I called the claims lady and she said they were going to fix my Montero at an estimate of 7800.00 and that the 848 is totaled and worth 11,000.00 and change.  I told them if they could find that bike for sale for that price I would buy it and give them 1000.00 for their trouble.  They totalled out the trailer and said it was worth 550.00.  I then told the lady to shove that quote up her ass...(in nicer words of course)  We will see.......

Oh man, this clearly belongs in the BS thread.  :-\


I hate dealing with insurance....

Someone please prove me wrong but I think the insurance company is going to screw everyone on this one. Especially Marquees on the bike. Again, I hope I am dead wrong... would love to be. But I have a feeling of dread that his insurance and the other insurance company will fight like dogs over who pays for what damage and when the damage actually occured. Besides, no one ever comes out ahead when their vehicle gets totaled whether it's a bike or car. Just make sure you get all the goodies off of it before the insurance company gets it, if they aren't torn up too.

Big steaming pile of BS on M and T it looks like.  What did M pay for his 848, without the mods?

Lawyer time?
Also, your insurance company(s) should go to bat for you- that's their job [thumbsup]

is the "Texas tough hammer" still around?  give him a call.  I completely agree, this belongs in the BS thread.

When my bike was totalled they did a market survey on value because the "book" value was too low. I was pretty happy with the settlement, considering. Tell them the bike is too new and fairly rare to go by book value.
