Title: What do you feel when people touches your bike and fiddle around with it?
Post by: Sanjeev on April 16, 2014, 05:09:01 PM: Hi friends,

What do you feel when you park your shining awesome bike and when you are not around, people come and sit on it, have feel of it. I mean, I am fine with people checking on it, staring it closely but when they site, they not only fiddle with switches, they leave scratches sometimes on side panel, kicks..

One day when I came back from a shop, someone played with my bikes gear lever so badly or donno if stood over it, it literally when unusable, I had to take bike to a mechanic and re-adjust it properly.

And if tell people to keep distance from your bike, they look at you as if you have asked them something inappropriate or insulting.

I mean, its fine to look and touch bike but touching it improperly, messing with moving parts , what they are, idiots ?

Some kids had gone through my saddlebags. Fortunately I didn't keep anything in them but still, I now park only in very public places that are well lit and if possible with a camera.

Rule of thumb, never touch someone else's motorcycle unless invited.
