Re: [St] Want to play guess the estimate?



 Hey Patti,

To borrow a line from the pilots amongst us - any landing you walk away from is a good landing!

And the ability to stand up and "get the attention" of the idiot? at fault is even better... 

Your pics remind me of seeing my blue 99 ST slide down the road a few years ago. The damage to it was more extensive than what you have suffered, but was all cosmetic. I went through insurance and they wrote it off. With the benefit of wonderful hindsight I wish I had kept it and fixed it myself.

Naturally I have no idea what your situation is, but this may be an option for you instead of seeing a gorgeous piece of machinery consigned to history.

Brett.

Hi Patty,?

Sorry to hear that you had a booh booh with booh. Glad you well enough to be worry about what the BIKE is going to cost to repair. My guess? Probably enough to total it.?
