I don't get it.......first you say you hit a turkey (animal abuser), then you say it hit you.
What kind of relationship are you in?:o
Good news though, you didn't go down.
You might want to give those under-roos a good wash'n;)
the anothe night i was about a half mile from home and i was going a little faster than i probabley should have, when all the sudden my exhaust must have frightened a group of turkeys and they flew out in front of me. i hit only one doing about 65mph, it hit the windshield of my xb9r and then rolled up and hit my face and riped my visor off. i didnt crash, but scared the **** out of me. ****in gobbles.

Bummer. Well, at least you're okay. Worst meeting so far with an animal I've had, I was full lean in a 90 and ran over a rabbit that bolted out. Bounced off road and low-sided into a grass field. Busted a few birds too, but I worry about deer. Guess that's the trade-off of the great twisty country roads around me.
awww I can imagine how you must feel towards them. two weeks ago I was on my way to work and about a half mile away from there I noticed somethin in the corner of my eyes dashing from the woods onto the road. sure enough it was a dumb wild turkey. I was going about 60-65 mph and had to apply my brakes slowly so my wheels wouldnt lock. damn bird made my heart skip a beat.
white meat dark meat its all turkey glad your ok
Yeah that's horrible. For the turkey of course. We have to remember we're in their backwoods. But glad you ALL(riders listed above) are okay.
Cheers to better/safer days
Hmm, this gives me an idea for a thread.
Driving home the other day I was pretty relaxed, mind was off in never never land when a moose jumped out of the woods and ran along side. I instantaneously swerved into the lane, luckily there was no traffic.
Simple math: Me + bike = 650lbs.
full grown bull moose = 1200lbs.
1200 - 650 = sucks to be me.
well tin man guess you have no HEART afterall my friend :D
If i had a dollar for every time I heard that I would have a new 1125CR.... ;)
