thats says it all, when i parked my zuma by my work, i saw few kids staring at my scooter... i had it locked up to the fence but they got it off the center stand and tried to roll it off i think, anyways, they dropped it on the left side... not the pipe side. thats a good thing...

the passenger foot rest took most of the blow as its cracked into little pieces. my rear faring got some deep scratches (cant be buffed out) and the brake lever is dinged up along with the mirror...

surprisingly nothing broke off... that rear foot rest really acted like a frame slider.. i think im gonna attach somehting there...

i did find the kids and yelled at them. i work with kids so I just couldnt slap them or anything.. though i REALLLLLY wanted to :( I hope they got the message and will stay away from my zuma in the futur.. :(

anyways a bad day for my zuma..
:( :mad:

thats just not right!!!!! ;no

What age group of kids are talking about? (both the vandals, and the ones you work with?)

Luckily, it sounds like some easy fixes..... I hope it all goes well!

still that's something to take em out back and give them a boot to the butt... maybe someone should since obviously their parents don't

vandals were probably 11 to 13 years old... just that bad stage... and being that they hanged around in a group of 5 or so.. its just a bad mix.

I coach swimming to kids aged 6 thru 14, some high school kids too.. but none of my kids are disrespectful... these kids are from the projects.. and have no respect.

its just a sad day, i may think of making a frame slider type of protection fot the zuma... off of the rear rack.. something can be made...

You need a new place to park..Can You park in a Place you can Check regularly....Or can you bring that scoot inside??...

plug it into a plug in, so if anyone touches it... it shocks the hell out of them...

man i would love to do that, i bet it might have not happened if I had a security system like yours.... I did bring the scoot inside but we are not allowed to... if the center stand can be locked in place stuff like this will not happen... or it will be harder to...
