Fuck.
Woke up at 6 a.m. today, looked out the window and sure enough, my covered baby is gone.
Stolen.
It was covered, disc lock and steering locked.
I had a feeling something was up. When I went out to the bike yesterday, the cover was pulled up enough to expose the disc brake lock. I figured it was just some kids taking a look.
Guess not.
In the extreme off chance anyone spots it, my bike is a 1996 Yamaha YZF1000, red and white. It has a D&D slip-on so it's pretty loud.
The Stolen Bike Club isn't one I wanted to belong to.
I live out in Mission so this is proof theft happens everywhere.
Now, onto to ICBC...
That rips. It's not like there's another 999 million of those bikes out there so you can get another one. Didn't you just buy it this year? You dwell in an apartment complex or detached?
I did just buy it this year. Just put it on the road like 10 days ago. I didn't think anyone would bother with an older sportbike, but I locked it and covered it nonetheless.
I feel like I'm going burst. Just spoke with ICBC and I have an appointment with an adjuster tomorrow morning.
We'll see how it goes.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
I'am so sorry to here that man!:mad That just pisses me right off! I WILL be on the lookout!!!!!!!I hope your dealings with ICBC are short and sweet! I was gonna call you to ride today too!!!!!!!!!!!!All I can say is FUCK!!!
Jason, Iam so sorry for your loss. I really thought the out here in the valley, we were safer from this kind of theft. give me a buzz if you need anything.
Man that sucks big time. I too am in the valley and even though i knew i wasn't immune i still hoped deep inside it wouldn't happen out here. I just hope that my day doesn't come to realize my baby is gone. Sorry bout your loss dude Good luck with the ICBC people.
Oh Jason, I am so sorry. You seemed to enjoy that bike so much. If you can get a replacement bike, Jerry's is still at Pacific Yamaha.
I can't believe how often this is happening. Is it more than last year, or are there more people on the board and we are more aware?
Jason...buddy. What is up with this crap. I feel for you man. If there is anything I can do for you just drop me a line. I am there for ya. Take care and best of luck.
Dammit, that means they stole my back seat! I'm sorry Jason, I know how much you loved your baby. But i still love you even without my bitch pad...
