Nasty Assault....

[CheckpointChcky]

What a great thread! Entertaining stories here.

The only one I have to recount happened a few years ago. Still not POSITIVE what hit me, but my best guess is that it was a burrito thrown from a passing van full of kids. Hit me square in the forehead and almost took myself and my passenger out.

Very, very Anchorman.

Oh my goodness! I don't whether to laugh or gag!

Lots of bug guts for me, but luckily no birds or burritos. Worst thing that happened to me was a wasp got into my FF helmet while riding. I was able to pull over and get my helmet off before getting stung.

Chucky, it's ok, you can laugh. it's funny now that I think about it, but I was furious when it happened.

Knight, I would take a burrito over a wasp, hornet, or bee in my helmet any day! There are three things in life that reduce me to a squabbling 5 year old girl; spiders, anything with a stinger, and the Cleveland Browns!

Whilst wearing 1 piece leathers on a hot day I had the zip partially down and was on a multi lane highway in London I was passing a car and the guy flicked his lit cigarette out of the window, it went down the front of my leathers, I was unable to stop so tried to put it out by punching myself in the crotch repeatedly, must have been a funny sight.

My first DEER ran into the right engine guard, flipped up an broke the mirror and wind shield and dispatched me!

Someone explain that. I was doin about 70 in California mid day and a small bird gave his life as he flew into the right front do my fairing. The bulk of his lifeless body slid over my shoulder but a couple dozen secondary (the small ones that still look like a bird feather, only smaller) showed up on the space between my speaker cones and the black grate that covers them......no holes in the speakers. Almost like a magic bullet. Pulled most of the feathers through the grates....

Here us a question, how do you take the speaker grates out so I can get the rest?

[Deer Slayer]

I blew the Yellow feather out with an air hose nozzle. Speaker bottom is open and all stuff should go out the bottom.
