Well... I am going out to buy a Loto ticket.  The Councillor called me back.  Yes the city should do better, yes he will let Public works know, and yes there is a claim process to get these things resolved... and how did I feel.... much better I said

Well got a letter from the City saying it was Enbridge gases fault. Called them, talked to a really nice lady. Then got a call from Freedom Harley...the estimate to put the bike back the way it was at the beginning of that fateful night... wait for it....$10200...yes that is not a typo. A screaming eagle gas tank is $1400??Outer fairing is 1099, with the inner being $1181..one lower is worth 435 and front engine guard is $282... Labour to replace parts is $1200 and painting is $1000... plus rivets and gaskets, etc...

I know I could source the parts and do it myself for a whole lot less.. OMG

So now I await Enbridge... course I have taken pictures of their new plate site... lots of warning signs and nice pavement shoulders in real pavement, not cold patch... so they will look guilty as all sin if I take them and the city to small claims court...

Damn, that's a helluva repair estimate. Most insurance companies would total the bike.

If enbridge wants to total it, I am fine with that... make me a good offer that includes the bike.  I'll buy another and modify this one using used parts and a new paint job... maybe make it a military bike so I can ride in parades... have not seen a RD done that way... Im sure you guys will help me spend some coin LOL

Thats why you get replacement insurance on the bike, including upgrades, my repair bill from an accident was 21k, plus 4k in supplementals, would of cost em 38k to total it ....and that was an '06 in april of 2009

How can a standard, unpainted, black plastic inner fairing like what came on the 2000 SERG possibly be $1,181? :shocked2:  With the parts prices you've quoted here, $80,000 for Chip's complete 2001 SERG suddenly seems "reasonable."

Some day I knew he would see the light.
And I try hard to keep mine as nice as his!

Standard black inner fairing is about $250.  Just checked it at Ronnie's HD looking at a 2001.  


Just double checked the parts stash:

I've got a primed new primed inner that will sell for $200 plus shipping if he's interested.

$250 I could see (even though it probably costs $25 to make).  We must have some confusion over what an "inner fairing" is.  $1,181 would only be right if all the gauges, radio and speakers came attached.

Have you priced a inner fairing for your SEEG lately?  :o  spyder

As of last year, an inner fairing for my 2010 FLHXSE was $529 (less discount) and Tilley's HD in Salisbury, NC charged $290 for the installation. Support brackets would have been $46 each if they had been needed. Outer fairing was $737 (less discount).
