Not ON the bike, but out of the sky : heading to work early one Sunday morning along the M62. Empty, I was on my GPZ750 so decided it was an opportunity for a flat out. I was looking down at the clocks ,125 mph, she's still going well, looked up and there's an A10 fighter , extremely low coming direct at me at a very fast closing speed ! Frightened me to death. It seemed as though it was trying to hit me.
The next day a neighbour who had connections with the RAF told me it would be a photographic bombing run. I would love to have a copy of that !
