How do you steal a Harley??
Just curious about how the criminal mind would go about stealing my bike... If the Fork is locked, and Ive got the built in security,
What does it take to steal a bike... Is it a hot wire, work the key area with a fine pin?? And if they cant start it?? what roll it away? [sm=crossbonesgif.gif][sm=forgetit.gif][sm=hail.gif]

Something strong, like a steel bar, run through the spokes of each wheel. Four strong guys to lift it into the back of an enclosed trailer. See ya.
That's why you always secure your bike to something that can't be lifted.

RE: How do you steal a Harley??
I'm not sure I can answer all/any of your questions. I can tell you though, that if someone wants something bad enough, it doesn't matter what type of security/locks you have installed, they will get it. All of these locks/security devices are mainly meant to be deterrents. If someone knows what they're doin', they'll do it, and it's gone before you know it...All I can say is sorry man! People need to learn that if something's not theirs,leave it the F*CK alone!

The only real way to keep it from happening is either a 357 magnum, 44 magnum, 12 gauge shotgun etc...to the head of the sorry theives stealing it.....Shooting someone who is stealing your transportation is in no way wrong.....Horse theives were HANGED years ago, back before folks became deballed by liberalism, and political correctness.....My wife shot a guy who broke into her aunts house where she was staying whilst attending nursing school.....That cat will never try that again.....He made a very bad decision !She's a tennessee girl, and was raised right.

You'd have to warn, then he would have to come at you in a threating mannar.
Here in California, you can have all that and still go to jail...

In some cases, three or four guys can lift a bike into a pickup or stake bed,take it to a secure location, and have it taken apart within hours...parts is parts! The videos I've seen of some thefts show the a$$hats aren't real gentle when they jack a bike, either!
