mishap

ok just got bike on road after a long winter of cleaning and rebuilding. So road up to ballpark and parked away from everyone I thought and a guy backed into my bike and knocked it over. I was glad he came and found me and gave me his insurance info. anyway insurance is allowing me $200 for muffler on kerker exhaust. Can I get just the end of the exhaust and can I get it for $200. They have not allotted me anything for rejetting.

That blows, where do you live. In California they have to return your vehicle to per accident condition, so if you can't find one for that price tell his insurance and get more $$$. Hope it works out for you. When I was wrecked on my 77 650 I held out and got $3,500 for my bike.

I live in Indianapolis. They seem to be willing to replace it(muffler) but not whole exhaust I just dont know where to get it.

Doh I should have looked at your user name. I'd try some local bike shops.

Supertrapp (which now manufactures Kerker) no longer supplies just the muffler...you must buy the entire system. They also only manufacture the entire KZ650 system in black, not chrome. Use this info as leverage to get a new system.

you said that ,lucky the guy found ya,thats the truth...it'll work out.....my girl came outta the store the other day to find a decent small dent/scrape in the passenger door of her civic and no note........we're over it that day...but for a few hours we were angry...least you got a decent guy that did it....good luck...megaphones for kerkers are really hard to find in good shape...now we know why:laugh:

Never accept a insurance company's first offer. It is not your fault that your bike got damaged. They do not have the right to tell you "We will give you $200 and no more". WRONG!!!. You will give me whatever it takes to bring my bike back to the way it was before your customer hit it. Call around, get some written estimates and make them pay you a fair price.
