Spoke to her insurance company. She basically described it exactly how it happened! She saw both of us, and assumed we both went. Sun glare, blah blah blah. Now just gotta get a shop to fully inspect and have an adjuster review it.
Funny to note - my buddy has a 1200 Buell with exhaust (think slightly synchronized agitated thunder) and I'm running stock still. I know she must have heard him go, and all that was left was my purring kitty cat. I wonder if in this case, would loud pipes have really saved lives... er... sides?
For those interested, I was on Westtown Rd, making a left on Paoli/Gay/W Chester Pike.
Overview:
Google Maps
Street view (I would be to the left and slightly behind the van when she crept up and turned into me):

Oh - and I did find a scuff on my boot. Nothing I'm going to complain about... just wanted to say that I'm happy to report that gear did play a role.
And yes, Red Wasp, et al, are correct. At the end of the day, nobody go hurt and that's all that really matters.
