Down the hill this am to pick up a couple of glow plugs for my 300SD. Big Suzuki still apart, took my NX650 that handles like a bicycle compared to the Suzi..
Coming back up the hill on the chicken strips, laid over doing about 50 on a big left sweeper, I spot an enormous bird, must be a vulture, carrying a snake in its beak. It's about four, maybe five feet off the road, crossing a couple of hundred feet in front of me, I just about have time to think "cool" when I notice it's buddy about five feet from my left mirror.. I tuck in and cringe to the low side, feel and hear feathers slap across my helmet, and its over and gone..
Never thought I might need buzzard bars on my bike helmet.
