Time for a new supermoto fender..
 

and a few other parts too.

I had a forest rat take my front wheel out and about 40mph. The KLX crashes a bit better then I do. Just a little of road rash and a nice gouge below the knee cap. It was a slow ride home but the little KLX did the job.

I believe it will be about $400.00 to $500.00 to get this thing back close to where it was. (mint) It nailed my pelican case but it survived just fine. (scuffed up)

The deer was running away from me when I saw it and before I could do anything it moved over and took my front wheel out. It was a small deer but big enough to inflict some pain.

I was just talking to my friends about how motorcyclist hate forest rats 1 hour earlier. [sm=outcold.gif]

Ouch! glad that the soreness will be minimal tomorrow for ya.
I would have used the tool in the pelican case and draped that little bugger home!

First and foremost,this is proof that a klx isn't an effective hunting device,Glad you didn't get hurt bud,a few scuffs and you rode home,better than an ambulance ride.:D

A mate of mine used to ride up beside kangaroos on a dirtbike and tap them on the head with a baseball bat with 12" nails hammered through it, made the bike a very effective hunting machine ;)

I was racing(GSXR 600)at Summit PointWV yesterday, from the third row got a decent start, hurtling down the 1/4 mile to turn one at 100mph. Suddenly I see hands fly up of the riders in front, I get off the gas and instinctively put my hand up, then I see why, a yearling (Forest rat:D) is standing, (middle of track)transfixed on the 30 odd riders flying in its direction. Luckily, the penny dropped and IGTFOOT. The race proceeded without further incident. I have heard horror stories of deer and rider incidents on the track, animals being split in two etc.

Yep,
them deer can wake you up!!!

Here is my fender that I had ordered 6 months ago and it never made it. I called the order in this time.
I found a on-line place for parts and ordered everything I needed. Without the pelican case, I believe $300.00 will bring it back up to top shape. Pretty good price compared to a sportbike wreck. [sm=smiley29.gif] If I can stay away from the doctors office it will be a total win on this one. Close to a win as I ever get.;)

Glad you’re going to be OK.
I just returned from a trip down the 101 (Astoria to San Francisco). The Oregon Coast is the most beautiful place in the lower 48 INHO. I can definitely see how those little deer could pose a serious problem, with the brush so thick off the road-side they are impossible to see until they step out in front of you. Saw more novice riders on new BMW’s (with full packs) then I ever could have imagined.

unless you have supermoto wheels the supermoto fender looks weird..... get the Tecnik from acerbis....

This was about 100 miles inland then the coast on Clackamas River Drive. I never thought to much about deer out there. (only bigfoot);)

I believe the fender will look just fine on my bike.
