^^ LOL. A lot of people have been saying that. It's still NOT cheap in any sense, but still cheaper than most places I've been to over the past couple of months.

 

UPDATE 12.28.07 - DAMAGE ESTIMATE

Here is the damage estimate from the dealer............






Yeah, that's right.

$10,443.33

......to fix what people say "doesn't look too bad". Frickin amazing.

 

well if that's not totalled I dunno what is

 

WOW!!!!!

$8,600 in parts and only $900 in labor. Holy sh*t!!!!!

 

uhh...new bike?

 

^^ I would hope so. Seriously, if they say to fix it, I'll be speechless, but I don't think they're that retarded.

 

D-A-Y-U-M!!!!!! [sm=insomnia.gif][sm=insomnia.gif][sm=insomnia.gif][sm=insomnia.gif][sm=insomnia.gif]


That's f'ing crazy.... it's amazing how much some of those little parts cost ($700 for an instrument cluster?? WTF!?!?). That's alot of stuff though that all adds up real quick

So I guess you'll be getting that '08 after all, huh?

 

^^ Looks like it. I'll get to keep her too (I'm definitely buying it back if the opportunity is given). Maybe fix it over time and make her a track bike.

 

Holy chyt batman lol. new bike n buy er back. I bet you can get er track ready for under 2k easy.

 

If I do get a new bike, here are my choices........

Red/Black 2008 model - 9250.00 OTD
Red/Black 2007 model - 8256.00 OTD

The thing is, the 08 red/black has a red lower fairing and black side fairings (which looks HUNDREDS of time better than the 07). But the 07 is so much cheaper. I'm going to have to do some research to see how much I could get the 08 fairings for to swap them out.
