when on one's bike one must be aware of all hazards, especially the unexpected! Geez, freaking ducks shouldn't be allowed to fly over road space!
Love to see insurance claim wording.
Stuff everything...I've always got my bike.
I once borrowed my mates WRX and hit a duck at 190kmh. I looked in the mirror and all I could see was a huge cloud of feathers behind me. The duck was ripped in half.
A friend from Ireland, hit a seagull on a 2smoker, at speed. Had to get surgery, on his arm, to get the beak removed from his bicep. Quite a few stitches too. He wondered what had hit him. Pulled over and reckons the smell and mess was gross. Guts blood and feathers everywhere.

Shaken, not stirred in the shakey city!
Lol, you should see Kelvin vs PukekoSilly buggers at this time of year tho... Had a pair walkin across the road in front of me one night when I was in the car, would have been all good if they both stayed at ground level but one had to take off which took out my grill and proceeded to lay is guts all up my bonnet, windscreen and roof... They cause lots of accidents esp with about 10 cute little ducklings wandering behind them across a state highway

Built for speed, not for comfort
As long as the death was still Stevie Wonder duck's. Otherwise it might be you smelling rully rully bad....
Have heard hideous stories about the stink of splattered birds and critters. I'd hate to hit anything like that myself as I have a seriously weak stomach when it comes to stench - it would be added to by the chunder in my helmet if I couldn't get it off in time!
Glad to hear nothing too bad happened! Last time I was beaned in the helmet with a duck, I ended up falling off my bike! (Damn ninja ducks) At least this time you made sure of it the beggar - sucks about the damage and mess though!
Everytime I hear about incidents with ducks, I always end up with flashbacks to my encounter!![]()
