As title, I had a pretty bad luck recently, being hit by a jack**s driver cutting thru the double yellow line while I was riding in the HOV lane.
I am going to part my DT out to get some money back for medical bills (the driver's got an expired ins policy)
Not sure how many ppl want to do this but let me know if you need anything (and where to locate the part you are looking for)
*Most damage are in the front & right side, check following link for more photo

P.S:
For most of the parts, I really have no idea about how much to ask, so maybe you can make me offer so we can work things out.
Regarding the Givi E450 top case, I got a Givi E84 Backrest Pad and Givi SR92M special rack all together as a package for sale.
All for $220 + Shipping

Thank God you are alive. The bike looks brutal.
Of course I/we are all more than upset to hear this. IMHO it should be a jail able offense to have no insurance. Especially when someone is injured. There is no excuse.
I hope you recover well, and quickly. You have my prayers. :)

How much for the engine and fuel injection throttle body /ecu? That would make a mad b&w swap..... :o

Happy your Alive.
Shoot me a PM for the seat.

Glad you survived this ! Now, get an Attorney and sue for medical bills. Attatch drivers' wages to recover. You should NOT have to be responsible for your own medical bills . Was bike insured? If so, they should cover uninsured motorist (for bike and medical ) and then they would recover through subrogation .
-
Hope you did not have injuries.
-
I hope you're ok kfc, shame about your scoot and I hope it hasn't put you off riding!
cheers

I would like to share more information but now I have decided to hand this case over to lawyer and they don't want me to share too much information.
Will share more once this case is settled.
Thanks again, de dee, donjack, boo, bluesin, Amac1680, and zombie.

Ride safe!

Hey BettinANDlosing,
I have no idea about that, maybe you can make me an offer?
If you're located in SoCal, maybe you can come take a look and pick it up?

Thanks bluesin,
yes, I finally hand it over to lawyer, but they told me there's nothing they can do if the other guy doesn't has insurance.
If that is the case, I will have to go to small claim court and the process gonna take forever......
Being not able to work and have to deal with all that is very frustrating :'(

Unfortunately I had, but look at the bright side, I survived :)
Thanks boo!

Thanks Don,
I am not in a good shape but it could be a lot worse... so I am thankful :)
Riding might not be an option for me because I don't want to see my families suffer again :(

The rear wheel is fine but I will have to take a look (and some photo) tomorrow to make sure the front one is in good (safe to operate) condition.
Will keep you posted.

YW kfc ! Trust me, I was in a hit-and-run with a (Canadian ) semi-truck a number of years ago.
An attorney can save you much headache, but- it is STILL a headache.
Keep track of ALL your costs ( mileage to/from Dr, appts., out-of-pocketexpenses [even things like Ibuprofen/Aleve ,bandages ] ,safety gear you were wearing,accessories on bike,cost of photocopies/police reports/eyewitness statements and so on). Even if you give paperwork to your attorney-keep copies for yourself. Email Attorney A LOT ...it keeps a trail of conversations.
Best of luck to you ! Let us know ( it took me 8 years to get to MMI ,or, Maximum Medical Improvement ) if ruling goes as it should !
;) ;D

I understand the frustration. Why Small Claims Court? That is usually for costs UP TO $5,000.00 .
Even if he HAD insurance and you went to Court... you can't tell the Jury that you are suing the Insurance Company ,not the driver, or the Judge will throw the case out . (Expect to be treated like the Defendant rather than the Plaintiff , as well . ) :(
If you sue him in District Court (or even Federal? ),you should be able to attatch his wages to recoup losses.
Did you have insurance? Did it cover Medical and Uninsured Driver ? Did it cover losses of scooter/accessories, etc. ?
Keeping you in my thoughts .
-
Glad that you are safe and alive. Can't stand wreckless drivers. With no insurance as well.......sheesh I would have been pissed.
Once again glad you are alive and well.

Folks this is where uninsured/underinsured can save your butt, on any vehicle. KFC glad your ok and wish you well. That right there is why I don't ride on freeways in the big city. Crazy drivers going 80 mph changing lanes etc. We all know the dangers on 2 wheels, to me though crazy freeway drivers increase your chances substantially of hitting the pavement. Someday if I get a bigger scoot/mc I'll still avoid them like the plague. Keep in mind I mean congested populated areas not out in the boonies.

hi KFC hope you are feeling better,. I got nailed by a car a few years ago busted all my ribs one one side, they thought I was dead for a while , 3 weeks later I woke up, now I am riding again,. so there is a silver lining some where,. must have a few things left on my bucket list,. say do you have to hold off on parting out the scoot, for the insurance, havent heard from you on the wheels,.
-
It must be you, kfc, no one can fake that pain that comes thru the posts. Sorry it took me so long to wish you well but get better real soon and run that lawyer like a chainsaw: get everything you can 'cause you only got one shot at it. Oh, I can just HEAR the lame excuses outta the guy that hit you! When you feel like it tell us what you might have been able to do different to make up for some knuckle-draggin', mouth-breathin' moron that hit you.
How much for the throttle grip and housing? When ever you feel like it, your schedule not mine. God bless.

Hello,
how is the condition of the headlight control switchgear? Does it have the option to totally turn off the lights, dimmer and low beam options?
Thanks.

Good luck with your recovery. I see improper entry / exit from the carpool lane all the time and it scares me. I really keep an eye out for those drivers.
Recommend uninsured / under-insured motorist coverage for all car / scooter driver. Huge numbers of uninsured / under-insured drivers. Remember, in CA 15/30 if a scooter gets hit and there is no passenger then the total payout for the accident is $15,000 not $30K. If there is a passenger then up to 30K will be paid out. A day or two in the hospital can run $30K+
