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?
Lucky you had a spare. There’s assholes everywhere, unfortunately
The weird part is, the rest of the plug is missing from the connector… Maybe a homeless dude wanted it for breaking windows?
Bike’s got a stock exhaust, hopefully it’s not a pissed neighbor from having to warm her up for a couple of minutes in the morning.

Stock exhaust on a two-banger being a problem? Unlikely, if it was built this century. Thanks for not being one of those attention-seeking bikers that give the rest of us a bad name.
ETA: I see it’s an 80s GS. Shouldn’t be very loud.
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.
