Yep, at least 6 weeks, Mine got hit while parked last summer, took 6 weeks just top get the fender in. Unfortunately, it just got hit again in my parents driveway on Thanksgiving Day.
I guess I can be thankful I wasn't on it either time. As someone else said, watch for back and neck pain, it can take days before you feel it.

Certainly thanking God you are ok. I always leave at least a car length in front of me when at a light of stop sign.
If I have to move in a hurry I got some place to go.
Again, glad you are ok. BIke can be repaired or replaced.

Glad you are in one piece and your ride is back too. I think one poster mentioned he put on a BAL rear light. I have done the same and it does get noticed more than stock. Safe riding.

Glad things are working out. Too good looking of a scoot to loose. Enjoy it when you get it back.
