Dang, your bars were really bent A lot worse than mine after my accident.
Nothing like an accident to force the mods. Keep us posted on how it turns out.

Then with less than $100 in damage they called it a total loss and paid me $1700 (for a bike I paid $800 for 2 years back). If I keep the bike I give up 10%. I belive the GS still has money left in its account...You need to be paid all the $$$$ as per the dealer...and for time you lost use of it cos they were dragging their ass.

dunno if this would be a total loss...that's an '01 GS I think he's got...probably upwards of $2700-$2800.  However if ins. would pay $500-$600?  Maybe worth a go for the damages caused...fork out $200 to fix yourself, then pocket the rest...
