This is a CAT N write off, fully restored. Cat N is ‘non structural damage’. The bike was in an accident and came off better than me in 2020. It was written off due to the fact BMW could not repair for 3 months (COVID related) and the cost of the hire bike was prohibitive. In addition, there was quite a bit of fairing damage which, in these circumstances, BMW send a new blank fairing over to be painted (costly again!). Fortunately I have a friend who professionally repairs bodywork. That, and the cost of engine casings, helped me put the bike on the road. That said, these are still a few cosmetic scratches on the bike (see pictures for details). I will send the HPI check I have carried out and also engineer photos post crash to anyone coming to view the bike. I have all the repair paperwork too. I have ridden the bike regularly with no issues post off. Engine crash bars added, it has a recent MoT and full service history. This is the Sports SE version with keyless start and all the then frills. In addition I have fitted a mudsling and aventail. Also has an akrapovic slip on exhaust, which sounds boss.
