After I took all my stuff off:
Today as it left :cry:
Went for a ride with my 7 year old daughter two sundays ago, and on our way home, some 17 year old kid pulled out in front of us. I braked hard to avoid him, but there was only about 2-3 carlengths and we were going 30 mph... Bike went down on the RH side, as you see and slammed into the front RH corner of his truck. Luckily,my daughter had only a small scrape on her knee, and NOTHING else.... My right leg took a big hit, and is still swollen, ten days later.
The adjuster quit adding up damaged parts when he hit 9k :eek3: Needless to say, it was totalled.
I managed to get almost all the aftermarket stuff off of it, since the lovely state I live in (IL) will not allow me to buy it back. I have Progressive, and my policy included 3k in aftermarket parts and accesories. My adjuster gave me "average retail", which pissed me off, since avg was 30k miles, mine was 15k. And immaculate. He understood and agreed, but said his hands were tied on that, but would make sure I got all 3k of the parts and accessories. He went above and beyond to make sure that happened.
Now to find me a GEN II
BTW, I will NEVER ride again without ALL my gear. If I had my boots on, I would not have a single scratch on me..... I shudder when I think about the times I took her for a ride and did not have my helmet on since "I am with my daughter, we will just putt-putt"
Here is why:
WARNING: BRUISED LEG PICS, BUT NOTHING GORY
