Thanks for all the feedback guys, some of you will have seen the ST2 sitting forlornly on a trailer next to some sort of Krapersaki at Popham. Apparently a "class B" write off due to possible frame damage. Had a good look and wasn't convinced, admitedly I didn't have a frame jig to check it but common sense said there had been nowhere near enough impact to disturb an ST2 frame !!!. Bike was ridden into the back of a pick up or so he reckons, headlight and general cosmetic damage around that area but no grief to the front wheel so the impact was taken straight on and high up.
Would have made a great bike for my girlfriend with a few bits scrounged together to fix it up but due to the ridiculous system operated in this country it's effectively scrap !!!. Guess we could hunt round for another frame, maybe some Monsters are the same ? but what a waste of a great potential refurb project.
Easy to see why our insurance quotes are so gobsmackingly high isn't it.
