Normally 75% of value is about as far as the insurance company goes, before totalling. Had a beautiful '96 F150 a neighbor hit, while drunk. Was to be repaired until they found the frame bent, then they totaled it. I pushed the company to give me almost two grand more than they wanted, because it was in perfect condition before being hit.
Being your policy, not sure how much you can push, but mine was paid for by my policy, as I had Uninsured Motorist Coverage, and I wasn't going to let my own company screw me.
Good luck, and push for a thorough exam of the frame/swingarm, that should surely total it, if bad.

The repair list is unreal:
frame
2 extended saddle bags w/ cvo speaker lids
gas tank
front fairing
inner fairing
Yaffe mini apes
2 lower fairings
speaker pods for lower fairings
Daymaker light
saddle bag supports
kick stand
both slip ons
engine crash bar
highway pegs
spoked front wheel
rear tire
front tire
rear fender
rear fender extension with the tri bar light
Like only the engine, transmission, and side panels made it. Surely this sucker is totaled. It's a 2013.

Wonder how old one has to be to even know what that was designed to do. My first car, a '55 Plymouth, could have used that. Cool, thinking out of the box. How is it attached to the jiffy stand?

Put smoke turn signal covers on front and blocked off the run line of the 1157a bulb. This way it only is on when turn signal is activated. State law in Illinois is 2 marker lights on the front, my fogs got this covered as I run with them always on as grabs attention. Didnt like the ORANGE of fender tip light and signals. Looks good and unique
