Bug Screen Splat

After work last night, I had to do the 2 hour ride across Gauteng from Krugersdorp to Benoni. The weather was good so my first choice was my Vespa GTS300ie. The ride was great but then the return trip late in the evening was another issue altogether.

All I can say is thank goodness for the Vespa’s large bug screen. Along the country roads the lights from the vehicles attracted all sorts of flying insects and when I came cruising along all I could hear was the splatting of insects like rain hitting my bug screen. Now for the clean-up. If I remember correctly, I once heard about somebody who studies windscreens splatter and can identify what type of insects by the splat remains.
