My first "Get the hell off my bike" incident.
#121
I haven't confirmed this, but I've been told that the owner of the bike could be held liable for this. I've go several "unsupervised" kidos in my hood. And they all want to run up to the bike when I drive up. I try to get her into the garage as quick as possible. But I don't have an "easy pass" system.

another F-body drive with a Harley too! I love it!

I've seen the "take a picture on someone else's bike" thing before too, and I always thought a good way to deter that nonsense would be a simple little snap on device for the seat before you leave your bike in public.

Yeah, just what we need, more stupid laws.
What if a Police officer sees a Dirty Harry wannabee pull a pistol just because someone sat on his precious motorcycle?
The offense is sitting on a motorcycle, not attempted murder...
The bike is parked in a public place, people will touch it and sit on it. They will hit it with car doors and shopping carts...

I suppose if someone were to just walk into your home and start eating stuff from your 'fridge and pantry, sleep on a bed, try to borrow your car, ad nause, you'd just be fine with that? If you came out of the store and saw someone inside your vehicle, you wouldn't think they were trying to steal anything, right?

I call that my Son-In-Law and no, my wife won't let me shoot him either! ;-)

I have taught my kids, to keep their friends away from my bike.
Two weeks ago, a guy I know was dropping his son off to play with my son. I was working in the garage and he saw my bikes, he comes over and says "can I sit on your bike?" and proceeds to jump on my FXR4. I moved quickly to catch the bike in case of a knock over, but he landed in the seat and no further trouble happened. I thought for about one second to verbally explain the proper etiquette regarding jumping on someones bike like that, but let it go. The poor guy is fighting cancer and it seemed to make him happy. He told me how he would like to buy an HD someday and he has wanted one for years. He had a big grin on his face. The bike was not damaged, so, no problem. That has been the only potential "get off my bike" incident I have had in years.
