on my written off bike

just had call from third parties insurance...

they valued my bike at £1970 (I Paid £1050 for it)

I can buy it back for..wait for it.....£100....WHAT THE!!! BRILLIANT, i have a set of dunlop roadsmarts that had done about 500 miles b4 the crash, so instant bargain there, viper end can with a slight scratch (so gonna stubby that as orignally planned.

im certainly not gonna argue about the valuation, i know its always said never accept the first offer, but im not greedy and already well up on what i bougt it for.

bang on xmas aswell niiiiiiiiiice.....

a very happy Dappa D

think im gonna break it to be honest as i want the tyres and exhaust.

apart from cosmetic (ns mirror and panels) all i could see was that the bit the gear lever is on...the bracket snapped so not alot to get it road worthy id imagine, but all the same im pretty sure im gonna break it as i REALLY want to get a TL100R

Same happened to a mate at work. His Pugeot 306 went up in flames and he got a ridiculos sum for it. No way it was worth that, but he's had some bad luck and strife recently, so good luck on him.

Same goes for you
