A few insurance technicalities have come to light, so putting it back on the road perhaps won't be quite as simple as I'd been led to believe. The repair is simple enough, but may need to be done by a qualified mechanic with various inspections required. But all not lost yet. SteveT - yes I did mention it in a previous post about wearing good footwear. Not a scooter. Never had one since my LD150 died in about 1968. I've now seen the boots you suggested and plan to invest in a pair. MarkM - I shall be reasonably paranoid about front forks now. I put a good few kms on a previous Indian 350 Classic without problem and I hadn't seen that weakness reported here before. So just mildly paranoid. Scalyback - not quite Sevenoaks, but near Shoreham so close enough. Having motorcycled mainly in East Anglia up to this year, my feeling is that drivers in Kent are mainly unspeakable. But I knew that from years of driving and cycling here. And thanks all for good wishes.
