Bike damaged at CD Rally

[yungatart]

My son's bike got tampered with at a biker's funeral...kill switch engaged, bike put in gear, tank scratched and a cigarette burn on the seat!!!
Nothing you can do about it!
It sux, but you can't change the fact that some people have no respect for anything/anybody!

On sat night my arse got pinched by a chick, but I was not damaged.
After a few rallys you will soon learn to park your bikes together and around your tents to discourage walk throughs.

Yeah - we tried to jam our bikes together (Beemer, Yam, Kwaka and Slowzuki). Luckily we didn't have a Honda amongst them, or they would have all been fucked.

Anyway - that is a damn asshole of a thing to do. I can't see it being accidental - not that amount of damage.

Even if it was an accident, the perp should have apologised..

Got my bike scraped at a track day by someone trying to pull in next to it.. some reasonably bad damage to the fairings, and not a word ..

They must have known cause they left in a hurry

You guys and gals were camped just below me, your spot is a good one, not as if anyone needs to walk through it to get somewhere. Those scratches are at all sorts of angles and deep, that is deliberate.

If you're 9' tall most of which would have to be legs in order to get that high and forward on the tank.

My legs cover the badges on most and it has happened to me. Not that bad but a small bit of road chip in the knee fold of goretex pants scuffed up a test bike.

Rubbish under a tank bag will do that sort of damage too.

The square bit is sus though.

You must be some kind of lanky circus freak then. He's already said no tank bag too.

[Big Dave]

Nah - you're just short. :-P

[Max Preload]

Well, that's a first... I've never been called short.

Are you seriously saying that in a normal riding position your knees are that far above the indents in the tank designed to accomodate them? You must look like a frog when riding most sprotsbikes.

Monkey humping a football is the standard description.

I'm 195cm - on older ones my knees cover some of the badges - yeah - not sure about this one.
They actually sit higher than the tank on some bikes - various harleys and standards. It was a Bonneville that I had the scuffage on - right under the Harmonica.
Modern sculpted tank sports bikes not so - but the logos tend to be more on the top.
I can't ride a B-king. Legs don't fit in the cut outs.
Don't look too bad on a ZX14 I just gave back. Ridiculous on a F4 1000.
