Default wife got rear ended by a cager

and before all the comments come out....no not that way.

She's sitting a 4 way stop sign waiting for a vehicle to clear the intersection when all of a sudden bang some idiot in cager drives into her. Worse yet they had both stopped and the cager tells her " sorry, I thought you were going to go"

anyway, wife is ok, fender on the bike is screwed. Is there anything else she should have the dealer look for in doing the estimate/repairs?

I hate it when they pre-empt the smart **** comments....lol

Sorry to hear bout that though. I almost got taken out by a car the other day at an intersection..he drove across my lane to make a turn...luckily I hadn't moved up yet from the car in front of me...he would have t-boned me. Good luck with the dealer and estimate ..hope things work out ok

The only reason I looked is for the smart A@@ comments!
Sorry about the bike. At least no one got hurt.

You know, you guys can say *** on here LOL.

Glad your wife is OK. I had a guy roll into me at a stop sign a long time ago. Broke my tail light but nothing else damaged. Freaked the guy out though. You can't cure stupid.
