No kidding. Back when I was riding motorcycles, I got hit with a june bug on my hand doing about 70mph. Hurt like hell.
I once owned a GS450 Suzuki cafe racer.
It had small wind shield. It was excellent on acceleration. You could hit 90 MPH very quickly.
Ability and sanity are not the same.
I did not do that many times.
My younger brother was a bit more daring than I am.
He survived some amazing catastrophes. He died of cancer (3rd round) last November.
I have a friend who was knocked of his bike on the highway by a bird strike - a vulture. He suffered but fully recovered…he was only wearing one of those brain bucket half helmets so his face got some serious road rash and permanent disfigurement to his nose too.
