That's really good news!

(Obviously I'm not pleased for you it's just that it'll save us from you constantly moaning about its condition :D )

I scored very low on the autie test. I’m cheerful, happy, confident, like meeting new people, chatty and largely sociable. What the fuck am I doing on this forum?

That's fantastic news mate. Well done on getting the bitch home in a relatively unscathed condition. 1500 or so miles is a long time and the numerous transport companies involved mean it has done rather well.

Dealer sends a quote for repairs to the insurance and they argue the price.

They can't do the estimate till the end of next week at the earliest, they are understandably rather behind on work after the showroom flooded last week.

Tbh it's too late in the year for me to bother to rush them, all I'll do is get her home. Wash her properly, cover her in acf-50 anti corrosion spray and leave her till spring. I've got other, already tatty, bikes to ride all winter.
