Default RE: What would you do

I've done a lot of thinking about "if" my bike was stolen and paid for enough insurance to recover the costs if it does get stolen--as I know I would be gettin a new one! Good insurance is peace-of-mind when it comes to going anywhere that I can't keep an eye on the bike. It's does **** me off to have to pay more for insurance because of thieves though.[:@]Bestof luck for your broinlaw!

There's a lot of stress involved do the financial issues. You should try to get him involved in something that will distract him. An example might be getting him to help you with a remodelling project around the house. Just avoid things that's going to remind him of the motorcycle like a mod project for your bike. It's a lack of recreational activities that you need to worry about. Get him doing stuff when it would have been riding and he'll like decide, once again, how he would really like to spend that time is riding.

What are some of the things you can do to keep the bike from being stolen? Alarm? Anything else?

Well he does keep busy being that he owns his own business.
As far as the insurance,he has all the reciepts and photos before and after upgrades.
Maybe once he gets the settlement,he might think about getting another,I hope.
