Let them pay off your bike and get enough cash to buy a new one outright...I can't believe someone was that disoriented. ( BTW, glad your ok )

First off I am really glad to hear you are okay. It sounds like this could have been very bad. Count your blessings and I hope everything works out in your favor with the bike.

I would not be surprised to hear that this is a new Myrtle Beach policy to reduce bikes in the area. They will probably give the driver an award!

Get a Lawyer now. Her insurance company is gonna try and cheapskate the hell out of you, if pay at all. Get a lawyer and sue the living hell out of them until you can't sue em no more, then sue em again. They'd sue the hell out of you, trust me.
