Bugged up visor

[Dodger]

Did a ride from Wellington to Stokes a few weeks back at around 9pm.
On arriving at home I spent the next 5 minutes picking dead and dying beetles off my gear

Also the fattest and juiciest moth I've even seen had face planted into the centre of my headlight.

Beat This! 10am, just outside of Taihape.



I rode for half an hour like that, and was wondering why it had gone so dark.

That is significant bug splat Jim

So....you are telling me that...the 'said couple' cleaned your bike for you? am i correct in my assumtion?....and if this be thy truth, thou shall let no man speakth wrong of thee who live by Bethleham (fuck i sound like that priest you speak of)....

Indeed they did...wouldnt let me near it in case I dirtied it again...I'm surprised they let me ride away on it! They gave me the "a bike is for life, not just for chrstmas" look and I promised to up the tlc effort, otherwise I'm certain I would have lost me bike.

"cheap" mods...careful, I dont want to tart the thing up like a kawachopper! You'll be sticking firkin tassles on me bike soon!

Not a bad effort, but I think you need to diversify a bit. A smattering of damselflies, a wasp, a bumblebee, possibly a butterfly or a moth or two, and a couple of cicadas would round the collection off nicely.

There's some beauties on there mate. I especially love the ones rammed into the vents, how many of the blighters make in into the helmet??? A good effort...the engineering side of me starts to come out now thinking of some way we can grid the visor to take an average for some form of rating system. :spudbn:

That effort was after 3 seperate cleans on the way to Nelson last clean-up was at Springs Junction What ever the sod in the middle was it spread like oil before setting

Worst I've struck was what I think was a Hu Hu (sp?) beetle late at night when it hit it sound like a .22 shot in side my helmet & spread like an egg over the visor emergency stop to clean the mess up

lols a rating system coverage/density/composition
