Thread: So much for installing the plastics...

  1. #1

    So much for installing the plastics...

    So somebody fucked with my bike sunday morning. Apparently the cops impounded it for being a hazard, I'm guessing some kids vandalized it and left it on its side leaking fluids. Haven't seen it yet, but luckily I went with the comprehensive coverage this time. I will post some pictures when I go look at it.

    In the event insurance decides to fix it, where should I take it?

    TFOG would be my suggestion or buy the plastics online and I can help you put them back on in my garage. You're also welcome to store the bike at my place until you can get replacement parts for what's messed up. More than likely the insurance company will just write you a check and you can either do the work yourself or take it to a shop. Let me know what you need :-)

    I'd put a camera on it and have my shotgun pointed at it with a motion alarm. AKA hunting.

    lol no shit. It was parked in a lot right across from my buddies house that doesn't get busy until summer so I thought I was in the clear. I ordered plastics already, hopefully the bike isn't totaled, otherwise I will have to sell them when they come in.

    I would recommend TFOG as well.... If you need a place to store the bike, you can bring it to my place as well. But I am out towards DIA.

    See what it costs to buy it back and track that sucker out. Or at least sell it for parts depending the price.

    Was it parked on the street? My guess is someone backed into it trying to parallel park.

    He said it was in a parking lot, but that car thing does sound possible. That would explain the damage on both sides. Sorry about your luck Nobody

    Wasn't on the street, it was in a lot that gets barely any use across from a friends house.
