OUCH!!!

My motor had quite a bit of damage. They told me right now the estimate is $3500.
As you can tell from the scrapes on the windshield, the motor just about flipped. My mirrors didn't hold up too well either.

This is where the SUV hit my motorcycle. The saddlebag is just a little crunched! My radar gun was inside this saddlebag and now has a large dent and no longer works.

This is the side of the motorcycle with the majority of the damage. After the SUV hit the right saddlebag it spun the rear of the mc to the left. The rear tire caught the pavement, wobbled a bit, threw me off to the left as it went crashing down onto the left side. I slid across the road with my mc following. I thought to myself as I was sliding across the road...I sure hope my mc doesn't catch up to me! The mc slid across the road and nearly rolled. It then came to a rest facing the opposite direction I was originally traveling.

This is another shot of the saddlebag that was hit. I praise the Lord for protecting me and keeping me safe. I hope to have my motorcycle back soon! Thank you all again for praying!
