progressive covers farkle ?? - nkrl-ish

First, this post might seem like it should have been posted on Friday - Vendors Day...... this is not an add nor endorsement, but, I got my Progressive KLR Insurance renewal and I see where Progressive will cover up to 3K in Farkle? And, the accessories do not have to be installed by a dealer. You do need to have the Comp/Coll Coverage. There has to be a catch? Eddie (03' KLR650 "la poderosa")

Take pictures of your farkled up bike BEFORE you need to make a claim.

Photo's won't cut it with the insurance guy, I tried when my Suburban was stolen and only after I dug out years of receipts did I get their attention. They still didn't give me what I believed it was worth but I can rest easy someone south of the border has a nice car for their family. Kevin Powers wrote:

I learned a lesson in how not to change tires the other night. If you try to use more tire irons (3) than you have hands (2), somebodies bound to get hurt. Not to worry, it was only a flesh wound ;^) Kevin With fresh 606's on his KLX

Unfortunately, I can. I didn't get to $3,000, but this list of mine added up close to that: subframe repair/reinforcement kit replacement skid pan (replace plastic with metal) plastic foot pegs (with replacement mounting bolts) rear brake reservoir guard replacement hand guards (metal, with removable wind protection) replacement front fork springs replacement rear spring/shock replacement seat replacement balancer chain adjuster and spring (doohickey) replacement magnetic oil drain plug guards to protect radiator (on left) and reservoir, etc. (on right) chain oiler headlight modulator panniers and mounts Chris Rick McCauley wrote:

Oops, how did plastic foot pegs get in there? That should read "replacement foot pegs" Chris Chris Norloff wrote:
