Ok, so last night I got royally pissed off, like to the point that I almost killed someone. Some stupid ass Sergeant Major that is on Fort Bliss decided to hurt my baby! Can you believe it! Freaking idiot!

Story:

I'm in McDonald's on Dyer and Fred Wilson and the bike is parked at like a 45degree angle across the parking spot right outside the door. All the other patrons of McDonald's saw the bike and were asking me questions or commenting on it. This idiot, driving a Ford Expedition Sport Trak with the license of "The Rock" sat here and started to back out of the spot that he was parked in. He then proceeded to knock my bike over, then continued to pull out of the spot as though nothing happened. So needless to say, the NYer came out and I flipped. Long story short, over $2000.00 worth of damanged parts on the bike.

What an ass.. I would of also freaked but instead of killing a mofo, I think I'd be killing myself for being stationed at Ft. Bliss. Ugh! at El Paso (aka El Pisshole) unfortunately I grew up in that rotten stink hole. After graduation I never looked back. I hope that turd is going to pay for your bike repairs...

OOOOUUUUUCCCCCHHHHH! Good thing you got his license plate. You should have chased him down and whooped his azzzzzz. I'll probably flip out to the 10th power if that happened to me bike. SGM or not!

Yeah, I yelled at him as he continued to pull out. I almost ripped him out of his little truck through the window. I called the cops cause he was being a smart a$$ the entire time. So when the cops came, they said the he has to go down to the precinct on Monday and if he doesn't show up, he'll have a felony warrant issued for him for "Hit and Run".

I called his insurance, they said they wanted me to fax them 2 or 3 estimates to get it fixed (he's got USAA and they don't deal with bike wrecks that much). So I already got an estimate on parts, to replace everything with new shiot, $2100.00. That doesn't include labor. I am getting it checked out tomorrow and Tuesday for real estimates on EVERYTHING since I believe he ended up bending the frame where the right rearset is mounted and possibly the swingarm. I know he dislodged the headers off the engine though cause exhaust is coming out through the holes in the front portion of the fairings.

I hope it's "totalled" according to the insurance. That'll give me the money to get the 1000 that I want! Then scrap out the R6 or save it and track it!

Anyways, I've taken pictures. I'm going to put them up tomorrow. It doesn't look that bad on the pictures, it's worse in person.

But once an insurance company total a bike, and give you the money......do they let you keep the bike?
nope! you can buy the bike back, but a dealer gets it or it goes to an auction most of the time.

Its called retaining salvage. Most if not all states, the insurance companies are required to give the owner first chance. Usually 10 to 15% of current blue book. You will have to ask for it for they make more money from the auctions.

well, if it's bent and they total it, I'm going to see about getting it back. I'll turn it into a track bike or stunter. Then go out and grab the new 1000 that I want. I am hoping the frame is bent but also hoping it isn't.

I guess I'll find out today and tomorrow though. I got an estimate just in parts at $2100.00, so I figure makin' it like $3000-3500 after labor.
