I still like the idea of having a huge truck with a bullbar, you dont even feel them [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img]
No youre talking Discotdi, thats money well spent. A good set of driving lights and a good quality bull bar is the best protection from roos. Matt
Mum and Dad copped a roo in the passenger door of their car last year, it bent the alignment of the door, so the damage was a lot worse than it looked. The had it fixed ($1300 under insurance) and a few months later they wrote it off on a patch of diesel on the Bells Line Of Road, dont you hate that. Matt

Mornin Chaps, Hope we all had a great Xmas?
Living out here in scenic Cobar i see too many roo's. The electronic shoo roos don't seem to work, the little plastic ones are a waste of money too, had then fitted to the bike for a while as i ride to work everyday and nothing changed. As already mentioned theres no substitute for a good bullbar and driving lights and plain old keeping an eye out for 'em when driving at night.
Just my .02 worth

Hit the nail right on the head Olddog. As inc said, science is good when you cover all the bases. However if you miss or fail to account for one variable the experiment is as good as useless as, regardless of whether or not the results are correct, you cant assume they are due to errors in the experimental process. The test i read seemed pretty conclusive, however out in the enviroment where the conditions on each test day can never be accurately replicated its hard to test accurately whether or not the shu-roo actually work. As for whether people who have had them fitted to their vehicles, i am sure people feel that they are doing their job, wether or not this is luck or the shu-roo actually doing its job i guess we will never no. On the other hand i am sure people with shu roos have had animal strikes, again whether or not this is bad luck or the fact that the shu roo doesnt work, is again something we will never know. I beleive the test results, agreed there may be inaccuracies in the teast method, but i think the test more than proves it doesnt work, as it is supposed to do.Quote:

Whether or not you buy one then comes down to what you feel, do you think it works or not, as i have said above aswell as olddog and others, there is no substitiute for a good bullbar, quality lights and driving in a manner which suits the conditions. Matt
Must make the bike pretty bloody heavy, though.... [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img] [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img] [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img]Quote:

How do you go cornering, doesnt the end of the bullbar scrape on the ground? 8O Matt
