Don't know
Here's the story:
I was working a project close to the house (125 miles) so a co worker said he was going to drive. I decided this was a opportunity to ride some great two lane road. After the project was complete I went home early in the morning. I get home and my cell rings they have an emegency at the project so I hop on the bike and start back its 4:00 pm when I leave. About hour later i'm crusing up the two lane its winter so it's almost dark I've got the cruise on 60mph listening to the radio and enjoying the ride. Out of the corner of my eye I see a streak of something I know instinctively I know its a dog. No time for a brake. Next thing I know the front tire hits the dog and goes over then the back tire hits the dog and goes over. The handle bars wobble but the bike settles and then the realization starts to set in my stomach stats to tighten. several moments pass now I become aware that The cruise is still on and the radio is still playing. It's dark there is no place to pull off so I go 10 miles to the next town and stop. Nothing Blood or Hair on the bike as far as I can see Only damage is the skirt on the front fender is bent.
A very scarry experence.
