I hate thugs

[cigarsarge]

Well I rode my bike to a local mall to do a little shopping today. When I came out I noticed my seat was not sitting properly on the frame.

Closer inspection revealed some shithead thug had tried to rip it off my bike...I mean litterly rip it off. Fiberglass fragments were lying on the ground next to the bike.

Where the seat pan locks onto the frame to secure the seat was destroyed. The fiberglass was broken about six inches across the seat. The tounge that mounts the rear of the seat to the fender was bent and my fender was scratched.

Well I knew a buddy of mine that sidelines in motorcycle repair was off work...So I called him up. We went to work on the seat pan with some fiberglass repair stuff he had. We fixed everythig except for the scratch on the fender. We'll get to that this weekend.

Looks like it will only cost me a little over $150 to fix everything. It could have been worse.

Sorry to hear that Sarge. That kind of stuff really pisses me off!!

In OK I walked out to my car and found someone broke the driver side window and stole nothing in the car!! Put me out 150. Damn thugs

[Dickson]

Those sound like wannabe thugs to me.
Sorry to hear of the misfortunes guys.

Sarge what are you riding for a bike?

Sarge what are you riding for a bike?

03 Yamaha Road Star...It's a work in progress. I've lowered it a bit, put a Corbin Stinger seat on it, a Memphis Shades windshield is on order, hardbags after that.

It's been a slow go doing all that. It seems like every time I save enough money to put into it a necessity pops up. The incident yesterday set me back a little as well as buying a new battery for it the day before... But I'll get it finished eventually.

I don't know much about bikes, but the scratch on it might mean that someone hit it with a car, causing the seat to break, maybe causing the bike to fall and break the seat in the process. Like I said not a n expert but the scratch is the weird part

It did not hit the ground...The scratch on the rear fender came from the seat mount that was twisted in an attempt to rip off the seat.

It appears someone stood over or beside it and pulled straight up and then twisted the seat. The person or persons that did it were pretty strong.

At night the mall is full of little gangster wannabes. Guess they come out in the light during spring break.

I checked and there has been more than the usual acts of vandalism and thefts this week at the mall.

That sucks! Pos thiefs and vandals really get me PO'd. I have a cheapo Mongoose Wallyworld for ridin around town. Wouldn't last 20 mins on the trail, but rides good on the street( front and rear suspension). Sometimes it gets left locked outside for a week and nobody has ever f'd with it. Why bother?

[guado]

I am with you 100%.

I always wonder what I would do if I caught them in the act...

[Dickson]

The first thing I would do is call my lawyer and tell to meet me at the local PD. After that, all is fair in love and war!!!!!!!

[Bassfever]

THATS A DAM SHAME. Sorry to hear that.

[cigar no baka]

Sorry to hear that Ken, I hate thugs with a passion as well. My car has been broken into at least twice, maybe three times, I've lost count. Always stealing shit and leaving me with broken glass and hundreds of dollars of repair work. If it were up to me, a public beating would be in order. And the victim would have the option of delivering the beating personally.

[Dickson]

Nine times out of ten, you kick the shit out of wannabe's they learn a small lesson. Don't mess with that guys stuff or I'll get him back. Coward's in both aspects. Now mind you I would never condone doing anything like this but..............

Ken,

You and I both know that, you will prevail. I just sucks that some ahole wannabe coward rained on your parade. In the end Karma always prevails. I don't know you well but, what I do know of you. You have more good karma than bad. Always rely on Karma my friend.
