Scary Stuff man...

 

I'm quite a scared biker... Always have visor down... Cos usualy will hit insects and small debris which is quite common..

 

But a block of wood.....

[ahpoke]

wow what are the chances of that o.o

[jtzx]

Ouch!!! personally i only open visor during traffic lights.. i encounter alot of insects RIP on my visor too... which cause so much scratches to my visors..

 

speedy recovery bro!

Now, that's an eye opener.

I too had a similar experince,but lucky 1st time visor was down somehow suddenly a mynah hit my visor...

 

2nd time wearing helmet without visor ,was riding along woodlands where have alot of trees,suddenly a big moth got stuck on to my face,for a moment struggled and got it off....

 

3rd time same helmet no visor,bird dropping directly hit my face while on the move,and yes it hurt alot and swollen eyes...

 

 

Recover Well Bro.

Those people who smoke and ride will always keep the visor up right?

 

 

I tried it once... Cigarette ash flew straight into my eye...

 

Had to stop bike by the side to wash my eyes... Sibei pain.

 

Never tried again after that

Wow glad that you can see it as a funny incident. Most people would be cussing or swearing that such a freakish incident should happen to you. 6 stitches is no joke loh!

 

I've always been wearing visor down (but open faced) and have had big bugs splatting on my helmet a lot. Every few days must wipe and clean.

 

Hope you're okay by now. Incidents with the eye is always VERY dangerous. Don't play play. Take care.

[chinhuahaw]

hahaha. that one must be a drink flying bird -drunk-

[fmaorui]

I always close my visor cos the wind dries my eyes plus nobody wanna eat insects do we?

[burboy]

Saw a huge insect coming right at me... but the flow of air over the windshield lofted it up and away from my path. The 30cm or so column of air in front of it works like a deflector shield :3

 

No visor? Big windshield with good aero properties help...

[Zack83]

Hahaha... I had a fren who didn't notice there was a moth in her helmet. Wear it to ride home.. next thing I notice she was like doing the head left to right motion.. hahaha.

Stop at the road side, take off her helmet and start screaming asking me to remove it... hahahaha...

 

SO CHECK your helmet too!

[BlackBandit]

Triumph rider down! Triumph rider down! Hope you recover fast bro.

 

 

Triumph rider recovered. Now very handsome already... Hahaha!
