those plastics round the headlight may be pricey and hope your forks are in a good way...if not there's always a silver lining in the shape of a fork upgrade.
Yea i cant see any front cowls on the bay yet and my thoughts exactly, ill be keeping the bike longer now methinks, the forks seem ok, one of the mechanice had a quick look and thinks they are slightly out but we'll see

Shame you got to pay for it though. All my kit might be paid for by civil claim

That's bloody confusing, I thought holdup was talking to himself!

Bad luck there fellah, hope you can get it sorted without too much cost.

IIRC car insurance is not affected my bike insurance if they are with different people

Ask him if he wants to practise on mine

My car insurance went awful after a bike claim however I've since found insurers who don't rate agains tbike claims so it might not be as bad as you think. Despite having a claim on my record my bike premium still went down due to the further years (bad ) experience I'd gained.
Then again you have fully comp on a k3? I'm thinking repairs are going to be less than your under 21s excess!
