DEER HUNTING
Hello Seth I am glad you are OK I was looking at some of your post last night in which you were shooting a 50caliber rifle and your brother was shooting the 50 and brought down a doe. My name is Ric Jost and we chatted awhile back at the Minneapolis Spinal Cord Center I ask you about your bike and you said I could try it out well that didnt work out but after seeing your bike I went out and bought one an 2013 limited I have traded that bike in and now have an F3s Im just waiting for the isci handbrake. Also the VA did provide me with the AirHawk R cushion If you were not abel to get one you can pm me and I will see what we can do.hopefully this wasnt a hijack of a thread. ric

deer damage
I also am thankful you are ok Setho. We have quit riding after dark in southern Illinois because of the deer. We have a hunting cabin on the farm and hunters come from several states to hunt a trophy. They do a lot of damage. I hit one last weak in my company truck.

Glad to hear your ok. It could have been much worse. As stated by others, the Spyder can be repaired. It seems the deer are everywhere these days.

It did die, broke its front legs smoked its dome

Glad you're ok bro. Did you call 911? I know, that's a sick comment.

nah, that is what I do for a living, the county south of me does not patrol the north end, it was off the road and dying.
I was more concerned with making it back home.
Its running good, just missing some fender and a air intake, I got to dig a part of it out of the engine compartment, I think I got some plastic on the header pipe.

i, like everyone else, am glad you are ok and came out with only minimal spyder damage and no personal damage. This is something totally unfamiliar to me. The fact you hit twice and were seriously injured in one is kind of startling to me. The one thing i am pretty sure of around here is not running into a deer. Even in up in the mountains we really dont have any around L.A. makes me double think where i would want to ride my spyder or especially my bike!

For those who may not be aware, which I wasn't until just a few years ago, deer and other such wildlife are most active right at dusk. If you see a deer be on the lookout for others. They are not solitary animals so you'll likely encounter at least two if not more, or none. Very seldom will there be just one around, although that may be all you see at a particular moment.
