Someone set fire to my motorcycle cover and placed a six-pack of rotten eggs next to my bike. I'm so saddened and very angry... no idea who this could have been. I have a fire report #, getting the incident report and getting in touch with the arson investigator tomorrow.

That is rotten!
Something has to be done about bike haters! When I leave my bike covered in Park LaBrea I get stickers all the time on it complaining I am taking up a car space. Always wondering if it is going to be lying on the ground in the morning.
Really sorry to hear that!

you homeowners might cover it.  Probably take less of a hit on your premium than on your auto.

Time to set up cameras. Or get a LOUD vehicle alarm system.

Then Issue some 12g love to the perpetrators chests.

When the cops show up just say

"It was justified"   waytogo

Truly sucks though, It fills me with rage just seeing this happen to someone else. I don't want to imagine how I would react if it was my bike.

Just... Wow... If that were me, I'd be camping out around the corner out of site with a bat waiting for someone to come by and say something like, "That's what she gets." Then the beat down comes. WTF is wrong with people?

What a shame.  Sorry to hear it.  I once had someone at my work put an opened condom (hopefully not a used one) on my triple clamp.  When I saw it, I went ballistic and walked into work ready to lose my job, as I knew who must have done it.  Do you have anyone you suspect might have done it?  Any conflict or tension around there?  Might be a good start. 

Regardless, sorry to hear it.  Your bike looked beautiful.  Hopefully it's back to its normal self soon.

^ thanks, i hope so, too...   
yeah, the thing is i have absolutely no idea. other than silly political internet debates with other riders, i haven't been in a real fight for YEARS... i honestly didn't think anyone disliked me... i'm friendly or cordial with all my ex's...  i've not a clue. :/
Not many people know where I live, either... it concerns me.

this is one of the lowest, most crappy things i've ever seen. (and i've seen a lot)! there are cowards in this world and this is how they communicate. i'm guessing cowards have no communication skills. have you ever heard a single word about the 'noise' coming from your bike? i can't imagine anything else it could be given your comment of never being in any arguements with anyone.
