Bastard vandals

[angryjonny]

Got home (in the car) yesterday to find my bike on its side in the road with petrol oozing out of it. Immediately I assumed someone had reversed into it, but on closer inspection I found this:

...some bastard's boot-print on the seat. Some fucker kicked it over. Angry isn't the word. What the hell makes a dickhead do something like that? What do they get out of it? Apart from an ass-kicking from me if I catch them.

wankers, it's pure jealousy mate, at least no real harm has been done,

a guy i know got his bike beaten with rocks and a bat, tank, lights, mirrors, all busted, seat slashed.

you could have gotten worse but as i say you just have to look at the good side and realise that you have something that they are too stupid to ever own or use.

get an alarm, it may deter/scare them away from doing it again or going further with any assault on the bike.

maybe cover it when you aren't using it so they cant see what's under it, sods law is it's a lovely bike and you just cleaned it, so it pisses them off even more, out of site, out of mind.

I dont know why little wankers feel the need to do this, its is jealously, if they cant have it then you cant! no respect . Would have serious went mad if i had caught someon doing that to my bike. stupid dicks

was there much damage?

someon knocked my bike over outside a shop and they picked it up and left it there, bits missing and all, i was livid! had to cough up for the damage and i wasnt a happy bunny.

It seems angry jonny just got angrier.
People who do this sort of crime should be shot.

its why people in mancs outside the city centre park bikes sideways , with the side stand facing the wall thing,

I'd probably think about CCTV if I had to park my bike outside. Actually, I might think about it anyway...

[Jack_Cheese]

I'd definitely have cctv if i had no option but to leave my bike outside. It'd have a damn loud alarm, too.

How much damage is there?

It's superficial - scrapes on the exhaust, footrests and bar-ends. Fortunately it's a naked bike so there are no pricey bits of fairing to replace. It also appears to have taken a chunk out of the road where the handlebars hit the ground.

Same thing has happened to me. It's pathetic... these are the same sort of waste of life social-security leeches that threw that dog off the roof of those flats a few days ago

We're forced to tolerate this sort of crap. If the asshole was caught he would only get 10 hours community service.

The punishment should fit the crime. He/she should be made to pay cash for the repairs AND £5 per hour for each and every hour the bike is not in original condition. So, if it takes a week to get the bike fixed, he should pay £840 as an appology to you. Then his name, photograph and full details of the crime, sentence and 'appology' payments paid to you should be printed on the front page of the local free rag for all to see, including his F*#k-wit associates.

A similar thing happened to me a few years ago. My bike was next to my front door, hidden behind a big fence. One evening, I heard some kids running past outside, didn't think any more of it until I went outside at around 10pm. They'd managed to push the bike - over - the side stand!! I found it lying on its left hand side with the stand still up! It was quite a cold evening which may explain why the alarm didn't go off! The one time I needed it to work it didn't!
The managed to smash the top part of the fairing, but that was enough!!

It was things like this that led me to leave the UK. And I don't regret it!! I lost my wallet on Saturday night, and called the Police and was told it had been handed in with everything still there. Its restored a little faith in humanity for me!!

OK, I'll admit that I'm new around here, but having read a few threads I'm seeing double standards...

It seems that smashing a wing mirror whilst filtering and escaping is OK, but someone kicking over a parked 'bike and escaping is not OK.

I'm not saying that everyone is guilty of it, it's just what I'm seeing.

Sorry to hear you've been the victim of vandalism Angry, but as you say, at least it's a naked 'bike so not as costly as it might have been.
