Can the category be contested if the bike can be checked by an approved inspector and found roadworthy ?.

my understanding is that a write off bike cannot be inspected and given its "certificate" back (clean bill of health type of thing) as it can be with cars as there are no companies doing this sort of work on bikes, - something to do with high risk if they get it wrong, lots of skilled work and little return for the risk or work. This was a couple of years ago when I heard this from a dealer and mot station.
Many bikes get written off due to cosmetic damage only and the high cost of replacement parts, - so there are some bargains out there if you find them as they will always carry this negative report on their registration number.
