Bike knocked over (Wellington)

[Akzle]

i can lend you my shotgun, or a few angry black guys, if you do find the person responsible...

Feel for you, got off lightly though.
Had a fella back a four wheeler truck into my GSXR when it was fairly new at transport depo in AKLD. Tried to pretend it didn't happen and park somewhere else.
Apparently it made a hell of a noise though and the forkies saw him. Had just cancelled my ripoff insurance policy also two weeks earlier...
But had a great boss who ended the urban myth that your vehicle is not covered in private workplace carpark etc.
Trucking co paid out for the 3.5K to 4K cosmetic and lights damaged.

So many of the things that I want to say aren't really family viewing, but it isn't vaguely windy today and I'll leave it at that.

.

Don't hold back mate. We're all (mostly) adults here.

So how is this for funny,

I now park in Stout street CBD and some fucking cunt (I'm guessing on a scooter) moved my bike and droped it.. smashed the top fairing, mirrors gone, screen is rooted and there is a dent in my tank.......

And this is my ZX6rr

[GSW]

I'm pissed


And what it looked like

[GSW]

So if anyone saw anything can you let me know, coz I'm looking for someone to punch in the head

[nodrog:Me]

what did they drop it off?

[Paulo]

Mate that is some shit news right there, I work out in Miramar but everytime I've tried to find a bike park in the city i give up, and take my chances on a bit of wide footpath, precisely for this reason, too many scooter riders who think it's okay to sandwich in as close as possible to the next bike, They may treat their scooters like shit but unfortunately they treat everyone else's with the same disregard.
I''d argue you're better off risking a ticket in a non sanctioned parking spot then putting up with this, and if the council try and ticket you show them these photos of what happened the last two time you parked "legally"

[Mike.Gayner]

Fucking unbelievable that someone would do this and just fuck off without a note or anything. God damn that makes me angry.

Everyone has access to a notebook these days, just turn on the notebook, type your note and leave it under the windscreen wiper.

(tongue in cheek, really though that sucks, I know your pain. Happened to my motard, except someone undid my reservoir tank and poured in bourbon, smashed my clutch lever off and bent my handlebars)

[buggerit]

Sorry to see that,there are some scum out there.
The problem seems to be in part, the lack of bike parks that those council morons promised.
You would think they would encourage bikes to reduce congestion etc, I suppose its more about revenue from carparking
and fuck everything else.

[mossy1200]

Man that stinks.
I cant believe people don't report these things.
If I spotted someone knock a bike down try leave without a note idd be offering them a piece of paper.

Couple of times when bike parks are full of scooters ill park in a car park pay and leave ticket under passenger strap.
Idd rather pay than have damage if im just stopping for a cake or coffee.
Never had the ticket removed or stolen ( so Far).
If the trailers on the bike it takes up a whole car park anyway.

That really sux dude. Could you tell they had moved it? if so, how, I'd imagine you had your steering locked. Also was it on the ground when you found it?

No, again they had the courtesy to pick it up, they may have to to get their bike out from under it. And the steering was locked.
I could tell where it had hit the ground as the paint from the engine cover (blue) was embedded in the tar seal beside the bike
