Well if you get another of the same ; you have the benefit of knowing all the shortcuts and dodges, the easy way to do things and how they should run and also the spares/repair situation.
On the other side of the coin; you WILL compare your new acquisition with your original and usually be disappointed.
(especially as you state it was fully sorted)

I would imagine that an insurance company would consider that bike to be a total loss if it has sustained even minimal damage. The fact that many panels are no longer obtainable would quickly bring them to that conclusion.
However the damage itself may be minimal by other's standards,
Do you have the option of buy back?
If so; it may be prudent to view the remains before you decide.
