Fazer 8 clutch problems???

[Grandma]

Just found out the complete clutch housing and basket are damaged, with bits in the sump and quoting £1300 for repair, bike still under Yamaha warranty only covered 6,000 miles was due for service and clutch was to be complaint. Yamaha at this point refusing to repair under warranty, saying rider abuse! The rider is a mature experienced person who ran a 98 600 Bandit for years, which was lovingly cared for and during this time covered 1,000's of trouble free miles.
