Don't say a word to the insurance agency. You are already safe with her admitting fault and getting cited at the scene. Do Not Talk! You do not have to say anything. More you say, the worse it can get, your fault or not.

Glad you are okay.

This too.

Oddly, the at-fault party's insurance contests the accident when they have no chance in hell of winning. Sounds weird, but what they attempt to do is negotiate less of a payout, by threatening litigation against your insurance company. Wasting time and money. It's a sad state of affairs, but not much is required from you. Your insurance company should be able to handle it well. It will take longer this way, sorry to say.

Her agent saying "she's getting a lawyer" is probably a crock. The agent's litigation team is going to try and reduce the liability.

What you can do is document pain, injury, and losses and hand a copy over to your agent. Don't stop, just keep finding things to add to the total. Might also try getting estimates of bike's value (before). Something that would include all the accessories. Otherwise, dig out receipts for anything bought. Maybe get five estimates and turn in the highest two or three.

This is the picture I get from a litigation/accident lawyer team down in Florida that handles motorcycle accidents.
