The hooded vandal - dressed in grey - shoved the motorcycle onto its side while it was parked near a traffic island in Cheltenham on November 12

A yob who tried to trash a motorbike received a dose of instant karma after the rider knocked him to the ground with a Kung-Fu panda-style flying kick. 

The hooded vandal – dressed in grey – shoved the motorcycle onto its side while it was parked near a traffic island in Cheltenham on November 12 .

But the eagle-eyed rider spotted what was happening and ran over. 

He then floored the yob with a Kung-Fu panda-style flying kick that connected with his chest. 

The man was sent sprawling to the ground and narrowly avoided a silver Ford Fiesta passing by.

Shocked locals compared the kick to a move from cult Nintendo game Street Fighter II.

The confrontation, which took place on the High Street in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, on November 12 was filmed by a passer-by. 

As the yob shoved the bike, he can be heard saying: ‘No, no not over.’
