story of getting my stolen ZX6R back

[green machine]

I had my bike stolen from my carport, the bike was pinned between my car and the wall.1 week later I get a phone call at 2 am in the morn. a cop saying they found my bike.What happened was a officer was on route to chilliwack from abbotsford for a break and enter,so he had his lights on.He came up to the bike and it didn't pull over so the cop radioed a road block and caught the asshead!! this idiot still had my stolen plates on it!!!anyway after a month of dealing with or lovely insurance co. they are fixing the bike. But i've been without it for 2 months and hurting.But I get it back the end of the month. I'm new to this forum and would like to go for one of those rides this summer.:thumbup

I think KAWBOY has a great idea. The guy that stole your bike should have his right hand chopped off. (see: can of worms)



with a dull axe~

lol I agree

[PorscheNut]

Why stop with his hands? He should have everything chopped off, including his head. F*cking thieves.

Incidentally, I was looking into GPS systems. I haven't been able to turn up any small enough to install on a bike but Ralph's Audio sells the Boomerang system for cars and it's $499 installed with a $10 monthly charge. The system won't work on bikes because the unit itself is about a foot long and difficult to conceal on a motorcycle.

PorcheNut, correct me if I'm wrong, but does the GPS unit require a line of sight?

That is some sweet ass news. Theifs make my blood boil. Any idea what this guy looks like? Have the police given you any details?

Nope, apparently they can completely hide the unit and it works in covered areas as well, (I don't know about underground garages though. I was told by one GPS expert that the antenna has to be visible, but then the Ralph's salesperson refuted that. They've sold lots with all the units completely hidden.

pn: i was lightly looking into this last year when my zx-9r was stolen. there are a few companies working on pendants for alzheimer patients and children. i read a story of a guy in japan who stuck one under his seat. when his bike got stolen he just went online and did a trace. when the cops went to where it was, they recover over 50 other bikes and broke a theft ring.

we should see if this type of service is available in canada.

Finally they caught one of the bastards. My 02 ZX-6R is still missing after it was stolen on July 7th.
