The damage does look minimal.. What do you think I should do besides ordering all the parts to get her running again.. ?
So, you're telling me I hurt your feelings? Sorry I posted it so soon after your crash while the wound was so fresh.

Frankly, I'm more concerned about YOU. The bike can be fixed easily... sure, with some money. But, take care of YOU.

wow... sorry bout your loss man, but even if you had full insurance on it they wouldnt cover a track incident you would have to pull an insurance scam in order to get that fixed via ins co. (not exactly a wise idea)... have the frame checked out and as long as its true just turn it into a track bike and then buy one for the streets.

Not necessarily, a lot of insurance companies look at it like a school as long you arent entering a race.

It sounds like a grey area... and if they make you sign a waver like they do at the drag track then your insurance will definately not cover it.

This place counts as a school as they do have classroom, INS companies do cover it 99% of the time.

Jon I've found some photos of your wreck and will post them up when I can.

You sure you didn't spin the rear because of your footpeg touching down due to not hanging off enough?

Both these posts are wrong. If it is a non-competitive event, then your insurance is legally bound to cover you.

Mine is covering me. There was no question.
