CEO has the right idea. If you track and I'm sure you do, this sounds like a good opp. to get all the track goodies you need. (not sure the ins. would pay for the marchesinis(

) tho

)

Good luck with whatever you decide to do.

Too bad you're too damn far away from me. Sounds like a good deal for someone.

Still working with the ins. company. There is a $6000 difference in what they say is damaged versus what the shop says. The shop has no motivation to total the bike because they wont get a fucking dime off of it. The ins. company missed half of the parts that are bad on the estimate. Goes to show you, you just cant do estimates based off of pictures.

All the fairings are toast and the ins. company is going to pay you for them... that will pay for race plastics AND a nice paint job.

The wheel is toast and the ins. company is going to pay you for them... now you can buy a pair of marchesini's.

Same deal for the exhaust system and rearsets, need to be changed anyways...

etc etc etc...

Track riding isn't for everyone, as hard as that might be for you to believe.

Never said it was. The point was that for someone who enjoys track riding, this is the perfect canvas.
