A guy on a Heavily Modded Suziki GSX-R1100 decided to make a full throttle 1st to 2nd gear run near my parked car. A slow moving truck was in his way so he hit the throttle and was passing it on the right side.
My car was parked there on the street, and he evidently didnt see it until it was too late. He was on the binders bigtime and hit the left side rear bumper, creased my left quarter panel real good from the under the taillight to the wheelwell , totally missed the door but destroyed my mirror. He hit the ground with his bike doing about 25mph.
His bike suffered far worse than the Green Machine did, and he was unhurt save for his pride. He immediately got up and tried to restart it and split, but it wouldnt start. By this time i had ran out of the house and saw him trying to stand his bike up.
Some of his friends came over on foot and took his bike away while i was getting his info. my daughter called the cops. after over an hour, they never came.
The next day, I called his insurance company to find out if he had insurance. Guess what? yep, no insurance, no motorcycle endorsement and his phone number is not in service.
Too bad the prick didnt break his leg...Well, rather than file a claim and go thru all the bullsh*t, im gonna try and fix it myself.
I just got all my front end parts installed and was looking foward to taking a little cruise up North, with a good running and looking Mark.
it didnt happen.
Anybody have a 93 Drivers side Mirror w/Memory for sale?
Please let me know asap. Green would be golden, but any 93 color will work.
