Not good Mick, I hit a 4" x 4" 6ft long piece of wood which had obviously fallen off the back of a lorry, fortunately it didnt do any damage! I wasnt very happy! :angry015:

I've had a strap and buckle flick up off the car in front and go straight through the windscreen of my 2 day old car, wasn't best pleased, also hit a lump of wood on a roundabout 6 months ago which buckled 1 of my rims :sad: just call me lucky :smiley:

I believe its a Dunlop Sportmaxx though.

Thanks m8 but I’ll pass, I’d rather keep em both Goodyear’s. Nice offer though, :drinking:

I know that feeling too, I hit a huge log at about 55mph in the pouring rain once.
Completely destroyed a Prodrive Alloy, Sump Guard and trashed my suspension geometry on my Scooby :sad:
The sound at the time of impact had me convinced I'd wrecked the entire front end. I hardly dare get out to look. :scared:

That's a bummer, Mick! But at least no-one was hurt.
I won't hijack this thread but will post separately later, but I witnessed a truck taking out a biker (nice R6) last Friday morning. I stopped of course.
VC:
locking nuts on those space savers is a must, very very desirable
try and buy one and you'll see what i mean
