[QUOTE="SacramentoMike, post: 1313591, member: 11508"] I've hit a bird too, and I've wondered about this. With the small profile, you wouldn't really think moto/bird impacts would be so common. Or maybe bird vs. car impacts would be [I]more [/I]common. My theory is the bigger vehicles make more of a "bow wave" that birds ride over or around, where a moto just slices through the air, straight to the um, victim. (This theory does not apply to deer, however. [IMG]https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif[/IMG] ) So how many have hit a bird with a car? What's the count, car or truck versus motorcycle on bird fatalities? [/QUOTE]
