can you get an independant valuation o your bike? get one and send to insurance company. all insurers tend to be pricks by offering a small sum initially, be patient if you can and demand more, surely a new helmet will also be required, so charge them for that. if the other guy is in the wrong then it shouldn't be too hard to get arround what you want (less about 10%ish). this is just from what i've learnt over the years, but good luck with it all, and remember that if it's any consolation, you're still alive!

you really have to hound them about the getting the new statement sent out, i had expensive sound gear in my car, never got stolen but it took about 3 months to get a new statment to say my gear was covered.
