    Sorry to hear that! The scum are probably already headed out of state with it. Just a couple days ago, man and woman stole a travel trailer out of the police impound in broad daylight, they are sitting in jail though.

    Sorry for your loss. Did they pick it up and carry it away? In mexico, the dealerships chain their new bikes to the floor. I have a lock alarm on my rotor, that make a loud noise if the bike senses movement...

    Nice bike. I miss mine. 2016 ZX-14R SE. Sold it during the (ongoing) divorce to pay for money grubbing lawyers. Hope you get yours back.

    Was the key in it? I guess I really do need to get a rotor lock for mine if they are that easy to boost. With any luck they'll wrap it around a tree while the in the saddle!

    When we lived in the city my neighbor's Harley was stolen, they cut the chain and drug it over his Corvette! If they want it they will get it. Good luck on getting something you WANT back. Most if not stripped in 24 hours come back as an abused ***.

    There’s a special place for thieves. A man works hard for what he has to only have it stolen. I hope you had it insured.

    It was fully insured. Both keys are hanging on my door. No idea how they got it, prolly picked it up and put it in a van. It's being blasted on Facebook and I'm checking craigslist/Facebook marketplace religiously. Prolly wont see it again but I sure liked her and still want her back if shes in good condition.

    i hate thieves, but with a bike too easy to steal, and sadly was probably in 100 pieces within an hour.

    Its just the fact that they think they are entitled to what I have simply because they want it or the money it represents. They do not have the slightest idea of nor do they care about the hundreds of extra hours working to establish myself at my company, fixing things myself to save the business money, taking work home to analyze and make better decisions, training/developing employees, getting the promotion I deserved, and finally rewarding myself with my first brand new vehicle that I use to save even more money for things like a fiance and a house. Id love to bury that guy in the four corners of a field and smile every time I ripped by.

    Got it all out, rant over.

    i agree 100%. ive long felt it should be legal to kill someone who steals from you.

    Just a bummer! I have bicycles and motorcycles that I think I'd mourn over if they were stolen, and their not even anything really special to anyone but me. So, if they pick them up, a disk lock is only going to annoy them a minute or two at the most, just sad.

    I once had a bike (Yamaha R1) stolen. I was younger and lived in Southern Kalifornia at the time so, could only afford liability. Total loss and never recovered. Mine was stolen in broad daylight while I was at work. Hope you get it recovered and the thief/thieves caught.
