Stolen bike
Well it happened,not mine but my broinlaws.We trailered our bikes up to Las Vegas.We stayed at the MGM Grand.We road to Laughlin on friday and got back late on sat at 1 am.Parked the bikes in the parking garage in a section for bikes.
The next morning my wife and I were supose to meet my broinlaw and 2 other couples at the bikes for a ride to Valley of Fire.My wife and I were the first ones to the bikes a noticed his bike was not there.At first we thought he had taken his bike to the trailer to clean it up.So I called him and and they were still in their room.Of course they did not believe me about his bike notbeing there.
So him and his wife came down.The next thing we thought was that our other buddies had moved his bike.Well that was not the case.
Called security.My broinlaw and his wife went with them to file a report.
The security cameras showed a black male mid thirtys walking around his bike at about 1:50 am.Got on the bike and was gone in about a minute.
When we parked the bikes that morning,my broinlaw and his wife and me and my wife had gone to our rooms.The other couples stayed at the bikes for a few minutes later.One of couples then left for their room.
Our other buddie took his wife on his bike to drop his wife at the hotel entrance because her feet were killing her.He return to the parking area at about 1:30am to park his bike.
The thief must have been there watching all this and then made his move.
The bike was a black'05 Road King Custom,dragonfly fairing,16" sqaure apes,Low Life Kustoms Co2 rear shocks,black hard bags, ton of chrome and to many other thing to list.

RE: Stolen bike
It seems like you brow in law forgat to lock it, because of the video being gone in less than a minute...makes me think..
Anyhow that sucks for him, hopefully he has insurance and get as much money as possible back.....
good luck to him!!!

RE: Stolen bike
Major suckage.
If mine was stolen, I dont think I would ever want to see it again.
Had a friend whos car was returned about 3 weeks later and beaten to ****.
Insurance wanted to repair rather than replace.

RE: Stolen bike
Wow sorry to hear that.... Thats one reason I use a disk lock well. I know if the want it they will get it but that will at least stop someone from from just jumping on it taking off.
