Titan VS Owl

I was driving home last night from the motoX track, this damn huge a$$ Owl flies outta the bushes and tried to take on the mighty Titan at 65mph..
Needless to say he lost, but he didn't go down without a fight!
He left some nice claw marks on the hood, almost took a wipper blade with him and dented the roof!
I swear that thing sounded like a brick on impact that sucka was BIG!!
I did find some feathers in the front # plate on my dirt bike too!!
From what it's gonna cost to fix the paint on the hood and the dent on the roof, that sum b!tch better be DEAD!!

You are the second TT member I know that has battled an owl! The first guy had significant hood damage and his hood protector didn't do its job against the owl.

Birds are no joke when hit at speed. My brother was on a motorcycle and had a pheasant fly into him. It knocked him nearly flat back on the seat doing about 40 MPH. Through some miracle he shook it off and got his hands back on the bars. He still had feathers and various bird related goo on him when he got home.

Once my father, in his younger years, chased a vulcher in a milk truck. He had it floored and the vulcher was a couple of feet in front of the windsheild. The truck was such a pos that even while floored, could not hit the vulcher. It then proceded to take a load off its mind all over the windshield. My father said his friend also let go of alittle sumthin in the passenger seat.

I hit a pigeon yesterday. Some feathers - no dings. So there's my contribution to the demise of avian creatures.
