Helmet / Bug horror stories

oneyunguy · 05-01-2009, 01:15 AM

I thought it would be neat to start a thread to hear the stories of folks and the bugs and crap they encounter with their helmets.

I will start. First off, I find it real hard on a full face to keep the visor down, just isn't me. Rather have the shades on and feel the wind. So this particular day I was riding my 89 Yammy Virago 920 down the highway doing about 140kms and a wasp came flying right into my helmet on the left side. BUGGER!!!!! Amazingly I never got stung once, never mind a few times, before I could slow down safely and pull over and let the f*&^r out!
