By winning a court judgement you already have proof that he MUST pay for damages. Usually there will be a time limit after which you can put leins on everything that could poosible be his(same for the parents), you can garnish wages, and you can have to right to make payments do at anytime you choose. This keeps the gray area to a minimum.
Nothing personal, just business. Go by a dealer for an estimate for repairs. Give that to his parents, and let them have a week to pay the money before you file suit. You will go through with a small claims which has a limit of 5K. Go for the limit and see what you can get a judgment for.

Out of know where he comes this kid around the corner and instead of slowing down before the turn he waits last minute and locks up my back brake. Needless to say he hit a curb, went through some shrubs and ran my bike right into a tree. I went and got an estimate on how much it will cost to fix it and the total is $3,800. I didn't have insurance on my bike and he said he will pay out of pocket but every day he changes his mind. Anyone have any suggestions on what to do?
