On the way into work today, was presented with a crappy set of options- pick one of 4 deer on the road to hit at 45 mph or put it down and pray- so I put it down. Buell vs deer- the buell won, heh- skidded straight into one; cops got it I guess.
Damage:
Right mirror: toast
Rear brake pedal: toast
K&N filter for forcewinder- wrecked
Forcewinder piping- scraped up and dented a good bit
Race headers- scraped up, not dented in though.
Not a mark to the paint, I think
Thank God for good gear- ended up with a skinned knee, loss of my right thumnail- not sure how that happened, and a need to get some new gloves. All in all a very lousy start to a morning.
Watch out for deer, everyone!

Man, that sucks. Glad you're OK for the most part and nothing major to either of you!

Wow, now you know the number one killer of motorist is deer. Because of that, each fall I feel justified in a little self defense. BAM!!! Go get one.
