The first thing she wanted when I took her home from the hospital was to see her bike or pictures of it. I had neither, the next morning I went and got pictures for her, I also hauled the bike to the Dealer I wanted to estimate it, not the dealer the tow company was going to haul it to. A week later, her first time leaving the house she had me take her to see her bike.

She then made a comment about no-one being able to ride that out. Service manager and mechanic both said, no-one could ride it out, front wheel will not roll though forks, rear rim is severely bent forks are bent. My wife then said, it wasn't my fault and nothing I could have done, I want a new Road Glide exactly like the one I totaled.
