I feel your pain. My bike was knocked over b/f too...although, not damaged like yours. Mine only had slight cosmetic blemishes, thankfully. However, that really irritated me b/c my bike was pristine b/f that. :\

Any chance there was a security camera that caught the perp's vehicle plate? Perhaps file a report w/ police.

Had dealer plate thing on it so I called the dealers around here seen the hillbillys that did it and saw the truck just didn't think anything of it till older couple came in and told us are bikes where laid out and when got out there guy came up and was on phone with cops he chased them on foot to try to get plate but it didn't have one so unless the dealerships co-operate I'm out of pocket for the price of the parts

Sure, why not do the split-seat??? ;-)

Undertail exhausts on F4/F4i's are really more trouble than they're worth. You'd be much better off doing a high mount.

Make sure nothing ruptured from the bike being knocked over. Sometimes in situations like this, it can just be a little leakage burning off. But, thoroughly inspect for damage/cracks.
