- keep the shiny side up
but that might make them mad and smash something else...
another thing to do would catch them red handed if you can and and break their kneecaps....
or call the cops....
surely the protector plates are the less violent way and easier....good idea.
either way im sorry you gotta deal with that...

How about those PITA spark plug shields Dodges have?
I like Kidkawie's idea. Just head over to your local Dodge dealer and order two of those. They won't be interested in fiddling with those enough to smash your plugs, when the next victim is right down the street.

How strong are these? ....twice they perp has taken a red clay brick and smashed it into the side of the bike to break the spark plug. He hit it hard enough to chip a piece of one of the cooling fins, and to chip a few pieces of red brick off, and leave dust everywhere.

it won't protect your plugs from damage.
there design was to prevent excessive heat from melting the boots and causing misfiring.
gm cars have them as well.
i think if you make some kind of plate for the bike you should patent it.
i'm also thinking it's just one person doing this to you.
whoever it is knows where you park and that it's a easy target.
i know what i would do to persuade them to stop messing with my bike but that's just me.
your going to have to catch them and confront them one night.
someday i will be able to afford my kz habit.
