Default Write Offs

Having participated in this on visordown, I was wondering how the folks of the org fare in comparison. I suspect that aside from a few of us, that most are probably lucky to have nil points.

Ok, here we go, award yourself points per write off category for bikes you've had written off:

Cat A - 10 points
Cat B - 7 points
Cat C - 3 points
Cat D - 1 point

I've made the points quite apart because someone with a few scratches and therefore Cat Ds shouldnt compare to a completely anihilated bike that constitutes a Cat A. Bonus point if you achieve write offs on the same bike.

Ok Im standing on 13 points with a Cat A and a Cat C.

Btw, points don't mean prizes in this case other than appreciating perhaps the higher the points the nicer it is to be here and posting.

Bit of a derail here, but how did your SV end up as cat A not B lyn? It wasn't completely destroyed (ie, fire) so I thought things like engine (I assume yours was ok) could have been salvaged?

Add another bonus point

Thinking about it maybe we can average it over years riding. Ill think on how to do that

Erm no, insurers confirmed thursday its a total loss and Cat A. Nothing salvageable on it apparently other than rear end and that was questionable. Basically its so damaged they cant guarantee any parts salvaged off of it

13 points in 11 months

Do you get extra for clocking them up in a short space of time

30 points in one day.... got 3 bikes back from the gulf, and on in-inspection there was too much work to deem them a cost effective repair.
