Looks like both me and my Dad are bikeless.

He rode to pick up some take out food, parked it on the street, only to return to his bike completely on fire. It took less than 2 minutes for the bike to be completely engulfed in flames.

He already has his eye on a new bike. I suspect foul play.

Wow. Who'd he tick off?
 
The boy grows up hungry, steals and fights, purchases a gun and steals a car, attempts to run, but is shot and killed just as another child is born. And his Mama cries. In the ghetto.
All things considered, you guys got off easy. In the ghetto.
 
She dun burn good ... that sucks.

Previous owner of my ZX-11 put the fuel petcock together wrong at some point. Second time I rode it after filling it up with gas, by the time I got to work I noticed it was PISSING gasoline over the hot motor. I was imagining this but luckily it never touched off.
 
Looks like both front and rear wheel are ok, all you need to do is transfer them over to your living room couch and then you got yourself a brand new Goldwing :D. In seriousness of the situation, I'm sorry for your loss and I hope the insurance will fully reimburse you
 
Sucks to see happen to any bike. Peggy go back to the troll cave :thefinger:

Shocked to hear & feel sorry for your dad's loss brother...
Good thing he wasn't on it when it ignited.

Oh sure, let's just spew out racist ignorance and ignore the obvious cause: a leaky fuel pump or cracked fuel line dumping fuel on a hot engine.

Here's another, trailer wiring:

Honda had some bad fuel pumps in the 90s on CBRs, and a lot of them caught fire. No poor not-your-color people involved.

I thought it was a bit poetic, myself. There is no mention of a race involved here, nor is there a mention of location. There are ghettos of all kinds in Toronto, not to mention elsewhere. Grow thicker skin and don't pull the race card so quickly, especially when only you are insulted. It show3s you have a chip on your shoulder.
 
And the song, "In the Ghetto", made no mention of race when Mac Davis wrote the song as commentary on a problem in US society. Some guy named Elvis made it a hit song.

Whoah! I've heard of naked bikes but that's taking it to the extreme.
