Bike damaged at CD Rally

[reemit]

You sure it couldn't have just been a dunkard's belt buckle? Not saying that makes it any better but it COULD have been an accident. You sure it's key damage? Unusual to get shit like that at any rally, regardless of your mechanical politics.

Good point, possible, but he would be wrestling or trying to have relations with it (maybe gay Yamahas are his favorite, sorry about the mental picture ). I dont wanna get too anal about it but , There is one remote possibility that some monkey scraped the shit out of it with his tent poles. But that wouldn't be so scribbly.

you didn't happen to use a magnetic tank bag for the trip did you?

Nope all my shit was strapped on its arse end.

That is not on. Not even remotely ok, how dare someone damage a Yay-maha!
Leaves a bit of a bad taste in your mouth really. I am sorry your pride and joy was intentionally damaged, lets hope that the person/s responsible are also intentionally damaged in return.

Thx for the thoughts of recipriocal violence Mom, Fortunately this ones not really me pride and joy, though I do like it, its more like a high speed pack horse.

It could have been a belt buckle...if someone was humping the tank.....Methinks your first guess closer to the mark....

Paint it tartan and call it Rupert.

[scooute]

No, thats just a bastard of a thing to happen. What a bastard, I hope you get it sorted without spending too much, although I guess any cost is too much.

But even KB is starting to fill up with wankers, who think your bike has to be "worthy" before you are a biker. They abuse me when they see me on a scooter, then dont recognise me and shake my hand when I'm on the K100.

But I remember them.

Funny how that works eh? I think if it has two wheels your on a good thing! I got the same thing whilst on scooter. Sadly its gone now, was even cheaper on gas than my bike is heaps of fun though haha lol
Sorry to hear Reemit!!! cowardly wankers, dont worry mate karma is on your side theyll get theirs!!!

[DIN PELENDA]

Some might say the Yamahaha deserved it, especially a gay coloured one, but I just realised on getting back from the Cold Duck some cowardly bastard had keyed my tank there when I wasn't looking. I would have rather they did it when I was looking so at least I could have had some fun.
1. Did this happen to anyone else or just me?
2. Has this happened to anyone else before?

What a asshole and I know which asshole did it !!! If I see you at cold kiwi I'm going to smack you had in, you know who you are !
As we arrive to duck, we chose corner close to patriot's tent . As we got back from poker run , we got block-out by arrogant guys from sulfur city (Rotorua ) on Harley sportser and about 5 cursers . So we decide to get our bikes at back of our tent and line it up so we leave gap . Then another bike come and park it up to patriot tent and block-out bikes next to fence , it look like we did block exit . But is asshole next to fence that keyed your bike. He told me sunday morning look at this cunt blocking us off as you were at back of me. I told him not to wory, it is my mates bike and I will move it. So I did move it cos I can see how piss -of he is, it is shame he is not KB . After that I have gone to WC twice sunday morning and I know he did it then, as no one was around awake yet . Ashole is from Wellington but hey I seeing you before and we will see you again, you cocksucker!

Hey Din, Not worth the effort mate, especially if it wasn't done that way. Hey, I could have even done it myself sleep walking and tank humping . Just forget about it is best. Cheers.

Agree with Reemit here Mr Pelenda, unless you saw this dude do the damage your just gonna make yaself out to be the asshole if you front him at the next one !

No-one should care about being blocked in at the duck, sunday morning clears out pretty bloody quick, However in saying that, we do arrive early friday, set up camp, and take up as much space as we think we might need, with the bikes in a position where the foot traffic aint gonna walk into em or by them ! Ppl are learning not to set up a tent too close to a fire thats liable to blow it's guts at any time during the night also !

[Big Dave]

A small rock or sharp debris lodged between leg and tank will make those marks too.

Yes you are right , but as I reed my mite post I got so angry and I just know it is him, he didn't get good night sleep and was angry and grumpy little bugger in the morning. I have calm down now.

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

[shafty]

1. That should never ever, ever happen at a Rally.

2. Whoever did do this, should hang their head in shame as a 'biker'

[PeeJay]

Hard to see that being a "key". You would be there for 5 mins to do all those backwards and forwards and ups and downs .
More likely accidental.
Something with multiple scratchy things being dragged past eg saddlebags

Ah - unfortunately the myth of the biker family etc etc s just that - a myth.... There are a 1000 subtribes and they all pretty well hate each other ;-( I've seen much worse done by 'bkers' to other 'bikers'....
