Cat As????

Hmmm should probably have put what the categories mean earlier doh!

Not cost effective write offs are usually Cat C or D. Cat D is usually uneconomic repair, Cat C is uneconomic but also some structural damage.

Cat B is cant go back on road, significant structural damage but has salvageable bits, Cat A is catastrophic damage ie too dangerous to go back on road, no salvageable bits ie it goes straight to be crushed.

http://www.motorcycle.co.uk/insurance_write_off.htm is a useful reference
