What a way to start the day. Had a spare, so it added a few minutes to my morning. Carefully cleaned the dust from around the plug, swapped, started and rode.

NBD, but what the fuck?

    Not that it in any way justifies vandalism, but a guy who lived around the corner from my gf decided to park his bike right across the street from her place for a year or so and him starting up and idling like that, just outside the window, at around 6am every day…

    …well…like I said, it doesn’t justify vandalism at all, but I can at least see why someone may feel that way.

      It’s a 2 cylinder that idles pretty quiet… who’d be brave enough to get in a fist fight over a little noise at 7am or so?

      E: guys, it’s a quiet put-put-put, I’m not revving or anything while cold as that does exactly the damage I’m trying to protect the engine from.
