For the record, the Red Kangaroos are not Honda Candy Red.

At any rate, hitting any wild critter, from a possum to a deer to a roo to a moose on a motorcycle is not good as sethrose found out.
Stay alert out there and stay safe

I had a close call with a flock of turkeys on my way home from work last night. They were just sitting there in the road - about 10 or 15 of them - just around a right hander. Good argument for delayed apexing!

Out here it's 1 deer for every 2 people!! Needless to say riding around dusk is real DANGEROUS! Some years they have 2 deer hunting seasons, fall and spring to thin them out some.

If the tank is the same cost insurance can't pick your color! Tell them to just write you a check and order it from samurider! The tank would be cheaper from samurider then your Honda dealer anyways! Put your foot down on your agent!!

Honda wont let me fix the bike myself has to be done by a honda shop or inspected by a honda shop after the repairs. And none of the shops would inspect it because they didnt do the work. Its technically not the insurance he wrote me the check its honda and the shop that wont inspect the bike. I know there cheaper off samurider and the insurance guy was all about me fixing the bike myself. But the honda shops are A words.
