was following a car in the rain at 80mph when it ran over something in the road, the rear wheel flicked it into the air, through my screen, and into my chest. result: broken screen, cracked ribs, lots of swearing.
Tunrned out to be a plug in mobile phone charger!

The mirrors are '06 Kawasaki 600 Ninja heads on '01 R1 arms, very stable, very clear, no more vibrating images!
