Worst bug incident I had was a bee under my watchband. Since he couldn't release he kept pumping the venom in my arm.
I used those old drum brakes to their max getting over to the side of the road and got him shook out and rmoved the stinger.
Had to pull over again a few miles up the road because my wrist was swelling so much i had to take the watch off. By the end of the day I think my arm was twice the size.
I was worried that taking such a big shot of the bee juice that I might become allergic to the sting but never had a problem again. Always wonder about these guys riding without glasses though. Some of those bugs feel like bullets. |

I hit a falling Hickory nut or Walnut with my chest going 60 mph. That sucked. lol!
Oooo, heres another good one: It was getting dark. I was nearing home on my bike. I was wearing a mesh bright orange pullover. When IT happened! lol! I saw it coming but there was nothing I could do about it. A BAT! It hit my shoulder and got stuck in the orange mesh! Akkkkk!! Its foot or something kept rubbing my neck! Ewwww! I pulled in the driveway, threw the kickstand down and began to scream and dance around trying to get gear off. lol! |

Yellow jacket in the jacket. Counted six stings before I could get pulled over and the jacket off. The stings only hurt slightly worse than the punches I was raining on myself trying to kill it! Then the little bastard flew off! I was on my way to the Dr. for a check up, he said "your blood pressure is a bit higher than usual"!
We call our buzzards turkey vultures around here, and I barely ducked as it bounced off my 1125r windshield, and then my shoulder. I got low enough so it was a glancing blow, not a direct hit. It flew straight out of the woods down low right out in front of me, no time to swerve or even get my hand on the brake.
If I had a naked bike it would have hurt bad, I'm sure.
The bastard crapped on my 'stich, NASTY! |

I've had bruises on my arms and chest from bug strikes, been caught on the interstate in thunder storms with just a t-shirt but nothing has ever even come close to hurting like catching a house fly with my left eye at ~10mph.
I had my visor up while stopped several cars back at a traffic light. Traffic had just started moving and I was reaching up to close the visor when **WHAM**!! I didn't have clue what had just happened. Pulled off into the first parking lot and used the bike's mirror to see it was a fly and fished most of the crap out. My eye was still killing me like there was more to remove but I couldn't see it with the mirrors on the bike. I went home and found a fly leg sticking out of my eyeball just above the lower lid. That was no fun. |
