The helmet is a HJC Symax 2. The jacket is a TourMaster Flex (series 1). The pants are First Gear HT Air mesh. The boots are TourMaster Response. The gloves are TourMaster GX WP Gloves (mesh).
The jacket is listed as:
- Converts easily from a 600 Denier Carbolex? shell to an Armor-Link Mesh shell and vice-versa.
- 1680 Denier Ballistic Polyester in the impact areas provides exceptional protection and abrasion resistance.
The part of the arm that took most of the impact was the 1680 D panel.
The insurance adjuster came today. The guy took LOTS of pictures of the bike. He even pulled out on the engine guard cover to take a pic of the scratch on the guard and found a very slight scratch on the end of the muffler. He wrote down all of the front fairing parts, mirror cover, mirror, engine guard, guard cover, saddle bag, muffler and told me they will pay me for the factory OEM parts pricing as well as pay me the labor to replace each of the parts based on Honda's standard cost/time tables. They are fine with me doing all the repair work myself. He told me he will come back and adjust the claim check for more if I find any other damage as I take it all off.
He also took pictures of all the gear- helmet, jacket, gloves, pants, boots. Yep, the gear is all covered also, up to $2000 worth. He will send me payment for all this gear as well based on MSRP of the gear (or equivalent gear if replaced by a newer model- eg: TM Flex is now the TM Flex series 2) minus 5% for the first year, 10% for each year after that. Most of the gear is less than 2-1/2 years old and the jacket is less than 3-1/2 years old. The gloves only have 2 very small marks on them and he included those in the claim to be replaced. They will send me a check when he gets all the pricing and labor looked up and totaled. It will end up being much more that I will need to replace the parts and gear that really needs replacing since he will base the costs on manufactures MSRP for everything and I will buy from online stores at substantial discount (of course). I will not need to send in any receipts or verify what I buy in any way. They just total it all up based on the information from the manufacturers and send me a check. I will now be able to add some more 'safety' gadgets-equipment-lighting on the bike.
I have Amco (Allied) Insurance on both my bike and my wife's scooter. I bought $500 deductible but they have a rewards program that drops the ded $100 every few years with no accident so for this time my ded is $400. After this claim my ded will be back to $500, but if I go for many years accident free it could eventually get down to zero even though I am paying for the $500 ded. Price I paid for the policy really isn't relevant since it will always be different in different locations and for different bike models/years, but I will say it is comparable to what most of you pay and was the lowest at the time I bought it originally.
