The thing is when the bike is beside the car there is wayyyy more than enough to sit on the bike and move it out. No need to come that far over. He's making it max relax for himself at my expense. It looks as though I will have to address the issue. I just find it difficult to discuss without sounding confrontational.

I have a tendency to come across harshly and aggressively when I find myself in a situation such as yours. It seems like I want to attack right out of the gate. What I am teaching myself, and it's working, is to come across like you need his help. Most people actually do cooperate if they think they are helping to solve someone's problem. Most people, not all. Be nice. explain your concerns, ask for his help and then see what happens.

If this approach does not work, then let me know if you want some help along the lines of what Mr. Glokwork suggested. I like that approach too and have gotten pretty good at it over the years.

At least the security camera right above you will capture his dastardly deed should he whack your Z.
