They'll most likely make a low ball offer for your bike at which point you respond with proof of how much it'll cost to buy a bike the same as your now dead one.
As you'd only had it for six weeks that gives a good starting point for what your bike could be worth but don't count on anything until you've got the money in your bank account. |

Book price.
Depends which book, but when I was touting my GS as a trade in, I got offered bang on those amounts everywhere (except Victor Devine, obviously).
Do the mouse-work though: you want to demand dealer asking prices. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

According to his sig it was a 2015 bike.
What he paid for it six weeks ago is a very good starting point for what the bike is worth but it's not a definitive answer. |

Little update. So, I am still dealing direct with the old fellas insurance. They are actually being very helpful at the moment, although im not holding my breath that this will be the case the whole time, but I live in hope.
Anyway, They have provided me with a hire bike. I got a Honda NC750.
My word it is dull. Not a fun bike at all. Rides and sounds like a tractor. 6th gear may as well not be there, and I can only assume the brake pads are made of over cooked soggy vegetables.
Has a moped like storage compartment, which i s'pose is handy.
But still, Im back on two wheels. Still very sore to ride, but better than sat inside holding my nuts all day.
Pictures of the bike + some wonderfully average scenery in the background.

So, Positive update time. The cheque arrived today! Dealing with the 3rd party insurers was a breeze, and I still have the hire bike will Monday!
They first offered me £6400. Bare in mind I paid £6500 for the 15 plate bike and it had 10000 miles on. But since buying it, Yam put various prices up, so to get a like for like I showed them relevant adverts and they raised their offer to £7150, so I accepted.
Pretty chuffed with that. I have also found a 65 plate with 900 miles, Yamaha integrated heated grips and crash bars on for under £7000. Allowing me to buy some of the mods like, tail tide and huger extender.
Also, They sent a cheque for £280 for my helmet, and I found the one I wanted for £230, meaning I can transfer my x-lite Bx5 Intercom.
So apart from the ball ache of it all, (pun intended)It all worked out ok in the end! Thank you all for support and advice
