They can't even repave the shitty roads in NJ let alone install devices at $10,000 a section.

Deer whistles, whatever happened to deer whistles? Remember when you used to see them glued onto the front bumpers of cars. let's put them on our bikes. Oh yea, that's right they don't work worth a ****. I think they were made by Ronco. LOL!!

I'd be more interested in one for bugs. We have more bugs around here than deer.

Attach a windshield wiper to your fairing and instead of a blade, use a fly swatter!!!!!!

Deer will adapt to this rig just like they adapt to loud pipes, headlights, jake brakes and everything else. They are quick to get used to anything and then become oblivious to what ever it is. I've stopped and rapped my pipes up and they just look at me unconcerned. Just my .02 worth.

I think a better idea would be to take all the people on welfare and the 2 year unemployment band wagon and line the highways with them to warn us. At least that way I wouldn't feel so bad about supporting all of them. Plus they are already getting paid so what the hell.

I agree 100%. While in Arkansas last year I watched a doe cross the road about 200 yards ahead of me, I slowed down to 1st gear and idled by while she just stood about 20 feet off the road. She didn't seem that concerned in me what so ever.
