    Totaled my 2010 HD Nightster. Well actually some dumb kid in a Honda totaled it for me. Apparently he decided he wanted to occupy the same dimensional space as me in the carpool lane. Bike was one of the funnest I've ever had. I have some pics laying around. Banged me up pretty bad too. I got lucky and was able to limp away from that one, but my running days are over.

    Never totaled. But I've only owned around 50 vehicles..... drag raced, street raced, off roaded, long hauled, SCCA Solo II, etc., grocery getters, muscle cars, trucks, sports cars, GT cars, etc.

    I did flip onto its side, sliding backwards at 60mph, a '70 International Travellall. It was a mess. But they fixed it, 'cause it had less than 500 miles on it. Company truck though, so I guess this doesn't count for your poll.

    Just one. My 2007 Tacoma that I owned for a grand total of 6 months. I was coming home from work one evening and in the left lane of a two lane road. The left lane was closed for construction so I signaled and changed into the right lane. As this guy's story goes, he saw the blinker and thought I was making a right hand turn. No dice bucko, he pulled out in front of me and I plowed into him doing 40.

    We hit with such force that my tow hook wedged itself behind one of the spokes on his wheel and wouldn't let go. They had to call the Fire Department to bring out the jaws of life to separate the two. I walked away with minor injuries.

    Tacoma is stock and staying that way, Pickup is TBA as of now.
    None and I hope it stays that way. Been in one minor fender bender but not enough damage worth writing about. Happened at less than 5mph, slid into the back of a truck in my Jeep. Young dumb kid and following too closely, so I had it coming.

    Totalled my 2006 Victory Touring Cruiser. Like a knucklehead I was gawking at cattle on a 2 lane country road and when turned my head back forward, lo and behold a 90 deg turn3 feet ahead, and I was doing 55. I laid it down, my wife and I skid along the highway and the bike slammed into a barbed wire fence. We both walked away with nothing but road rash and my wounded pride. It was a great bike and we put 50,000 miles on it in 5 years.
