So this cat has taken a liking to my bike and now claims it as his. That little bastard pissed on my motor. When I start it and the motor get nice and warm the wonderful smell of cat piss fills the inside of my lid. I try washing but he must have gotten it in places I cant get to with soap.
It should not be a karma thing because I am always so nice to every animal I meet.

MIKE! that's HORRIBLE!
if you go to the pet store, they sell some spray stuff that repels animals from peeing on things...or just wait it out, kitty's bound to find a new pee spot soon

Mike How does one electrify their bike? I have herd of someone attaching a 2nd wire to a spark plug and running it up to the seat and when the bike is being started they get a wakeup call. Would I have to plug it in to an outlet?
Actually I could never be mean to animals, I could joke about it but could never do it (I'm a wildlife biologist). But a hose with 6 billion gallons of water per minute I could do. They dry off quickly don't they. I think I will go to the pet store and look into a repellant of some sort. Its just anoying and reaks of, well you know.
There is something called "Boundary" that you can pick up at pet stores (and often most super markets) that you can spray AROUND the area of your motorcycle to keep them away. (rumor has it that it contains the slightest amount of a synthetic chemical that while undetectable by humans, smells like COUGAR PISS to them....)

Sometimes a nice massage helps!
Also, a small bowl with some cheap cat food will make him your pal and may go a long ways towards making him your "Watch Cat" and perhaps NOT pee on your bike. I feed the local feral cats and they are very grateful and also do not soil the yard (don't piss where they eat sort of thing..)

At least he also probably kills those rats that eat up wires and chase away those pesky birds that love to aim for our bikes, as well.

Finally, a cheap motorcycle cover can help so that at least you can rinse that off -- btw there is this stuff called "Natures Miracle" that you can get at Petco that breaks down the cat pee smell using "natures enzymes" that could also help reduce or elliminate that smell of pee from wafting up around you on those hot summer days, too.
(WOW -- this is the LONGEST post I've ever written on CAT PEE!!!!!)

You could tether a hungry coyote to your bike too. Or maybe take up falconry as a hobby? guess the latter option will depend on the size of the cat.

I've been exploring the idea of electrifying the bike as an antitheft device. One idea I had was to buy a taser, wire it up to draw power off the bike, move my kill switch to a different hidden button and wire in the taser's trigger button wires to the bike's kill switch in it's place. Then, run leads from the prongs on the taser to wires located either/an/or in the seat or in the handlebars. Then rig up a paging alarm to notify me if someone tried to hotwire the bike and just tasered themself. Then I can show up and deal with the guy.. It's legal if I put a big "warning electric shock" OSHA sign on the bike right?
Of course this would only work for people trying to jump on and hotwire your bike.. I still have to find an elegant, yet colorful way to deal with people who are looking to toss it in the back of a truck.
Oh yeah, bike theives PISS ME OFF and although I may not be large, but I'm motivated and would probably be interested to see what sort of jackass is making my insurance rates go up.
Of course this would take a shit load of time to wire and saftey test... Just rigging up a way to turn off the headlights on startup took 8.5 hours... This would be much much more involved.
BTW, I like the mustard based cat repellant idea more.. Too bad mustard won't keep bike thieves away..

One would think a cover would do the job but he/she found a way around that. Don't ask me how they just did. one of the other options is a coyote. Well my board name is ridley for a reason. Namely my 100 pound horse of a Laborador named Ridley, I use to have. He was a brick shit house who hated cats except for my sisters. I wish I still had him.

Funny how SV people seem to have affinity for cats. I'm quite partial myself, even though I don't presently have any. I strongly suspect Harley types only tolerate dogs and other totally submissive type creatures.

cats..that was a good musical.
and the way karma works..the same stream applies to your spirit/soul, whatever each lifetime..so although you may be a saint in this one..if you were some lecherous, murderous jackass in your previous one, you're SOL.

I love cats! Had always been a "dog guy" until I had a couple, now we have 5, plus one that we're "fostering" (but then she's ours as well, so it's like havin' six..) And they are marvelous animals, name another animal that goes and digs a hole, then poos, then buries it!!!!
:)
Dang, that sucks. I have a couple of cats and man, that urine is out of this world. It has to be fermenting in their guts for some time before they whizz it out. I think pickled eggs smells better.
Thank goodness for kitty litter.
Anyway, try what the others have suggested...the repellent spray.

Be sure not to use hollow points. You'll obliterate the kitty. Use standard rounds so that they can still run a few feet. It makes the hunt more fun.

Lawn and garden shops sell motion activated sprinklers to ward off garden pests , but it would be great for cats, pet stores also sell electrified mats (battery powered) to give pets a static shock when they jump on the couch or counter. (these would also be great to prank friends and co-workers)

You sure its not a rat? Huge problem in Costa Mesa/Npt Beach area. I get brand new cars in with gnawed wiring and pee stench. The givaway is dog food traces. Dust the area with talcum to see the tracks. Trap Rats! Befriend cats..supply cat with better toilet facility..even fresh sheet of newspaper..put piece of cardboard on seat if it is a cat. They like to perch and sharpen claws.
