Gotta agree with the "wimp" comment. It pained me greatly just ride away but I made a promise to my wife after the last time I had to adjust someones thinking (and face) with physical violence that I wouldn't do that again unless it was in response to a physical threat to myself or family. Sometimes we just have to let things go even when it would give us great satisfaction to do otherwise. Call me a wimp if you like (and I may not disagree)....just don't threaten me or my family at the same time

I hope there is video of it. If there is, post it here.

I also agree about Kharma. Do 'good', and 'good' will come back to you.

Sad to hear tales like this.....

Coulda LOUDLY asked the guy if he saw the worthless, gutless, scum sucking douche-bag that damaged your bike...... and if he couldnt tell ya....
Then I would ask LOUDLY at the counter inside if anyone seen the gutless, TOO much of a Puss, waste of space that damaged your bike.
If still no result....... Pace around your bike in the lot asking loudly why the Idiot diddnt have the Nuts to Stand up, since they believed they had a pair when they damaged your bike.

If nothing else...... hopefully the offender has to slink off with their tale between their legs......... And no telling what a sympathetic crowd might yield !

Anywyas............
