Some sick bastard vandalised my GSA over the weekend, completely lifting the seat clear from the front rubber mountings (without breaking the "cups" that hold the seat onto the mountings). In so doing the managed to warp the plastic seat frame and crack the supports near the rear where it gets locked in. They didn't manage to remove the seat though, the locks held (or they got interrupted). The front right plastic panel just below the tank was also removed and left hanging. Whoever did it knows the GSA, or knew how tug the seat loose...
I did a quick check for obvious damage (none apart from the seat), and the indicator still shows the expected amount of petrol in the tank.
Any ideas what I should look for in the line of possible sabotage, or what it was they thought they might find below the seat? (Still have my toolkit - with the lock holding the rear of the seat down they couldn't get to that). Bike started okay, but not going to have a chance to take it for a ride (leaving for work today).
