I hate those rotten m ongrels that steal a persons bike. A friend and his wife had their TM 300 and TTR 230 stolen last January from their Garage. They reolaced thed bikes and beefed up the doors. The Bastards came in throught the side wall and took the new replacements in May. Can you believe they punched through the brick work. Good ending the second bike was recovered ( a real mess) and the rider booked. He claimed he bought in a pub from a stranger according the the press. There is a fair bit of bike thievery in my State and the police generally are pretty ineffective at recovery. I just loathe those low lifes who do that lousy rotten thing to riders
really bothers me about things being stolen, especially bikes. I have had a 4x4 truck stolen as well as a brand new rode twice hodaka combat wombat. None were recovered. We have a hot bed of dirt bike rip offs here in calif., one of the reasons is because states like Nevada, dont require registration of dirt bikes. The market in Nevada for dirt bikes is really hot, and it doesnt help that a calif dirt bike stolen here can be sold there as if it was legit, no one cares no one wants to do anything about it. Calif. may have its share of problems, but requiring dirt bike registration, at least keeps some hot bikes from being used here, and if they are used here, there's a chance it can be recovered. Of course that would mean blm, rangers, and leo's would have to do their job and check vins. Soap box soap box. Hope the guy gets his bike back... Mike
Good news! Bike has been recovered by Vallejo PD The owner doesn't have it in his hot little hands yet, but at least the thieves don't have it anymore The owner has been a volunteer with the National Motorcycle Patrol for years, supporting AFM roadracing and various off-road racing events as well. Score one for the good guys WoodsChick
Awesome! The only thing better would be news of the perps sailing off the edge of a 1000 ft. cliff in the getaway vehicle!
Awesome. Recently a good ride buddy got his KTM stolen out of his lacked garage while he was home It was found a week later right down the street in a back yard. someone that new my buddy saw some orange and told him. Got the bike back but the freaking cops would do nothing as they did not see them steel it and the piles of stuff obviously stolen which was littered everywhere. (tools etc) Then a few weeks ago a good friend got his trailer, bikes and gear stolen from his driveway and that got recovered through some posted on TT. two for two recoveries. Nice.
