You are wrong on a lot of this, my friend. Mandatory PIP, aka "No-Fault", does not apply to motorcycles. You are not "guaranteed" anything. The state minimums are $10/20/10, and you don't just get those because you got hurt in the accident. Among other things, PIP allows medical payments to you from your own policy without a determination of fault.
Subrogation is an assignment of rights made to your insurance carrier as a provision of your policy. When fault is established, it allows them to pursue the at-fault party for reimbursement of any payments made of your policy, as well as any deductible you had to provide.
Twitchy - if you do possess motorcycle insurance, I'd call them at your earliest convenience. If the police report provides enough information, I'd also suggest that you call the other party's insurance carrier and report the claim. If you do elect to obtain the services of a lawyer, be careful to understand fully how your lawyer will be compensated. Also, keep track of everything. Whether with insurance or the lawyer, the more leg-work you do and the more fully informed you are, the better your outcome is likely to be.
I'm glad to hear that you walked away relatively unscathed, and that you were wearing proper protective gear. I hope you have a full and speedy recovery.
Edit: I've sent you an IM with the name and e-mail address of a long time FDCC member who is also a lawyer, as well as the name of another FDCC member who is an insurance professional and a person whom I hold in high regard. Perhaps they may be able to give you some advice.
