Wishing you a speedy and complete recovery DaSwami!

If this pertains to you, just be aware that my insurance company was quick to total out my 2014 CB1100 that I slid off of the road with last spring. I wanted to fix my CB, but I was denied that option. If interested, see my thread “suhawk305’s bike.”

as a fellow " panhandler " I hate hearing anyone get hit especially locals , hope you recover quickly

The best part about growing up in Florida is i didn't have to move here when i got old.

Sorry to hear about your accident.
You're lucky you're not in the hospital.
My only input is... do you want to fix it?
Will it be as reliable in your own mind, as well as mechanically as it was?
I think I'd go look at the new CB1100's. Keep your options open.
Good luck

So sorry to hear about this hope you get well soon.... the bike can be replaced just get better!

I think I read somewhere the other day that being rear-ended on a motorcycle is the new left turn in front of a motorcycle.

I still think if someone would make a small strobe to mount to the top of our helmets like a school bus ....As dumb as it would look I think it would help.

RE: Got hit today
That sucks - glad you are reasonably ok.

I have been a witness to bikes being rear ended twice, once fatally (hit by another biker in front of the Boot Hill Saloon during bike week in Laconia, NH 2013).

I suspect the kind of damage you described would result in a writ off.
