Great to hear that the driver's info was real.
A little more time, it will all get worked out. Winter is not a bad time to go without the bike.

Wow, $2000 seems pretty high.
Can you post the estimate or list the prices, etc.?
I would not deal with your insurance until you are sure the other driver is not going to pay.

Maybe a month or two, I'll report back.

All pretty good advice.
I'd suggest to one and all, to cover your bases well as you can at the scene of the accident. A police report does help, if you have their insurance and contact info and they...

I looked back at your photo, the bolt has signs of use on the head.
The one we have is chrome, yours is anodized.
Maybe something to do with the crating?

This is at least the third time I've heard about this.
The first was on my son's 09 250, someone on the other forum posted about it as well.

I love the leaf blower for drying.
Also, I'm a big fan of Mother's Cleaner Wax.
And like Kkim said, never wash it when it's warm.

Save it, use it on school, pay off debt.
If you use it on beer, don't ride.

Ok, I trust you, buddy.
Should I shim or just run richer.
Counter-clockwise is rich, clockwise is lean, right?

I was afraid you were going to tell me to work on the carbs.

Guys, $3500 for an 07 with 1000 miles?
Am I missing something here?
Is it a west coast thing?

Another for Kkim's 250 forum

Yet another Kkim recruit.
If you don't rename the forum, you should at least put out a T-shirt in his honor.

In any account, I thought I'd get over...
