Don't ride west of Austin / San Antonio when dark. You will encounter them. I live in DFW by Grapevine Lake and saw what looked to be deer tracks at the lake. Now there4 are deer crossing signs north and south of the lake. When I went to Utah recently I saw 2 dead ones (big) by the road around Childress / Vernon and they never used to be there. They are thick around Jacksboro also and if you speed at night in the Big Bend area you might hit a big Mule deer, Antelope, Mountain sheep or Wild Turkey. East Texas is full of White tail. Criswell

Rev You are correct . But I was a new rider and my Ins. would go down $300.00 after the first year if I did not have any claims. My deductible is $1000.00 .It takes 5 years of no claims before my ins. would go back down. Therefore 5X300=1500 plus 1000 =2500.I only spent about $2000 fixing it . that is why I chose to go that route.If I had of been hurt worse or the bike damaged more I am sure I would have made a claim. But thanks for your input. Leaving Thursday for the Black Hills S.D.. I will leave here in the London area cross the boarder in Port Huron, to Luddingtom Michigan take the Badger Ferry across the lake then west to Spearfish . Where I am meeting my friend from Fernie BC for approx.10 days to 14 days of riding Any recommendations on camping or motels, we tend to do both. Routes we should take , things to see. We both have KLRs. If any one sees us, one Blue mine (the fastest) one red Jim's both 08s TTYL Paul ________________________________ From: revmaaatin To: DSN_KLR650@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, June 11, 2009 1:24:33 AM Subject: [DSN_KLR650] Re: KLR "DOWN" and rider too

The day I got my cast off I was back on the bike. It had about $2,000.00 Damage . I fixed it myself . I did not have any collision Ins. and I don't think the Deer did either because he did not stop to see if I was OK. > Let me know how the deer eradication goes and consider me in. > I was 50 then. > Ride safe be careful have fun. > Paul Paul, I am not an insurance expert by any means, but I have had damage repaired on more than one occasion caused by a deer. It was not the collision part of my insurance but the comprehensive side of the policy. Some one else sing out if I got that all wrong.... You should look at your policy (car/bike/etc) and see what the additional cost of comprehensive is going to be. For me in the long run, it has more than paid for itself. revmaaatin. __________________________________________________________________ The new Internet Explorer 8 - Faster, safer, easier.

Why a hunting season? Why not a bounty?

Do not visit the Black Hills without reading this excellent report: http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=465632 I go there a lot, and this report showed me a ton of stuff I didn't know.

Will be in the company of 2 F650s a new edition KLR and a KTM, blue/orange I think. We leave Cut Bank , MT on the 17th and return July 4th, 5500 miles in total. One rear tire change on the way. Will be running these dates out of Dawson. 6/22 - arrive Eagle Plains, YK 6/23 - arrive Inuvik, NWT 6/24 - arrive Eagle Plains, YK 6/25-26 D2D rally Hope to see and gab with you along the way. Don M

I'm headed to Inuvik, leaving Calgary area 25th June. How long's your trip, what color's your KLR, what state license on it? Mine's an Alberta registered '04 with a red 'canoe bag' across the rear seat and yellow soft bags. I'll be travelling w/ a BC blue '08 or '09...? I'll keep an eye out for you if there's possibility of an "overlap". Ed
