Was just thinking about this today.

I am insured again on my GSXR as it was fixed up...

What if I then had another smash or it got nicked and I were to make a claim?

would I be paid out for the bike a second time its market value as a CAT C?

would HPI show as 2 CAT write offs?

Just curious as to what the insurance company would do Confused

Market value, which as well all know, is less for a written off bike because we all know that it is.

One of my bikes has been written off twice, paid out the same both times and still riding it Thumbs Up

Just a few scratches to certain parts can write it off easily.
