i got completely f'd when i bought my 500 from something like this.

The crate it came in was completely destroyed.  looks like the crate gave way while on a fork lift because i could see where the forks gashed my swinger, bent my rear brake hydraulic push rod, ripped a massive hole in my seat, and busted my plastics.  it was HSF Holland.  they said there was no way to value the bike so i got nothing. 

Damn dude, you must have been mad as hell! Sorry to hear that. Any more to the story?
