hmoc75 Posted August 25, 2008 Share #1 Posted August 25, 2008 hello friends... though i would update you guys on my crash. first i want to say thanks for the well wishes from everyone. so here we go. the bike suffered damage to the left side faring. it will need the center fairing rail the one that holds the instrument panel. it also needs a left mirrow, blinker, and fairing half. it also needs the panel that holds the left speaker and radio mount and left air vent. the rest i have already taken care of. now the news on us. the better half is doing very well. she healed up great. me i have a cracked rib and lower back damage. plan to go back to the doctor soon for a MRI. still can' t stand for a long period of time or sit for a long time. been off from work now since the crash. since i am self employed bills are mounting up quick. looks like i will be selling some things to get by until i'm back on my feet. ok now for the really bad news. on the date of our wreck my insurance had lapsed and our bills came in came to about 10,000 out of pocket for ambulance, er, x-rays cat-scan, and meds. stupid gets you everywhere huh. i laugh to keep from crying. on a good note i redone my insurance for a year and marked it on my calendar as not to forget again. forgetting cost me big time. thats it in a nut shell so if anyone has an old part just lying around hang on to it till i get on my feet and i will buy it frome you. also if you don,t mind mention me in your prayers and thanks again to the best group on the internet ever. steve:thumbsup2: tt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sarges46 Posted August 26, 2008 Share #7 Posted August 26, 2008 Hoping for the best for you guys and glad that ypu are healing. I have a question regarding the insurance. We have government vehicle insurance so this might not be the same. But, my house and life etc have a clause in there that carries the insured for 30 days over the end date. I was wondering if yours might be the same. I know medical is terribly expensive for our friends south so it might worth checking out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hmoc75 Posted August 27, 2008 Author Share #11 Posted August 27, 2008 thanks again guys.....as far as the insurance i checked and the officer that worked the scene said he would not have give me a ticket if it was under 30 days. the insurance agent said they couldn't cover because it had been over that time peroid. my insurance was 40 days out. i think the only other parts i need is the peice that holds the speaker for the left side. i would also have to replace the air vent and speaker grill on that piece. the only frame piece that was damaged was the top faring rail. the one that holds the instrument panel.
