Doesn't matter to me, I wont buy it back anyway, but come on $9700 worth of damage? I find it hard to believe. But oh well...... That is the insurance companies problem now and not mine.

Oh another good thing is that if I get another bike, they cover the replacement value, so I can get an 09 or left over 08 for free. Otherwise if I just cash out, it just a check for market value of my old bike.

DUDE. you get your bike back and 7300 bucks in your pocket and you're not considering that?

Jesus, you can buy track plastics and an exhaust and some wheels off the WERA boards for cheap, then buy a 2-3 year old 600SS for five grand for the street, and still have money for a track day or two left over. If you go with a replacement, you have a 2 year newer bike but so what? This is the perfect opportunity to expand your stable.

Epic win.

Well, if you really wanted one:
