dealerships are far more likely to total it they dont want the liability.

Glad you are going to be alright, it does not matter what you have on your bike as far as lights go. These maniacs in these cars just don't care. I spent $1,000 on LED headlights, lamps and bright *** lights on the rear. Fruitcake loooked right at me yesterday and just puuled out anyway. Thanks ABS.

People suck, glad you made it threw. If the doctors havent already done so, get your back checked out cause its a mother sum itch later on if not fixed.

Exactly. A cat scan wont show it.

Cager was cited for speeding.
I guess they don't total newer bikes very easily.
Needs whole rear end,seat, fairing (inside and out) crash bar,header and muff. Frame to be determined.
So bike down for at least 2 months and I'm PO'd.
Have pics and will try to get them up somewhere.
god bless you all and please b careful

glad you're ok - that's the most frightening thing that's happened to me on the scoot, as well.
Hope you heal quickly and are riding very soon -

Same thing happened to me on may 9, take your time to settle with the Inc co. I would talk to a laywer to cover all the base's, and dont sign over your medical record's to them. THEY WILL USE THEM AGAINST YOU!
