How safe
Do you think your ride is pretty safe where you park when you ride to work? i am able to bring mine inside the building and park it about 3 steps
from my office door so i feel prety good about it not getting messed with, anyone have people screwing yours while at work?.

RE: How safe
Some years ago I had my sporty keyed while parked in a very secure lot at work. I never did find out who did it. Also on numerous occasions I would come out to find my handle bar switches were in positions other than what I left them in when I parked the bike. (high beam switch on high, kill button on run etc.) I started parking my sporty right next to the brick building I was working in but the final straw was one night I walked out of the building to check on my bike and here is one of the office workers (a crippled guy) pinned between the building and my bike. Seems he just wanted to sit on it and being crippled he lost his balance once he got his leg over the seat. Luckily the bike never touched the building. After that I just stopped riding it to work as it just seemed no one could leave it alone................BG

RE: How safe
I ride to work as often as I can, weather and where I have to go for the day allowing. No one has bothered my bike at all and its left all day in a large parking lot outside of the building where I work. There are a few other people who ride also and they've had no problems either. I chalk that up to having a low number of a$$holes in the building.

I have nothing to worry about from the people at work because they know what I would do if I saw any of them on my bike. The ones that I would be concerned about are the ones that walk up and down the street in front of the mill where I work.

RE: How safe
I work in the city of Bridgeport, CT (high crime area) , and I never had a problem. The security guard knows when I ride, and I park near the cameras. He has noticed people walking around the bike and looking at it, but that is something that you would see anyplace when you ride a great bike!

RE: How safe
Mine is in a very secure parking lot, and I can watch it from 3 angles on the security cam, so no worries here..
