brandon - you are totally doing the right thing.
no way should the owner have to pay anything! not a dime!
if i let my friend ride my bike and he crashed it, then i would expect him to pay for it. if we're talking assumptions here, then i would assume he would take financial responsibility for using my property.
i had a roomate who dropped some heavy object on my car. it even put a small dent in my fender. the guy never even offered to fix it.
bottom line: he borrowed it, he busted it, he should fix it.
(sorry brandon...don't mean to sound too harsh...this is one of my pet peeves... )
ps - it would be nice if your friend would let you make payments though. i had to sell all my stereo gear to get my car out of impound and it totally sucked!
