NavyNuke Posted October 31, 2019 Report Share Posted October 31, 2019 So last week a few guys snd I rode up to Crown King, AZ for dinner. On the way back about 8 p.m. the guy in front of me spooked 2 black cows out of the ditch. Running about 30mph on the dirt road a got on the brakes, but street tires and ABS decided i should keep most of that speed. I clipped the rump of the cow with the headlights on my Tenere. I didn't crash, kinda rode through the incident. After stopping, giving myself a pat down and looking around and the cows were gone. Nowhere to be seen. Bike is a bit worse for wear, about 1k in parts, but they are ordered and on the way. All at 29,830 miles and the bikes first real damage incident. I was able to tape the headlights in place and ride the 70 miles home from the incident, so at least there is that. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
