Those vandals

Someone thought it would be a fun haloween prank to knock over my bike in the wee hours of Sunday morning.

I was leaving the house around 9am Sunday when I seen it. My minty clean RC on its right side. Just laying over right where it usually rests on its side stand. I quickly hurried over to assess the damage. Minimal, yet painful. Minor scuffs to the following: mirror, bar end, signal lamp, clutch cover, mid-pipe, brake pedal, and foot peg. The inner fairing that supports the marker lamp was broken. a small puddle of fuel, but no damage to the tank or plastics.

I got home around 1 am the night before and all was well.

The insurance claims officer asks, " do you suspect anyone?" I quickly responded, "suspect?" "If I knew who did this, there would be street justice, ha ha ha."
She laughed. Good news is, because its a comprehensive claim, it doesnt affect my premiums.
It could have been worse.

Re: Those vandals

Very funny eh? What a bunch of wasters, how can anyone think that's a joke?

It's probably best that you didn't catch them after the event, as you'd only get yourself in to trouble I guess.

Re: Those vandals

barstewards shame you didn't see the little scrotes do it. where i lived before I used to have a zx6 which i parked outside on the road, i'd gone out one day bike parked up as usual, when i came back it was on it's side and there was one of those 4 wheel land rover type cars parked next to it, it was pretty obvious who ever parked it knocked it over...well we waited for them to come out of where ever they were visiting and when i confronted the driver he said that the bike wasn't there when he parked up wtf!! it had been there 24 hrs +, i couldn't do much except verbally abuse the knob head which made me feel slightly better as he drove off like a frightened girl

Re: Those vandals

Some people just have no respect. I road my bike to work Saturday night and for this very reason I parked it in the loading dock. Just something about Halloween that brings out the morons.

Its jealousy - They think if they can't have something then no body should.

Scum of the earth - at least you still have her!

Re: Those vandals

I'll be submitting an estimate to State Farm soon. Since I'm doing the work myself, some of that estimate will cover my deductible. I'm really glad I have a decent policy with an outstanding provider.
