I am glad everyone is okay

Now about the insurance, you were not riding but if you claim it won't your rates be affected. Can't you NOT claim it and put the entire thing on the dealer?
Why should you be penalized for their faults?
You now have a claim against you; they don’t know it was the dealer.

Maybe I don’t know how things works, but I don’t think you should have to do ANYTHING except wait for them to put a 09 together for you

Sorry to hear about it.

It sounds like they are going to take ownership though.

The dealer's shop is on the hook first, then the actual driver of the bike, maybe the cage driver. I wouldn't talk to your Insurance Company until you get the police report and work with the other parties. The only thing you are out shoul be a few days of riding time.

thank God you weren't invilved, and nobody was hurt.

At teh end of the day, the Moco would be happy to se another bike.

realy, your next step would be to get the Dyno shop owner's insurance Comp work with the bike and cage drivers.

Yoou will just pick up your bike next week at the local dealership. Bring your digital and snap a few pics of al your items involved in the wreck.

Sorry to hear that. I hope everything works out for you. I hope the insurance companys and your dealer get everything straightened out soon. As bad as it sounds, I suppose its better that something like this happened in the winter than during the riding season.
