Riding buddy of mine who recently purchased a Valk. was T-Boned by a deer Saturday night in Arkansas. Not sure of his VRCC handle but his name is Buddy Earnest, laid his bike over throwing him over the handle bars. Bunged him up possibly dis-locating his shoulder. Bike suffered broke faring, windshield and damage to the saddle bags and engine guard and fender. He's hoping to repair the bike but unsure of parts. Deer fled the scene.

Where in Ar did this happen, I am just out of Flippin?  Forrest rats everywhere. Really got to watch for them in the Bull Shoals area.

It was just off Interstate 530 south of Pine Bluff. The deer around this area has made me stop riding at night. The Game and Fish really need to thin them out in this area.

hope he recovers fully and the Valk also  Arkansas does have some nice roads

tell your friend it could have been much worse.  Could you imagine one of these coming out of the trees at night?
