I`m presently waiting to see what sort of pay out fiqure they will dream up -


The positive side of this, Patrick, is that you can possibly use the advertised prices on auto-trader to negotiate the best possible settlement. (As long as they help your position).

From memory, my eventual agreed value was £5500 against a first offer of £4500! This was based on the research I did at the time and being able to demonstrate that prices had gone up significantly more than both the original buying price (which had been a no longer available deal) and the 'Glass's Guide' pricings for 6 month old bike.

I actually found the insurance company very realistic and sensible to deal with. As in any negotiation, knowledge is power, so do your research and have references to hand to substantiate your position. (sorry if I am teaching grannie to suck eggs). I am sure people closer to current market, and insurance situation will be able to help more, but I hope this is of some help.

Best of luck and remember there is always a positive side - you get a chance to buy another bike with a cheque in your hand and a strong buying position.

It's gone very quiet here, is it time for an update on who's going, when, which way?

I plan to ignore the motorway system and travel from Sunny Blackpool (I plan to bring the sunshine with me) via A6, A7 and eventually A9

It takes a bit longer but mileagewise is not much different.

There was virtually no interest in T shirts, so I won't bother with them.

Looking forward to seeing everyone again, and sampling some vastly overpriced highland beer

Sounds good to me Colin - I'll stick with you if you are bringing the sunshine haha. Where/when is best place to meet up - on A6?

I have suggested to Alan Mc (he's marshalling BSB at Cadwell today lucky b....er) that we could meet probably early afternoon - he is coming from Edinburgh direction. Any ideas for meet up location?

Do we have a current list of attendees?

I was a bit shocked to see pictures of Hutch's service last weekend, I thought you's taught him better than that biggrin.gif

Not seen JHT, were going to meet up on Monday but he had a hangover laugh.gif Not sure what his plan is yet.

Are you heading further north on the Sunday or the Monday? I assume msot people are staying in Aviemore Sunday night and heading off Monday? Not sure if I should book Tuesday off or just spend all day monday on the motorway.

Unfortunately JHT can't make this trip either, so my bunk is still going free. PM me if you're interested, I'm booked in for the Friday & Saturday night at the YHA. Or is it the YMCA? unsure.gif
