Just because I broke my thumb taking mt rear drive off doesn't make it so all the time!
Hang in there and take plenty of painkillers
YB in IN said:I'll definitely be taking y'alls advice for treatment later tonight after I get back from my opera run through. Oh, and I don't have a sword in this one, but I do get to carry around a spear.
BE in IN said:After seeing the pictures of the damage and talking to you on the phone. No big deal. I can make new running light mounts and incorporate the training wheels suggestion your Grandpa made. Your uncle suggests sparkly tassles and a bulb horn also. Let me know when you want to get together again.

Fair warning!! you will have to navigate gravel to get to the Solstace ride, so be careful ok?
YB in IN said:My mom told me that I'm not allowed to ride in the rain anymore, because every time that I've bit the dust it's been when it's rainy.
username said:if your mom doesn't want you to ride in rain, then she is going need to belly up to the bar and buy you a nice shiny harley.

I'm glad you're ok! BTDT.
FWIW,
IF you do decide to get your insurance company involved, don't be surprised to see a very large repair bill - especially if you dented the tank. I had a similar 11 mph spill a couple years ago that resulted in over $3k in damage to my K75s. Rather than repair the old bike, I took the cash, sold the bike as is (it wasn't totalled), walked away with more than I'd paid for the bike 80k miles previous, and invested in my current bike.
If you keep the insurance company out of it and handle the repairs yourself, but let someone else do the painting, you're probably looking at a couple hundred plus the cost of painting. BTDT.
good luck.
YB in IN said:Surprisingly enough I didn't dent the tank. I was pretty happy about that. I'm proabably just going to fix it on my own as it basically cosmetic. I'm sort of flirting with the idea though of getting insurance involved so that I can get my helmet replaced. I have to call my agent and check if I have equipment covered or not, and what they would pay towards a new helmet.
