Thieves.. wtf?!
So I've parked my bike in front of my garage last night, locked the steering and went inside. I get out next morning and the bike is gone. WTF is wrong with ppl taking others' property?! Can anyone help me find it? Does any of you know a shop were this bike could be at? Please provide me with ANY info. Thank you.

I can't help you find it here in Arkansas, but fyi, sportbikes are light. Alot of thieves run around in vans or box trucks with 2-4 guys. They jump out, grab your bike up and haul it away. Locked steering does nothing. You need to chain it to something aswell as some sort of noise producing alarm. That's still only a deterent because a determined thief can still overcome those deterents. Lojack is also a possibility. Good luck with the find. Search ebay, craigslist and the likes. You might get lucky.

Sorry your bike got stolen. Been there, had it happen to me...never saw the bike again. I'm sure you've already filed your police report & contacted your insurance co. Really, that's about all you can do at this point besides watching the CL ads.
Just FYI, a lot of stolen bikes/parts from LA end up in San Diego & vice-versa. So check both sections on CL, as well as other surrounding areas.
Good luck.

Post up on CL and ask the motorcycle community to keep an eye out for you and help you out! Most of us are honest hard working people who have also had stuff stolen from us and are mroe than willing to help. That's how I recovered a stolen dirtbike of mine. Title your post something like "HAS ANYONE SEEN THIS STOLEN BIKE????????????" Anyhow, it worked for me. Good Luck!

Trust me.. This will definitely happen from now on, but help me get it back
If I knew this was happening.. I would take a bullet for it.

If it happened to me, I'd post it under the For Sale / Motorcycle section with the title: "WARNING: This bike is stolen!!!", fill the ad with pics, last few of the VIN and offer a reward for info if you can afford it.
