I find the front is chip-free, The MX-5s were worse.

The MX-5s has a more rounded windscreen and I never had a problem.

The X1/9s got through a few screens, the flatness and angle of the screen was similar to the S2K.

Mind you, they had an angular, steel nose that was very prone to gravel rash too!

Hardly statistically credible, but probably relevant.

Hey Mikey phew you were the lucky one.



Got thwacked by something big the other day, caught me on my ear. Bloody stings like, don't know if it was a stone or a fly but if it was must be dead.
That tends to happen to me quite a lot.
The odd thing is it's always the left ear and generally when I'm eyeing up some fit bird.
I've not managed to figure out how it's happening yet.
