Seriously - WTF?

I'm not familiar with the Deuce. Does it have a Fob, or just an ignition lock like my 97 Bad Boy?

No mention of him locking the front fork.

That was disturbingly fast. I got an ‘03 XL1200C Sportster, same paint as the one in video... all it has is a ignition switch/key lock. Thieves suck.

Would a FOB security, and locking fork ignition slow down a thief? I have to admit, that for a quick stop, I’ve shut it off, jumped off, and out the helmet on the seat.

Loud pipes might have alerted the owner of the theft. I would have run outside and done a flying leap on the scum.
The thief does not know how to ride.

That sucks! What are the chances some scumbag motorcycle thief is going to be at the same place and the same time as a guy who pulls up to a liquor store?

I didn't watch the video. But this makes me chuckle.
