I'm not paying, nor possibly painting it . Guess you could call it hush money.

What was damaged? What is everything that is damaged made out of? Light scratches, deep gashes, or dents?

Couple gouges/gashes in rear and front plastics, scratched my turns signals, scratched my bar ends, bent he shifter a little, and dented the side of the radiator. It fell on the parking curb. Nothing a couple of dollars and Ebay can't repair.

In all honesty I could care less, minus the radiator it looks like shit. Bike's old and has plenty of scratches.

The lady was drunk, very drunk. I wanted to call the cops to just get a report due to it is on the camera at work, but she said she would pay to have it repainted and repaired.

Dude, if the bike is junk tell the bitch 300. Then go buy some new pieces off EBay. Fuck repainting.

No. Has about as much plastic surgery as Joan Rivers. The bresticles look like veiny grapefruits. Has more drugs on her counter than I can name. Drinks like a fish. We've had to pick her up off the floor numerous times. Bottom line train wreck would describe her.

It wouldn't have bugged me but I watched her pull into the parking, hit my bike, got out and looked at it, then parked in another spot.

Might have to go gangster and paint it flat black.

if she is defintely paying for it, then yes take advantage of it by all means. teach her a lesson to look where she is going next time.
now is the time to go with satoracing pegs and maybe some nice ebay fairings or a kick ass paint job.
