Well, as many of you responded to my crash thread last week. I have a question I'm thinking now that I'm a little better, that I might keep my bike and just not ride at night anymore.... anyway, it busted the oil pan and the oil is obviously gone. had a small oil on header fire for probably 20 secs before my buddy could get to it and blow it out. I really haven't looked at it closely, but they said the engine looks fine as far as they could tell cept for the oil pan being busted and the header bent up. I'm not sure how bad the header is, i'm too crippled to get down and really look at it. My question. would it be ok just to try to start it and if it cranks cut it off immediately? I'm gonna need the whole front upper and lower fairing, tail piece and right mid (all in pearl blazing orange if anybody has any for sale) and at least the black right lower, prob both sides on that. Oh and it bent the out lip on my back wheel just a little bit....everything else looks good cept for right peg, right rear peg and the little plastic T pipe coming off the front master cylinder. Before I go buying plastics I'd like to know if the engine is most likely ok. If I keep her I don't think I wanna go through the insurance even though I have full coverage.(or should I?) In the long run, I think It'd end up costing me out the butt with all my ins. going up....... all opinions appreciated!!!! Thanks for all the support in my "broken ankles hurt" thread!!!
