Keeping my flintlock loaded next time
Started up my bike this morning, couldn't get it past 3k rpm without 3/4 throttle. Looked down to see my spark plug shattered and wire ripped off. Some a55hole probably tried to unscrew it with pliers, or just vandalized it. Checked over the rest of the bike, and set the wire harness back on. It was arcing and wouldn't run well below 2.5k rpm. Had to get to work, so I rode it like that (scary when the power would surge and choke and then catch...)
Autozone doesn't carry an D9SEA, but I put in a D8 on the way home. I think kragen will have I need.
I'm installing that bike alarm I have (putting a shut off switch in it too to save the battery).
Makes me want to keep my flintlock rifle loaded blank. (Yeah...I got it for home protection ).
F***ing annoying.
On the way home a bug hit me in the neck, and I have a 2 inch welt. Fun.

So I guess the question is: do you think naked bikes are more likely to be vandalized? There's a naked Yamaha and 2 ninjas in the same lot, nothing happened to them...

Jeez freakin' Louise. I mean, who hasn't smoked seeds out of a piece of tinfoil once or twice ... but that is beyond desperation.
If anybody needed a warning about the true nature of that stuff, it's being so addicted you'd saw the plugs out of a biker's most prized posession. That's just begging for a coroner's determination of blunt force trauma.
