Glad you are OK. Bikes are easy to replace. Skin isn't.

And now more people know about how wonderfull AAA motorcycle coverage is. They HATE motorcycles. They push legislation against them at every chance. I won't give them a dime. And they won't help us.

On the bright side... This happened just on time for the mysterious new 09 model.

is it really totaled? No chance on resurrecting that silver baby?

Frank, I wouldn't hold my breath for the 09

As for the bike the guy at the shop think it a total, But that have to be decided by the insurance adjuster. I should hear from them by the end of the week. I am in the process of getting another VFR

Will keep you all posted.

Glad you are okay, bro.

Brian, I am not sure if I can make it to Vegas with you, I am in the process of getting a new bike. I just make an offer for an 06 Black VFR ($6300) waiting for the seller to response. I also look at an 03 Silver last night only 1500 miles the bike is spotless. I like it but the fact is 03 and he want it $6999. The blue book is only $5800. Hopefully I will get an answer for the 06 Black some time today. If evrything go well I should have a new bike by next week.
