At approximately the 32 second mark, almost had a bird strike like ol' John Travolta did.

Back in August while riding near Lynchburg, TN I hit a vulture with my front wheel head-on. I was lucky that this big bird hit my bike at that location because if it had hit just about anywhere else, I probably would have been injured or went down. My lady friend who was riding behind me said that basically the huge buzzard had just taken off the middle of the road and flew right into my front tire. I was coming over a hill and came upon the road kill almost immediately with several vultures eating at it, as I was slowing down they all took flight in every direction and one of them stayed low and there was nothing I could do. It caused quite a jar on the front of my bike but I was lucky the very dead big bird bounced to the right side of my bike and she almost hit the bird as she went by. This is not the first time that I've had problems with turkey vultures and even with real wild turkeys. The vultures are huge and get off the ground very slowly and they seem to be totally unafraid of motorcycles. One of our club riders hit a wild turkey once that shattered his windshield and broke his collar bone but somehow stayed upright after the hit. Birds are just one of the common hazards that we all have to deal with. By the way, that key streamer you are using will eventually cause a permanent scratch or mar the surface of your chrome gas filler cover. Its happened to me before on a different bike just thought I would warn you about it.
