Damage to my car and bike
 

So the other night i got a knock on my door. Guy asked me if i owned the blue ZX6R and the 370z. I told him yes and he told me my bike was laying on the car. (i can only have 1 spot so i park my i bike right next to my car, never had a issue until now) Winds were really high that night, plus i was riding that day so i was low on gas in the bike. Had my cover on the bike but it lifted up on one side and acted as a sail. So i go outside and see the bike resting on the car. The frame sliders i bought for the bike were resting on the tire and thats it. So to make sure i lifted the bike up, backed it up abit and turned it on so i could get the lights to come on. Just as i go to look at the front fender where the contact was..."BAM!" big gust of wind comes again and knocks the bike over. This time it gets stock between the rear tire and quarter panel. Damn thing was stuck in there. Only way i could get it out without damaging the bike would be jack the car up and have someone hold the bike up. The guy already left so i was on my own. So i used abit of force and pulled the bike out, at the same time a piece of the front cowl and mirror went flying off. Heres the pictures...

Talked to a dealership for a bike and looked online...online seems like the best option for the 2 parts i have to be replace. $600 shipped. As for the car i called a body shop, they quoted me $595 over the phone to fix the 2 dents and the scratch. Did some work tonight and realised it wasnt a scratch, just a black scuff mark. Buffed it up with scratch remover and then waxed it...has a good shine to it now. So im hoping the dents arent to bad and they can just be banged out and not having to be filled and re-painted.

that really sucks...... damn

where are you going to park the bike now??
also, i dunno if paintless dent repair will work... kinda leaning it wont

Are these cars bike magnets? Isn't this the 2nd car in like, a week whose bike fell on it?

This is too painful...

Good luck with the fix.

the bike is in the same spot...i know, i know. But i have no place to store it right now and theft on bikes is abit high right now so thats why i have it so close to the car. I turned the bike 180* so if it falls, it falls away from the car, never thought of that before until my friend told me to do it. Bike will be going in storage in a week or two due to im embarrassed to ride it like that and i dont feel like fixing it right now, wait till the spring.

but why have a bike and car if you can only have one spot.... sell off the bike for the Z mods

sorry sir but that is the dumbest thing i have ever heard. I love my bike just as much as i love the Z, if not more. -1 rep for you...lol jk

and you live in Edmonton.....lol

i hate edmonton for bikes. I lived in Halifax, NS when i bought the bike and loved it...here its all straight roads, no twisties. Have to drive 4+ hours to the mountains for that. By the time i get there im just like "**** it, get me off the bike my *** is sore."

Dumbest thing he's ever heard NG.

shuddup foo!!

lol...

although i think having the bike near the car is pretty dumb too

No way dude, I fight foos.

not the pics again

:pics:

damn, sorry to hear and see the rides, shitty luck

Wow, sorry man :(! although I'd never park any type of object next to my car or vise versa...

Wow thats really sh1tty man.

If you go through insurance, don't tell them the wind did it.

that's an act of nature.

Kickstand sank through the ground?

I can't imagine using insurance unless he has one of those "rates will not increase" plans.

just keep quiet and fix it up.... no insurance........

Hey man, some people pay enough, that they are covered and don't give a sh1t.

There's a reason why my garage is is full of spare parts. $500 deductibles are not worth it.

if some punk kid did it, you'd need a police report.... why be a frauder

this should only be a comp claim right? shitt happens, atleast no one hurt

nah im getting rapped for insurence so im not going to them. Dont want my rates going up anymore then they actualy are. Car is going into the shop sometime next week to get fixed.

raped*....sorry, abit tired. Had to work 36 hours straight at the base...thank god they are letting me shoot at the range tomorrow and not making me do it today.

I kid, I kid
