Well...obviously, I need to find a new insurance company.
Here's the damage estimate from the appraiser they assigned to the accident.
Please hold your laughter until the end...
Headlamp Assy. = $149.00
Lt Front Signal Mounting Bracket = $18.00
Lt Front Signal Lamp = $19.95
Lt Rear Signal Lamp = $19.95
Lt Grip Handle = $24.00
Clutch Lever = $36.00
Lt. Mirror = $110.00
Fuel Tank Green = $497.00
Shifter Lever = $31.00
Shifter Pedal = $23.50
Shifter Pedal Rubber = $16.95
Lt Front Footrest = $42.50
Lt Rear Footrest = $42.50
Lt Primary Housing = $365.00
Housing Gasket = $17.50
Lt Side Cover = $76.00
Cover Gasket = $1.75
Misc Hardware = $10.00
They guesstimate 5.7 hours labor at $32.00/hr
$75.03 in sales tax...
To which I have to respond......BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!
Are they f*cking kidding me?
Let's start with labor....which is $79/hr. In what world does any Harley shop charge $32/hr.....Hell when my old man was an auto mech. it was like $45/hr...and that was back in the late 80's.
And the idea that you can replace my side directionals for $19.95?
The fuel tank...which I've found online for $755 and which my Harley shop tells me is $800+
Unbelieveable. And they wonder why people are unhappy with the state of Insurance in Mass
PS...it's been three weeks since the accident, and I still haven't been compensated.
I miss my FXR3 :(

Dumped a K1100lt (bmw) a few years ago. Apraiser was a rider. Said if any hidden damage that dealer could drop them a line and they would adjust the claim. The bike got all fixed up about 1500.00 and I just paid the deductible. I use Safety insurance.With the rates they get in Ma. short riding season etc. we should get good service.

UPDATE:
When it was all said and done...the company's estimate was off by $765..,which is what Harley charges for my new tank.
The bike's ready to be picked up, (minus the clean tank...it's coming in a few weeks) but the weather's not agreeing with us this weekend.
