Crashed...
 
Crashed the RR :eek: . Sunday after work the *** end went out and she went down to end up smoking a curb. Nothing happened to me...I’ve learned by now how to crash haha. I was kinda hesitant in turning it into the insurance company but it looked like it might be a lot.

I called Progressive (which was one of the best experiences I’ve had) last night at school. They adjuster called me this morning and was able to come out today at 1:00. We BSd and he did his thing. It took him 2 hours to figure out the estimate. To my surprise it totaled! Took less than 24 hours for them to do the whole thing. Im very happy with their service. I just gotta get the rest of my money from the gap insurance.

With the damage done to it, I really wouldn’t have thought it would have been totaled. I’m pretty pumped about it though. Now its new bike/car shopping time :)

Here's some pics...

Bernotas05 04-21-2007 07:28 AM

Yea that sucks dude, Doesnt look like that much damage to total it, but yea id get the cobalt.

subliminal1284 04-21-2007 09:56 AM

Yeah that looks like a pretty easy fix. Stupid insurance companies

TorqueDog 04-21-2007 10:32 AM

Sheeeitty deals, Brian. :\

Get an R1, join the Yamaha family. :D

SOMBirdV6 04-21-2007 11:21 AM

The damage doesnt look that bad for it to be totaled...interesting. I almost bought that SAME bike last year around christmas It looks amazing.


Good luck on the car/bike shopping you get to do :)

Bernotas05 04-21-2007 01:20 PM

HaHa

96camaro 04-21-2007 02:28 PM

That sucks man, I really liked the look of that bike. Is the only damage to it the scratched paint? That's weird that they wrote it off if that's it.

CHINGON 04-21-2007 02:58 PM

Now get a KAWASAKI NINJA ZX-14 :cool:

haha na. if i get another bike of choice, id get the same one. i loved the rr! was a blast to ride and fit my loose riding style perfect

niceroc 04-21-2007 04:29 PM

can u buy back the bike fromt he insurence company?

Mike Jones 04-21-2007 04:56 PM

I can't believe he totaled it glad he did. If I ever end up in a wreck I'm not one that wants the car to be fixed. I'd rather it be totaled and start over again.

98CamaroZ28 04-21-2007 05:21 PM

salvage everything from the car and ect...yea!

mxracerbrian 04-22-2007 12:31 AM

i was hoping he would kinda. now im loan free and get to go shopping lol

blue89vert 04-22-2007 01:13 AM

haha dude if you can get the bike back ill paint it for ya. that doesn't look totalled at all IMO. i really like that bike and if you do to you should get another one. you seem pretty happy about this accident...lol

korndogg 04-22-2007 01:38 AM

ill say it again....I want that bike lol

mxracerbrian 04-22-2007 02:32 AM

haha ill see what the price will be to buy it back. its for sure an option. im just happy because i kinda want a car lol. hopefully the buy back price will be low

TorqueDog 04-22-2007 03:32 PM

This time, get some damn frame sliders.

mxracerbrian 04-22-2007 09:39 PM

frame sliders always help....but they dont stop curbs lol

TorqueDog 04-23-2007 01:05 AM

Touché.

paarman97maro 04-23-2007 02:33 AM

Yeah... I dont really get why you want a car so bad when youre like wet over bikes since last year, but whatever melts your butter.

2000v6cam 04-23-2007 02:41 AM

dude that sucks and im suprised its totaled because it doesnt look that bad from the pics, but yea if u get another bike id get another rr if i were u or maybe get an older rr and a cheap car, but i finally installed my frame sliders today but like u said they dont stop curbs lol, but good luck finding new stuff its always fun to go shopping for stuff like that and u could always get the 07 rr those are bad *** bikes

paarman97maro 04-23-2007 02:59 AM

I dont know why Brian didnt explain, but you cant see in the pics... its scratched as hell, also cracked in some places. There were random metal pieces broken off, as well as a handle on the right side, so the whole fixiture was ******. It was also leaking a fluid... gas I think it was. The pictures dont look nearly as bad as it is. I kinda witnessed it, so I saw the bike afterward... it was ******. I had an idea it would probably be totaled from all the **** that was broken, and the bodywork that would have to be done.

I actually just found one of the random metal pieces the other day haha.

2000v6cam 04-23-2007 03:12 AM

o ok that kinda makes sense then cause the pics just look like it lowsided or something and slid a little ways

mxracerbrian 04-23-2007 07:10 AM

yeah i caried home some parts with me. its a lil messed up.

paar i really dont know what im going to do....im not sure if i can afford a bike anymore cause my damn inurance will probably go pretty damn high. 160 /month was already a lot (or i guess i dont know if its worth it to pay 200 /month for just insurance)...idk

and im just trying to be positive about a ****** deal :(

98CamaroZ28 04-23-2007 12:55 PM

Looks like you can get your cobalt SS...hells yea!

Bernotas05 04-23-2007 01:51 PM

Yea I'd opt for a car, then sell the saturn and buy a decent used bike and your set.

98CamaroZ28 04-23-2007 06:26 PM

sell the SATURD and get a Camaro, its about time you need to get one... :nana:
