1991 FXLR stolen 7/22/2013 between 3:30 and 5:30 PM, from victim's work parking lot on Oyster Point Blvd in SF.
CA plate # (removed, no longer needed)
VIN # 1HD...(rest removed, no longer needed)
Any information regarding this scoot should be directed to the owner, via the Craigslist posting (or PM me in case the listing expires, gets flagged, etc).
He understands it's a slim chance at best of recovering his bike, but any chance is better than no chance. Thanks in advance, and thanks for looking.

RECOVERED!
So in a strange twist of fate, he got his bike back, intact no less! Minor repairs needed, plus it's getting repainted after being involved in some ugly criminal activity. Apparently the thief was using it as a getaway vehicle and abandoned it halfway through an escape after a robbery last week. Reports are that the VIN was half scratched off on the frame, engine number was intact though. Still has a clear title even.
Woohoo!

There were no security cameras in the parking lot at his work, so we don't know how they initially got it. Might have stuffed it into the back of a pickup. Might have punched the locks on the bike right then. Might have picked the locks. Regardless, it was broad daylight in a business parking lot, alone for 2 hours, and it got pinched.
If a thief wants your stuff bad enough, they'll find a way to get it. Alarms, chains, and locks are just simple deterrents. They might stop basic and un-motivated thiefs, but not all will be swayed by the presence of security devices.
Anyway, it doesn't matter. The bike was recovered.
