No nitpicking,but its a P200NS.
Crashes like these on a Motorcycle are pretty common.
Just give a fast bike to a average Joe,and there is a high possibility of ending up like this.

Yes it is a 200ns as the Indian Duke only comes in Neon orange color. Pretty bad accident that.

This accident occurred to my friend in his fully modded and brand new swift an year ago. The place is ECR ,known for it's high accident rates! He was doing a good 100kmph when a sharp object punctured the Swift's left tire. The tire burst , he lost control, went off road and crashed onto a Tree. The car got totalled but he escaped without a Scratch!

Was he the only person in the car? Btw, ECR is a dangerous road to speed on because of the randomness of the traffic and villagers in the area. Cops are always on the lookout for speeders on ECR.

It is actually a very wise thing to click pictures just after an accident. Insurance companies do encourage this. :)

Ouch! That's really sad. Those morons will never learn how to drive on public roads. :Frustrati
BTW... You must consider your self quite lucky because most of the damage is restricted to just one panel. Ideally the company would replace that panel alone.
OMG! Govt bus of which route did this? one panel needs to be replaced. the Left front door also has scratches, but a good polish can take care of it, I hope. You need to get a left ORVM too. Please keep us posted how much you paid and how much is paid by insurance co.
