Damn, sorry to hear that man, glad you're OK besides the scrapes and bruises. It could have turned out a lot worse.

Last year I was driving from on the 405 from LA down to OC and around 3am, not much traffic, a coyote runs out on the freeway right under my car, it died instantly and the underside of my car was damaged and overheated, had to pull over and wait for a pick up. The radiator and coolant was leaking everywhere. These things are unavoidable. There's no way we can swerve around them at that speed since that would be even more dangerous for us and other road users.

yea, there was nothing i could do , so quick. although i might have made it if i was not on 1 wheel. just bumped over him. the bike does have an electronic steering dampener, i have hit potholes and landed wheelies with the front crooked before, and the dampener corrected it fine. but it was not a factor this time, just the front going up more , and me going off the back. still better than hitting a car though. and flipping over the bars , tumbling.
