Bikes sat outside overnight!!!

Right, I'm not a very angry person, but one thing I saw today really got up my nose (5 points if you can guess what it was)
I was walking down a street on my way to work, one which I walk down quite regularly and have never seen a bike parked there, ever. I turned a corner and saw in the distance what looked like a Kawasaki ZZR600, on closer inspection it turned out to be a ZXR400 L4, but as I got closer to it, I noticed small icicles that had formed on the handlebars. This bike had quite obviiously been left out in -7 temperatures overnight with no cover and no lock! It had been raining last night too, so as I walked past I saw ice covering the mudguard, seats and dials, I was outraged! How can someone be so stupid?
I would've taken a photo but it's one of those streets where old people peer out of their laced curtains at passers by, and I didn't particularly feel like being arrested because some old biddy decides to call the police about a "young whippersnapper" being nosy...
I assume it was abandoned or something, but if I ever see that bike around with it's rider near-by, I may have to beat the shite out of him for being such a f**king pillock
Stupidity or Forgetfulness?
