I couldn't get enough to keep a clean title and I got the feeling that once they made the totaled call, they were done.  Cry
I pulled the scootworks risers off  and put the oem ones back, radiator cover, headlight modulator, back off mod, l.e.d. lic. plate bracket, and custom chrome filter cover off, one handed. Risers were a pita, but the headlight bezel was a chore.  tickedoff

After the med bills get paid, it will be time to troll for chubby chicks, ummmm hunt down a fat lady.   cooldude

Hope you get back in the saddle again soon! It will be hard to replace that color combo though, It is my favorite, but never around for sale when I'm buying Undecided

she was red and black, the pic was after a hot bath, mothers chrome polish and liquid glass over a on call week where I couldn't ride anywhere. The pic looks orange.

I like the orange and black also. I was kind of thinking of a repaint to that when I wrecked her, never figured that it would be totaled. It was all cosmetic damage.

Good luck with the healing and eventual searching. I just went through the same thing and lost my red and black standard to an inattentive cager.
