I've said it before and I'll say it again... My life would be complete if like 99% of the people on this planet spontaneously turned into zombies and started eating the other 1%.

It was probably HIS disk lock, and he was to embarrased to admit it

I remember once I put a U-lock around the wheel and swingarm of my SV.......Then forgot about it. Put a small dent in the wheel and twisted the lock, making me call a locksmith to cut it off

I leave shit on my bike all the time and its never been messed with...

Would you put it beyond this guy to have maybe bought a disc lock, forgot that he was using it, and pulled out forgetting about it, and just saying somebody put it there to save face? That situation seems more plausible then there are bandits out there buying 30 dollar disc locks just to fuck with people.

I can think of MUCH worse things to do if i was really THAT pissed at somebody. silica sand + oil = new bike time. cut the clutch/throttle line. crazy glue in the ignition, all of which would cost me less than a dollar.

Yeh, it is quite possible, but who knows. The other thing that seems pretty plausible is that teh guy is a cop in the area it happened, someone could recognized him as the cop that arrested or wrote a ticket (which is his thought) to them, and just left their disk lock on his bike to fuck with him.

So there are people out there that carry disk locks around just so they can fuck with other people's bikes. Seems odd to me.
