One of these.
I was exiting the parking garage in the building I work at behind a car and the magnetic sensors didn't pick me up on my Tuono. The barrier started raising and the gate arm began to lower.... Luckilly it was a solid ramp that raised up (not a bar, like shown above) and I was traveling in the opposite direction than the arrow in the picture... I had to fuckin gas it & jumped the damn thing. Definitely got my attention!

I don't know if it's strange but I killed about 15,000 butterflies last Spring at the Gap. Ok maybe it wasn't QUITE that many but it was a lot!!
They were quite distracting to drive through...

More birds than I can count. Birds are easy. They just deflect off.
My *strangest* hit was that I clipped a moose with my hardbag about 20 miles west of Jackson, Wyoming. I didn't go down. A foot more to the left and I would have. He was standing on the yellow stripe in the middle of the road and it was dusk out in the mountains. VERY hard to see.
