Glad to hear you're physically OK....remember to always ride like #1 you're invisible and #2 everyone else behind a steering wheel is a careless dickweed.

I'm almost positive that bike was worth at least $5,000.00

It's not just motorcycles they hit. I had somebody pull out and drive into the side of my car while texting. The guy tried to blame me, asked if he could move his car to side of the road but instead floored it before I could get any info or a plate number. He didn't even hit the brakes before he hit me. If you don't notice a car how will you see a bike.

It's sad and true...

So this is a good reminder for the first thing to do is start taking pictures immediately especially the licence plate

Glad to hear your injuries were seemingly minor. It's not that they don't see us, it's that they don't look.
