Yoshi makes case savers. Not sure if they are available for your bike but I'd check them out.

I'm always surprised to see how much IS NOT available for my bike as it's the old ZX6R

I wouldn't even claim it. You have however many more months of not riding it in Korea, save your money up nd possibly buy the same or better shit.

my deductible is $500... Case cover is gonna about that it self I think.... front fairing is slightly damaged... need a new frame slider..my fairings are already fucked from the tip over with my flat tire, and a gas can rubbing it when I hauled it down from AK. then there's my helmet, jacket, pants, boots, and gloves... all are covered...

If you think it is enough to total it. Definitely turn it in. You will get more for your bike than if you sell it and then you can buy that new one you want.

cover for my honda I have found for $60, they aren't that expensive. The woodcrafts are like $200 retail and thats the replaceable slider ones.

well I'm gonna have them replace all the plastics... that'll be over 1000.... the case cover 200 for a stock one (guessing)... so not enough to total it... the rest is gear... $500 helmet... $200 jacket, $120 pants, $200 gloves, and $180 boots...

funny thing is... I wasn't worried about my gear as it all held up great... didn't even hit my head... but the insurance lady said if I'm already over the 500... claim all my gear.

I don't know that I would claim any of it. I'd buy a case cover and some frame sliders and call it good. But that's me.

NCR makes hardened case covers, you know like the one you were eyeing on my bike...Mines CFM. Those damn magnesium ones bust too easy and I have always replaced them first thing if I thought the bike was going to the track.

Funny story though, saw a kid on a YZF600R loop out a wheelie one day and he came down so hard on his case it knocked the crankshaft out of its bearings...Totalled the bike.

Fortunately yours doesn't look that bad!

I would laugh my ass off if I saw that. I ride a yzf600r too and you have to really try to get the wheel up in the first place. Very hard to accidentally loop it unless doing wheelies.

Yeah doesn't look like they are available. But this is what they look like for my bike.
