Sounds like the guy had it coming to me! If I were you, I'd talk to the owner and switch garages asap. The jerk now knows what bay is yours and what you keep in there, and he might look for revenge.

If ya gotta brag about what you did like kicking someone butt.... then ya must want some approval from others or disapproval. Otherwise, why post it on a discussion forum?! Sounds like some highschool story telling to me.

Consider me what you like as it's your opnion and mine about the issues/stories posted here.

I can tell ya that if I were to get into a situation where some physical contacts were to take place, I surely wouldn't post it here! Kinda looks to much like "chest beating" and childish. Self bragging on issues such as this (in my opnion) should be kept out of a discussion form unless the author wants to hear the good.... and .... thebad of their chosen actions!

Just because I voice my opnion doesn't make me anything less then the other opnion writers!!!!! I'm just as smart as the next guy...Just have my own opnion and have the freedom to agree or disagree with the others.

Perhaps the author had the right to get physical!!... The other guy had it coming... Then do it!! But is it necessary to brag about it to the boys.... unless you want a stroke or two...

The being said.. Now you have your oportunity to post your opnion about what I said!
So you have the freedom to post your opinion but he doesn't have the same freedom to tell his story? Now that's weird. It didn't come across as a brag to me either.

BTW, Cover your ride at all times in storage. Even a leak in the roof won't look too good if it sits on the paint & chrome for a few days. And I'd watch this guy for retaliation.

I guess my only question is,,,, how does one get overspray on a bike in storage with the door closed??? I mean if you'd have the door open and someone painting nearby,,, why didn't you confront him then??? Something just doesn't add up here IMHO!!

Finally, some common sense. Paint overspray in an enclosed storage unit? 'IF' that's truly the case, I'd suggest finding a better place to store your ride. Sounds like a dump. Beyond that, sending a guy to the hospital (purportedly) because of some paint overspray? Damn, what do you do to folks who accidently 'ding' your ride, shoot 'em?[:-]

I assumed the bays were seperated by chain link fencing. If not, then how could it happen? I have to go with the fencing.
