In the tradition of this less than stellar year - my R6 was once again
knocked down on the streets of DC. Pennsylvania Avenue. In front of the Mexican Embassy. According to the security chief the camera does not show anything other than one minute bike is standing and the next it is down. Apparently critical security cameras only work well in daylight. 2006 R6 - damage estimate $3300.00 *Regressive Insurance *says their salvage bid is $2800.00 Bike is valued at $5880 They are offering me 5880 or 2800.00 with salvage title. Any recommendations Thanks _______________________________________________ dc-cycles mailing list dc-cycles@... http://dc-cycles.org/mailman/cgi-bin/listinfo/dc-cycles |

As for the insurance? Gut reaction - take the $5880 and start shopping for a replacement... [Dave] I have to tentatively agree w/ Perry, that's my 1st thought as well. Would you lose any money in Farkles, mods, upgrades, aftermarket stuff, etc? How's the damage, purely cosmetic, or did it get run over too? Really though, the question should be what are you looking to do bike wise? Are you happy with the current mount, or thinking/lusting for another? If the former, then you dance with the one who brung ya, so to speak. Else... Look for another.

2800 for an 06 r6...
it would depend on how damaged it REALLY is.. and how much you really have to spend to get it back to decent condition? If you have goodies on it, and don't want to keep it, i'd say take the goodies off and sell them separately. 2800 is kind of high for an insurance buy back, but on the other hand, it depends on the condition, it still might be worth more than what you're paying to buy it back. SO ... how bad is the damage? and what state is your bike registered in? I hear DC doesn't have salvage titles, so that would be good.

Similar situation here.
My BMW R1100S bucked me off her high-side at Summit Point in August. Insurance estimate is $13,500. Road-ready estimate is $5000. Blue book is just over $8000.
