MrsSquid and I were on the last day of a 12 day vacation to the north shore of Lake Superior when I ran into a ditch just after a hairpin turn, on the INSIDE of the corner..... We were having a great time. We met up with a shipmate of mine who lives in western Minnesota riding around, seeing the sights. I blame my self as it only took a few seconds of inattention to ride into a ditch. Progressive told me the bike is worth $12,400 and it suffered enough damage to be totaled..... I am perplexed as I did not think the bike was worth that much or that it took that much damage. I looked at the online pricing sites Nada lists a high retail as $11,085 and KBB lists $10,795 (BTW, the midnight venture has a high price on NADA of $12,050) I will try to get some photos of it as it is at the local multi-brand dealership...... Live and learn. Physically we are OK, but MrsSquid got some nasty 2nd degree road rash on her left arm. I got 1st degree road rash, a bruise on my chest where I broke the windshield and a really sore and bruised thigh where the clutch handle pressed against me. Neither of us have broken bones and MrsSquid is VERY thankful for wearing an armored textile jacket as it saved her shoulder. Both of us were wearing helmets so they took the damage. We are so thankful to GOD that we were not hurt worse!!!!!!!!!!!! Now, I need to go motorcycle shopping.......
