Hi chaps,
Not sure if this is the correct forum, but figured if anyone will know, workshop peeps will 
Does anyone know of anything required to get a cat d bike back on the road (other than the stated damage, of course)? And are there are downsides - resale value once I've fixed it up maybe?
I'm new to this, but I'm keen to get my hands dirty, and I've found a motor with cosmetic damage. I am, however, a bit concerned a to whether there could be unseen problems, which I have no experience of spotting 
Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Cat D: Vehicles of this category are vehicles which the retail repair costs were below the pre-accident value of the vehicle.
That's all a cat D is. Get it repaired, and MOTed. Should be ready to rock.
It'll affect the resale value slightly if it's been registered as a Cat D.

Cat D needs nothing - just fix & ride. And there's no VIC for a bike, only cars.
