Dweezel Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 I hit a giant bumble bee in my throat, right below the helmet and above the jacket. I was going about 80 so I feel your pain. I've also hit a bird in my left arm at about 75-80 but that amazingly wasn't so bad, I think the bird must have been going the same direction I was Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NinjaNick Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 I've gotten stung by yellowjackets at over 80mph before. Pulled over and pulled it out of my neck. Hurt like a mo-fo.Random objects though I've been hit by a lot at speed, but like B-KING said, toughen up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DangBruhY Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Yeah, I've had my fair share of insects slamming my neck, knees, arms, chest at 80+ mph. It SUCKS! I'm allergic to bees and one time I had one go in my visor. Didn't sting me, but scared the living shit out of me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kawi kid Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 thats the worst feeling when you are riding just after you take off and you see something out of the corner of your eye and its like a wasp or bee walking around in your helmet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max power Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 I took a horsefly or junebug or some big ass thing to the forehead at around 70 back when I was young and dumb. It about gave me whiplash. Always wore a helmet after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWing'R Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 thats the worst feeling when you are riding just after you take off and you see something out of the corner of your eye and its like a wasp or bee walking around in your helmetI learned real quick to "bring your helmet in the house" and DON'T leave it in the garage! My wife and I hopped on the scoot for a ride early one evening, got about a 1/2 mile down the road and I hadda pull over cause something was ticklin my left ear, pulled over, took off the helmet and there was biggest damn wolf spider I ever saw INSIDE my left ear cup! If I hadn't stopped and that son-of-a-bitch had decided to bite me or try and crawl in my ear we could have had one hell of an accident!! Take the helmet in the house!!!!!!!!!!!

Zoner1320 Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 The wife and I went to the inlaws (couple miles away) W/O helmets. I saw a carpenter bee coming right at me. Now since the wife was on the back i thought the most loving thing to to show her why we wear helmets is to dodge the bee. Smacked her right in the forehead at about 45 MPH. I laughed but she failed to see the HUMOR. Lessoned learned she said.See guys its all about sacrifice's we do to make them see the humor in life. I do what I can..

If you told someone that and they had never ridden they probably wouldn't believe you, its weird, I've swerved to miss a big incoming bug before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warpspeed Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 I got stung by a bee on the leg yesterday, just above the knee, It musta stung thru my pants because I doubt it could have crawled clear up my jeans......I'm semi-alergic to bee stings and was going down the road slapping my leg hard as I could......feels like someones stuck a needle into me for about a hour then they itch like none other.....still itches.how do all those harley riders go around with just glasses? even at 50mph those bugs are still a b!tch......makes you appreciate your helmet when they splatter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaNick Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 Oh it's funny too when I see them stopped and they have to wash their faces because they have bugs and their guts stuck all over their face. The ladies love that look I hear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
