Drunk idiots Some idiot thought it would be fun to tip my bike over on Main Street tonight. Tons of cosmetic damage and the exhaust has a huge dent from the curb. It was a pretty sick site to see her on her side. Cops were called and a report was filed so I will have to submit it to my insurance. What the hell is the world coming to??

some drunk f**ed up my first bike. he got on top of and dropped it and then picked it up again and dropped it on the other side. cops told me to sue him in small claims court and they couldn't do much in this matter. there is no payback or karma

My first bike got dropped byt a drunk guy as well. Except in fell into a steel pole CRUSHING the gas tank (1988 ninja 750) I almost never found a gas tank. But he paid for it!

Thanks guys. We don't know who did it so I am stuck with the $500 deductable. How anyone could do that to such a nice bike is beyond me. I did some really dumb stuff when I was younger but something like this never crossed my mind.

Did you find out if any security cameras were on at the time. They might have picked up the incident.

Hate hearing this. Too bad the drunk wasn't pinned under it....you'd get at least one free shot before you call the cops.
Good luck with your repairs.

Maybe try and take it to a shop where you know someone and they can jack up the price and it will cover your deductable. Hope it all works out man, that sucks!

No camera's on the outside unfortunately. We were at a pool hall, not a bar but there are about 15 bars within 1/4 mile of there. I see motorcycles parked in that area all the time so I did not think anything of it but the officer said this happens frequently.

It is an '07 and it is stock exhaust. I am thinking about just putting on a new Gen 3 since it has to be changed anyway. I really appreciate the offer though!!

If I caught someone tipping my bike over , I would blow one of his two knees to hell with a 200 grain hollow point. I know catching them is the problem.

A torn acl only takes 35 lbs pressure to the side of the knee.... no guns needed, no criminal charges laid.
People would see if a fist thrown but won't even notice what caused him to fall if you tear up his leg! LOL
Your honor, he must have torn it in the scrimage

May I make suggestion? Buy and install an alarm with an adjustable perimeter motion sensor and remote paging. If the bike out ofsight the warn away feature will prevent molestion. If it doesn't it sounds the alarm and pages you. You catch the sucka and deal with 'em.

Just got back from the dealer. $2500 for th damages. $800 for one stock muffler!! Looks like there is a STRONG possibility I will be upgrading to a Gen 3 and get the PC. I will pull the flies then and see if all this hype is true

$800 for ONE muffler?!?! I'll send you BOTH of my pristine mufflers, lets call them "New In Box" since they will, in fact, be in a box when you get them. $100 'not so' firm! Deal? Hell, as an extra bonus I'll throw in the stock headers, too! All for the not so low but definitely negotiable price of $99.99+shipping. This is a one time deal so be sure you dont miss out!
