Ein Nachbar in unserer Straße Parks sein Motorrad wie dieses und gestern konnten die 2 Fietkluisen nicht geöffnet werden. Zahlreiche Personen, einschließlich mir, konnten unsere Fahrräder nicht benutzen. Einer der Nachbarn hat mit dem Eigentümer des Motorrads gesprochen, aber es ist ihm offensichtlich egal. Ist dies überhaupt legal, um auf dem Bürgersteig zu parken, und wenn nicht, bin ich kleinlich, wenn ich die Polizei raste? Meine Frau glaubt, ich sollte es nicht tun, aber ich denke, ich sollte es nicht. Nur ist er den Besitzern der in der Fietsluisen geparkten Fahrräder rücksichtslos, aber er blockiert auch den Bürgersteig.

Sprinkle some birdseed on the seat… He’ll move…
Move the bike?
Call the police.
That bike looks like it tips right over. How about people grow a pair.
You are allowed to park on the trottoir with a motorbike but not allowed to block traffic, doors, etc… You can check your local police office (eg https://www.politie.be/5419/nieuws/wegcode-voor-motorrijders-een-opfrissing#:~:text=Parkeren%20op%20trottoirs%20en%20verhoogde,in%20onveiligheid%20mogen%20gebracht%20worden.) and contact the wijkagent for complaints.
don’t ask him to move the bike, *tell* him to stop parking there.
if he still refuses afterwards, call the police
„He obviously doesn’t care“. What kind of a shitbag is this? If someone came asking me, I’d probably apologize, saying, „Oh sure, I didn’t know it was in the way. I’ll park it a few meters further next time. No worries“. This person deserves every bit of karma coming to him. But if you tried talking, then police is the next step. Or insulation foam in the exhaust. Or accidentally bumping my old rusty bike against his. I’ll let you be the judge of that.
It’s allowed to park on the pavement if not blocking pedestrian flow. In this case it clearly does, so I think police would fine him (or at least warn him).
Unfortunately, motorbikes are authorised to be parked on the sidewalk by law and the guy is being a dikkenek.
Also, just move it.
Just put a dog turd on his saddle
Talk to him again.
One may park 2-wheeled vehicles on the sidewalk, under certain conditions:
– Same restrictions as cars: not too close to pedestrian crossings and intersections, not hiding signs, and not in front of garages (*Do these bike storages count as garages? I’d argue so, but probably not strictly so*) ; „no parking“ signs however do not apply. Additionally, not alongside ‚loading/unloading zones‘.
– Must leave enough room for unobstructed traffic. By default, this means leave at least 1.50m of width on the sidewalk ; the code doesn’t specifically say that number, but it’s the convention to allow the passage of strollers and wheelchairs.
I’d call the police, and if the police tells me to move it myself, well… good odds I’ll cause it to fall over, these things are heavy, and I only got one hand.
Open the bicycles thing and if it makes the bike fall, too bad 😇
Talk to the guy yourself first before taking drastic measures. Who knows how the conversation between him and your neighbour went down.
Biker here!
As another commenter has said, talk to the guy yourself first. Bikers are usually chill. He rides a Honda, not a Harley.
Judging by the picture he could park a little more to the right, would that leave enough space for you? Or is there another spot on the pavement where he could park?
Do not move the motorcycle yourself. Do not touch it, do not fuck with it.
The law says we can park our bike on the sidewalk if we are not obstructing pedestrians (1.5m of free space).
I’d go talk to him myself, as if you didn’t know someone else already did it before you. Be friendly. If there’s multiple people reaching out in a respectful manner, he might change his ways.
He is absolutely a douchebag, no doubt about that, but if you go in angry and shouty there’s even less chance of „making him considerate“.
Only if you’ve asked nicely, you can start throwing piss discs.
