If the forks are gone then the yokes and wheel will be suspect so probably 800 - 1000.

the forks are bent but only very slightly you can hardly notice.

I don't think anyone would be very happy "only very slightly" ****ed

As I've said before you would really be best to repair and sell for 2 reasons

1. It's not registered a write off yet
2. The condition of the rest of it

Would you make more from stripping it and selling the bits or selling it as a Cat C or D repaired?

Both come with hassle, either taking it apart and listing all the bits somewhere or having to shell out more dough and then rebuild it yourself!

Looking at other bikes on the internet I reckon that £1250 might be your figure.

I HAVE JUST BEEN GIVEN A CHECK FOR £2600 BY A THIRD PARTIES INSURANCE, THEY SAID MY SV650 S, K6 WITH 1075 MILES ON AND UNDER THREE MONTHS OLD, WAS UNECONOMICAL TO REPAIR. THE LET ME KEEP THE BIKE.....THEY VALUED IT AT £695!... IT IS NOW BEING TURNED INTO A STREETFIGHTER

NO MAJOR DAMAGE, JUST A SLIGHTLY BENT REAR SUBFRAME. WHERE THE TRANSIT HIT THE REAR PILLION FOOTREST. A SMALL CRACK ON THE FRONT FAIRING AND A FEW SCRATCHES AS WELL AS NO FOOTPEGS OR FRONT BRAKE LEVER.

Insurance companies issue a cheque after they check and approve your claim.

Insurers value Cart D write offs at roughly 40% of value, so my SK3 in okish condition was valued at £2,500 and I had to pay £1,000 to buy it back, salvage would have been charged a wee bit more (43% me thinks). So if your forks are gone (sounds like it) and all the fairing then I'd be very surprised if you got over £1,000, probaby looking at around £800. If you want more then fix it yourself or sell for parts IMHO.

With the risk of forks wheel etc etc and rare bits needing replacement i guess it could be worth between £1000 - £1200
hope that helps

I was gonna say this value aswell, provided everything else is ok
