Definitely glad you okay...I don't know how many mods you had, but that doesn't seem like a bad number considering trade-in value of my 08 Nightster is 8100

Ouch!

Glad you don't total so easy....you sound like a man made for a Nightster. The styling says "you gotta be tuff to me me"

Get healed up and decide what happens to rest of bike. If you decide to buy it from insurance co, I'll buy your pipes.

DAmn rmodel. Sorry to hear that happened. I am glad you did not get hurt worse. That sucks your hand is hurting and you need it for work. Some people would say sue the beeyatch!

I wrecked a new car once, my fault. So I can only imagine how it must feel on a new bike. Hopefully you'll be able to use the money to get something new. Sorry about the loss -- but at least you are walking and talking and not lying vertical.

Glad your OK,

I fear the rear ender, they usually do not turn out well. You are very lucky.
I think I would rather hit something head on and take my chances flying through the air than get slammed from behind.
Happy Shopping!!!

I'm a little paranoid about getting rear ended. I check my mirrors at every stop and try to leave a bolt-hole to gun 'er into if it looks like I might have someone hit me.

My last car accident was in my car. I was sitting at a red light, minding my own business when I heard the screech of brakes behind me, then wham! a Tahoe slammed into me. Fortunately, I was in my truck. If I'd been on a bike, I'd've been toast.
