Pull off some of those chrome accessories and the leather panniers and there should be plenty of room

Just harleys? Not goldwinds, pan-euros, GS1150s or sideways-parked scooters?

so that justifies the scooter riders that cram their scooters into the "gaps" between bikes that are tiny as is without regard for any damage done? Im not talking scooter size gaps Im talking the small amount of space between bikes that scooter riders seem to think their scooters will fit into

I tell you I wouldnt ride the SV in to London if I had to use bike bays. Had my gpz scratched and knocked a couple of times before and will only ride an old hack in if I have to use bike bays.

sorry needed a scooter orientated rant after one nearly took me out this morning...

It's worse when those stupid harley riders think that they have to get both wheels inside the box, and therefore park it diagonally so it fits - taking up at least 3 slots - prats.

Actualy they do have to get both wheels in. They'd get a ticket otherwise.

Really?!? I didn't know that. Surely no-one would give them a ticket for that...

...what am I saying of course they would.

Still, they still have a silly harley for riding in town so they are still prats.
