Some SOB knocked over my bike and more... !

[Terrapin]

So I walk my girlfriend out to her truck this morning like I do every morning when she goes to work, and I see my bike laying over on its right side. My truck was parked on the bike's left side, so I know that no vehicle could have hit it on that side, causing it to fall on its right side... The cover was still on it. My girlfriend tells me to call the police just to have it on record and pulls off to go to work.

Here's where it gets really fun.

She calls me right after I get off the phone with the police to tell me her truck stalled on her on the side of the interstate and she can't get it started. So I call the police back and tell them I have to go pick her up and I'll be right back. I get in my truck and don't even get out of the apartment complex and my truck quits running and I can't get it started again. I do a Sunday night fill-up on both trucks, so I know both trucks were running fine last night.

Nice.

I call the police back and tell them about the both of our trucks coincidentally quit running at the same time. I go back to where my truck was parked and there's fluid all over the ground under where my filler tube was. Go to where my girlfriend's truck was parked and the same thing.

The police get there and I file a report on both trucks and the bike. The officer was great and he called up another officer to go pick up my girlfriend. I showed him the pictures on my camera that I had taken to prove that my truck was parked right next to it. He agreed someone knocked it over intentionally. He looks at the fluid in both parking spots and says that it's oil. We pick the bike up, take the cover off and look at it. The only damage was a broken bar end mirror and a slightly bent brake lever. The bike starts and runs fine.   

So, my girlfriend can't go to work, I can't go to work, and some SOB (we have a good idea of who it was) has a grudge against us. Now we have to get both trucks towed, drained, and cleaned out. Both trucks and the bike are fully insured, so it's a matter of inconvenience.

To quote the officer "What a pregnant dog move to do to someone."

[Buckethead]

Bollocks. 

Whoever did this needs a huge karmic pregnant dog-slap. Here's hoping they spontaneously combust.

[TiNi]

that sucks... 

i'm wondering why someone would do that to you and the gf...

[Got Duc]

Sucks

Sugar in the gas? Look around the fill area.

[Terrapin]

Nope. OIL in the gas. Hopefully not as hard to clean out.

[ducpainter]

Must have been a lot of it...

that sucks

[Terrapin]

Oh, it's all over the place. Don't know why I didn't notice it right away other than it was under the truck and I was freaking out about my bike.

[ducatiz]

oil in the gas can fry your fuel pump and injectors if you have an efi truck.  high pressure pump + high viscosity liquid = bad.

fuel line won't be hurt nor the engine itself if it actually made it into the engine.  in fact, that's the best thing for them to have put in it, lots of sugar would have been worse.

carbie engine will fare better with a low pressure fuel pump.  carb will need to be blown out with solvent. 

hope you find him and ream him with a lead pipe.

So who did you piss in the pool lately ?
Was your garden party loud enough to entertain the neighborhood 10 blocks away.
Are you filing a law suit over some picket fences ?
Is your gf maybe someones ex-gf ? just...recently ?
Thats a move planed and executed by someone who knows what to do and to whom.
And sorry to hear about the bike..

[Spicoli]

I like hte officers comment

Keep us informed if they catch the jerk(s) and if it was the person you think it is.

[Howie]

Man, does that ever suck!  Ducatizzzz is correct about the possibility of pump and injector damage.   Even if the trucks seem to run well, have them check fuel pump pressure and injector spray pattern before settling with insurance.  Also check for catalytic converter efficiency.  Cats do not like oil.  Change the fuel filter too, it holds quite a large quantity of fuel

[Terrapin]

Oh, we're pretty sure it's a jealous ex-boyfriend, but from almost a YEAR ago. It's not like she cheated on him with me or anything like that. I came along a couple months after they broke up. But yeah, it was definitely a planned event.

Having the trucks towed in to a shop nearby and going to have them go over everything from the tank to the exhaust. Insurance is covering everything on both trucks including a rental for her. Not going to bother on the bike, just a broken mirror.

[Duc Fever]

You might want to take some precautions as well in case the SOB tries something else! locking gas caps would be a start and if possible maybe a camera to catch the bast@rd, or one of those perimeter alarm systems.  Messing with a persons ride is about as low as you can go in my book.

[ArguZ]

Yeah, call homeland security and the NRA to turn your home into a fortress ... live in fear !
Bullshit...spend the cash on a trip with your lady and feel good 
And tell give us the details of that nice insurance...thats great they cover all this...
Locked fuel caps on the other hand are standard where I live...because of little gnomes sucking it out and having parties all night

[He Man]

Man, that is some seriously planned shit. Someone who has thought of all that (im surpise you dont have a locking gas cap i thought thye came standard!) probably wants to do something again. Id be on alert for a while. Shotgun with Beanbags and rock salt ready. or if no shotty, its baseball bat, duct tape and smelly fart in a can.
