I got the money minus the deductible. There's some internal fighting going on right now. My adjuster assigned 100% liability on the other guy, the other adjuster assigned 50-50%. The weird part is we have the same insurance company. So they're trying to sort it out. Obviously I get the full return on my deductible if he's 100% at fault, which he is.

I'm going to fix my bike at my leisure time, it's mostly if not all cosmetics. As for my injuries, it's nothing serious. My left knee got banged up by the tank. I guess it's a common injury.
