  • Kat pet peeve

    I really "love" how the windshield redirects all the bugs to hit me square in the visor!! A bug rag is a required item fo any trip that is 10 minutes or more.

          And here I thought that getting hit by bugs was all part of riding a motorcycle. How could I have been so misguided?

          My opinion? Don't want bugs to hit you? Lose the bike, and stay in a car.

                It comes with 16" wheels, it obviously doesnt count
                90% of motorcycle forum members do not have a service manual for their bike.

                    Thanks for the link

                    wow some of you fellas really take things serious. I didn't realize this was a sesative topic. No I won’t be selling my bike because of bugs hits, that would be like cutting off my hand because I got a scratch on my finger. I work though problems, not give up and run away. As a point of reference, my previous bike evenly distributed the bug shots, it was an observation that my kat focuses them towards my visor. I didn't expect that to offend anyone.

                    A pet peeve: “ is a minor annoyance that an individual identifies as particularly annoying to them, to a greater degree than others may find it. A key aspect of a pet peeve is that it may well seem acceptable to others. “

                    Thanks to those that helped by pointing me in the right direction to a solution!!
