its not high here? for me for a 2000 gsxr 600 and full coverage is only 200/year. And ive only had my license for about a month or so.

I like you pittbull, but you are full of yourself if you think you only would pay 200 a year for full coverage. So basically you are what 16 or 17 and just got your DL and got quoted at around 20 bucks a month. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Hell when I was 19 and got mine I was paying over 80 bucks a month so around 1000 bucks a year, but only paid half, so ended up around 500 something. That was with 0 pts and a good driving record of 3 plus years.

Wow! Thats fuched, If he wasn't drunk or high he must have been a nooby rider or just a dumb a$$. Houston traffic is a mother down here especially for motorcycles, they do not look out for us what so ever. You have to ride defensively at all times. I thank the big man above everyday I make it home safe. Here a pic of my scooter. 2002 Harley Lowrider Twin-Cam, 88 cubic inch 1450cc.

To be honest, that statement irritates me a little. You guys make the choice to ride your bikes among shit loads of traffic that is going 70-90 mph. Everyone knows vehicles have limited visibility and that bikes present low profiles -- and are somewhat rare (so that you are not expecting them). And then, a great deal of the time, it is the guy on the bike that is weaving in and out of traffic making cars adjust their speed suddenly. I am sure you are not like that -- but that is what I see more ofetn than not.

Ummm, you're joking right?

The police/coroner HAS to take pics of anything and everything involving the accident, no matter how gruesome..

Obviously you're not friends with any policemen or firemen.

That doesn't look too bad.

A motorcycle hit me at 150+ a couple years ago doing this to my Accord (with less than 2k miles on it).

I would have take pics of his bike, but there was *NOTHING* left. Debris over a quarter mile and 6 lanes of traffic. The rider cracked his skull open, ripped open his stomach and broke about every bone in his body. He didn't have insurance. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/pissed.gif.9f665f96bc89e98e708dabd4580bb591.gif

It was about $17k damage. Damage went into the rear floor of the cabin. They said it was equivalent damage of a semi rear ending me.

I have permanent back damage from the accident - he was racing and weaving through traffic. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/verymad.gif.3f39c5c2fd57527b671fad3efdfac756.gif

Do you have uninsured motorist insurance? If so, has your carrier paid you -- and not just for the damge to your vehicle -- but also for the back injury?

hwy 169 is an elevated highway with a cement wall on both sides of the highway around that area, had he swerved and rolled he would have done so on open highway and bounced off a cement wall and if he flipped over the wall he would probably fall a good 20 feet to his death

so lay the bike out like you are taught. everyone knows how to lay a bike out if ever needed, that is...if you ride a bike of course. i mean guys do wheelies and shit at 100, im sure he can lay out at 120 "safely" if you want to call it that. I would rather slide 400 feet, risk hitting a concrete barrier, breaking a lot of bones, and living, and possibly falling 20 feet (not that far really) not enough to kill you any how. less you land head first. the jacket has slide gear all over it........the reason to wear leathers.

he could have lived if he wasn't A) driving like all bikers end up doing at some point or B) knew how to react.

Yes I did at the time. Yes I was slightly compensated for my back. My medical bills were higher than the damage to my car, so they figured that into my payement.

I hope that he learned a valuable lesson.

That can't be real... I'd expect a lot more damage to him and everything then whats there. I can't really see the person in the semi saying it felt like another semi hit him with that little damage, looks like he wouldn't of even felt it hardly. If it is real I doubt many bones are intact. Heh. Probably poured out of the helmet when they took it off.
