Between your deductible and how much your rates will probably go up for the next 3 years if they consider it an at fault accident it would be MUCH cheaper to just fix it yourself. Insurance is such a scam.
I think I'm gonna go that route, I know quite a few old school back yard chopper type guys around here that can hook me up on stuff. My insurance just went down last month too, so I don't want to mess that up, its only $46 a month on the bike now for full coverage, and my car went down $20 too.

I just imagine you look like Pee Wee Herman after he leaves that biker bar. All scrawny pasty looking on a big ol' motorcycle. lol. Oh and then dumps it after he peels out.

this is the first time I've ever dropped this bike since I've owned it and I've been in the rain and other crappy situations plenty of times, I've ridden sport bikes, big gezzer glides, cruisers, power cruisers etc. I just hit a slick spot in a corner anyone would have gone down in that situation and it really isn't in that bad of shape. This bike is actually fairly small too and decently quick for what it is. If you guys don't like it thats fine, I enjoy the old school looking bikes

I'm actually gaining weight as well since I've been lifting for about the past year or so, I'm about 5 10 and still skinny as hell so yes I do look like pee wee herman.

man thats fucked up not my style but looks like a good bike, i wouldnt make the claim though, they pretty much total most bikes that get in an accident because of fear of frame damage, and you could probably do the reparis for 1/4th the shop estimate if you have parts and look around, kind of a bitch you got full coverage man

well full coverage was only like $6 more a month so I figured I might as well, I already found a few of the parts the tank is gonna be kind of hard to find I may just fix it and have it repainted.

Just do it yourself. If it is an at-fault accident you will get railed by the insurance increases. Insurance is for crazy expensive ---- like rollovers and theft.
