glad your ok....my dad hit a guys brand new clothes dryer in the box that fell out of the back of the guys truck while doing 65mph.. about 8 years ago in AZ. while he was riding his Harley....he didn't go down either...but it broke his ankle and sprained his wrist...scared the shit out of him...it bent the frame and fucked up the front end,so they totaled out the bike....that was his second bike accident...after that he said he was done...after riding for 30 years...as kornfed said....amazing how people don't secure their loads.....
Glad your ok Thumper, when I rode across country in 05 on my new Chopper I was in OKC riding through rush hour traffic and a car in front of me hit a rubber block that goes between the guard rails and the posts. I was able to deflect around it so that my tire didn't hit it but it did hit my shifter peg and went under the left side frame rail kicking me way up in the air. I got it over to the side of the road and there was shreds of rubber all along the frame rail but no other apparent damage that I could see. Several months later I was having some oil leaks and the shop replaced the oil lines and we found the SS sheathing on the lines was separated. I figured it was cause from that rubber block I had hit. Here is a pic of the lines.
