That bike is completely nuc'd. Insurance wants $11,000 CDN for it. I think she is to far gone to be getting into.

Am really surprised that front rim broke out like that!   :o  Would take a lot to get that back on the road.

Wow... makes me sick to look at that. I hope the rider wasn't injured too badly, or killed.

I sure wouldn't mess with that bike. Too much damage to everything... the frame is probably bent, too.

I too am wondering how the spokes on the front Agitator wheel broke like that right along the hub. I have wondered how sturdy my front wheel really is with just those 7 thin-looking spokes. I've never seen a wheel break so cleanly like that.

Now that I know it CAN break like that, and it gives me goosebumps...

Assessing the damage it would appear that bike took a hit from the rear pushing it into some stationary object. That (IMO) would explain the damage to the rear and the front wheel damage it's showing. :nixweiss:

Wow... makes me sick to look at that.

I felt the same way last year when I was in Sturgis. While at the Rapid City Harley dealership. In the back they had a 2011 CVO SG in the same condition but without the front rim busted and covered in mud. Looked at it for about a minute then walked away. I did not even want to take a picture as I never want to ever see or remember a bike like that.

The one thing that did cross my mind was the "Harley Death Wobble". It did happen to me on the way to Sturgis.
