Just returned from a car trip to Charlotte to see friends and saw this when I fired up the computer. So sorry to read this but glad you are okay.
Here's friendly, not legal advice. Get lots of medical bills and make sure you are okay. Do not settle quickly and if you are of a mind, be aggressive on replacing your bike. Carriers generally prefer to total bikes anyway because they get the salvage value and net a lower cost over repair. Then go buy the new Tiger 800 or the Thruxton 1200 when it comes out. This is particularly true if there is any damage to your forks or triple tree.

Subject: [emrat:7994] My accident
Just in case any of you RATS see my destroyed Tiger at Erico's, or hear the story, I thought I would post about my accident this Sunday. As Bob and I were leaving Erico's party, we got close to Coors field and a "bloody" car turned into my lane causing me to hit it's front wheel and spinning me into another parked car. Had my full gear on course, but had a hard fall anyway. No head damage, no broken bones but various deep bruises in lots of places. Really buggered up my hand that had surgery a year ago, so that pisses me off the most. Don't know how the Tiger faired but it is in intensive care at Erico's. Thanks to John Beldock for taking me to emergency and taking the Tiger to his shop so quickly – and Justin and others from the shop helped too. Cpt. Bob was riding ahead of me so he was not involved. The car driver got a ticket, never saw me he says of course.
REMINDER – ALL THE GEAR ALL THE TIME
Recovering at home
