Hornet deer advoidance unit
Asked the wife to buy me a Hornet for my bike for my BD .live in the jersey pinelands and dodge deer daily . The thing has gotten some good reviews so I thought maybe it will save my tail one day . Have a 05 FLHTC . Anyone have one mounted on a bagger .that might suggest a good location . I was looking at the crash bar alongside my lowers but I'm thinking that might limit its effect to one side . under the headlight would be out of sight but then i wouldn't get the 45degree angle to the road surface . Just thought someone out here might have found a good location that it won't look goofy . Thanks in advance for comments Ft

I know ,I know , god knows what may work !!!
Early summer a guy lives a mile or so down the road . within sight of my house clips one at 12 noon on a 1100 v star loud pipes sunny day broken shoulder blade . my wife got her fourth in 5 yrs with her Focus 1/2 mile from home 4500 in damage .Air activated deer horns on the front bumper .Helped a lot
A friend from work left my area 3pm on a ultra(with V&H Duals) with his wife on the back 2 miles into the pinelands from where i live . Both got messed up badly .He runs two chrome air ones on his front axel one on each side . didn't help
I 'm sure its no worse here than elsewhere in the woods but the dam things are trying to get friendlier with us lately,
I got one with a dyna leaving Laconia (03) right in Meridith coming home after 5 days riding in the hills and no sight of one .Lucky i just slid into it almost highsided over it which might have been very ugly
As long as it dosen't attract the beast ,I figure I'm trying to change the odds to my favor a little ..Plus the wife bought it which is a lot better than the old man sweaters she usualy gets me that are hanging in the closet "for when I learn to act my age" and become a respectable old man !;. mc news or RRunner gave it a decent review a couple of mts ago she ask what I wanted I handed her the rag .
(maybe that old thing she keeps telling me about is starting to set in !!???) Naw !!
