I've got a really bad feeling that paint job may already be "Kryloned" to keep it from standing out in the crowd. I hope the scumbags are caught but we have to face it, this won't be very high on the law enforcement list...
I didnt think it would be..but we had a thought it might have left to hunt cnty. I called them and gave them some info, the sheriff went out there THAT NIGHT!!!! The shop owner called and told us the officers where there looking through his shop. Glad to know they are following up on the info provided.
I agree with Skip!!
I'll bet some idiot "rattle-canned" over that beautiful paint and is riding it now.
They would have to do the wheels too...Ive not seen another bike with two tone wheels like mine. I am putting the word out to powder coating shops already. I started to call around some of the dealers that sell my lights....just spreading as much info as I can.
Dang AJ, no good buddy. I hope something turns up quick. And I really hope that the guy riding it around is dumb enough to leave the color alone, so someone can spot it quickly.
I don't know if you can do this or not, but can you post this on Craigslist? It might be worth putting the word out there just in case.
There is a posting on there from about 3 hrs after we noticed it was missing. We know people are seeing it. buddy got an email saying they saw the bike 3 weeks ago on the side of the 635 in the HOV lane... well that was me when I pulled over to help the guy that was down.... the bike really stood out!!!
Just thinkin'; anyone from your old neighborhood that drooled over your bike and knew where you moved to?
I moved to Tx from Cali.. No one knew it was @ the shop. Being the only sport bike on the ground (there were two bikes accessible)...I was the one that got nabed.
If they're smart, it'll be left in a trailer or warehouse unseen.
Sorry man. I hate to see this. I'm still searching the web for an easy DIY gps system that only YOU can see it and not have to pay some company to do what you can for free.
I'm crazy so I'd have a group friends follow each worker around.
I've found a couple DIY's..but I dont want to buy another phone...they say to use a Blackberry.
I've already sent a few emails out to some companies about becoming a retailer for some bike tracking products. I found one last night that is actually pretty in-expensive. I met a guy a few years ago @ the Pamona, Ca fair show....their product was excellent. I found one that does what I'm looking for...geo-Fencing, rider down, tilt sensor......I'll make a post about it when I get more info. I know a couple of my local riders are wanting them now...
As far as following the workers, there are two. One guy is now watching the shop 24 hrs a day. Based on conversations with the owner, I'm not thinking he had anything to do with it.
now just waiting on the claims office.
