Zitat von Freddyfruitbat im Beitrag #15Zitat von Lee im Beitrag #12https://www.bmw-motorrad-bohling.com/uk/protector-for-system-bag-left-side.html Those do not look like they would work on the RS or R bags. The list shows for pre Wethead bags. We had rubber protectors sold by BMW on our K1200RS bags and they worked good.

Thanks everyone. Well two days later I have a bruise on the arm and sore a stomach and neck muscle. Feels like I did a 100 sit-ups. Doc says am good. The driver was a newly licensed and admitted on the scene that he was at fault. His insurance company (Progressive) agreed. Progressive has been a pleasure to work with. Went thru one person before being connected with a claims rep and she has been very proactive letting me know the progress, even to the point of calling my insurance (Rider) rep manager to keep things rolling when she wasn't hearing back. Went thru three to get to the Rider rep and haven't heard since yesterday afternoon. Rider was brought a few months ago maybe growing pains. Never gone thru something like this or know of someone who has. So this is a life learning lesson and I have heard many horror stories. And this is becoming a story now that say the bike is totaled. |

Sorry it happened to you but very glad to hear it was not worse. I lost my 2007 anniversary Honda Interceptor that way. Someone pulled out and drove right into my saddlebag. The bike was totaled and I didn't get anywhere near what it was worth to me. Be sure you talk to the insurance company about any gear that touched the road. The paid for all of my gear. Again, I didn't get what it was worth but I got something for it. |

Zitat von Qmoto im Beitrag #17 Glad you're feeling ok, and that Progressive has been decent to work with. Geico, the driver's insurance that hit me, was horrible. I'll parrot the fact that you need to push for replacement of your gear, especially helmet. Check your State's laws on "Loss of Use", as you should be able to get a bit more money, or have them pay for a rental bike in the interim. NC is a "Loss of use" state, but Geico has refused any compensation there, but my lawyer is using that for leverage and expects to get a decent settlement. By decent, I mean enough to get him paid, all my medical bills, and maybe a couple bucks into my pocket. |

Well things are moving along quickly. I have to say both Progressive and Rider have been good. They are both probably happy to see no big medical bills and so am I. It looks like by the time this over I would have come out little better than even. And now rocking with a 2020 R1250RS. Universe works in strange and wonderful ways.
