starter motor cable

[alantf]

Got up yesterday morning, and went down to the bike in the communal parking area, to find that some sick bastard had cut the starter motor cable. Trouble is, that out of the 18 apartments in the block, 13 are owner occupied (really nice people) but 5 are rented out, & the owner seems to rent to the scum of the earth. I've an idea who did it, because a few of us had to report one of the low lifes for making a hell of a noise at all times of the day & night. Reported it to the police, & they came & took a statement. Not much use, bue at least it might get through to them that the police are involved.

Anyway, stripped the cable out, this morning. Luckily it had been cut about 1" from the starter motor. Hadn't got a lug the right size, so I took the cable down to the local bike shop, & he crimped a new lug on for €5. Replaced it with a slight rerouting & it's fine again.

May the sick bastard rot in hell!
