Default Theives in Myrtle Beach!

Me and a friend went to North Myrtle Beach for the 4th and we woke up this morning to find stuff missing off our bikes. I have an 08 RKC and they stole my windshield and detachable passanger backrest. He has a Softail heritage and stol his windshield and tried to turn the ignition even though it was locked. So that is broken.

If anyone is in that area and sees it pop up on craigslist or anything please let me know I dont want to have to re-buy all that stuff even though i know i will.

Keep an eye on Ebay, why do you think there is so much detachable stuff for sale on there. Ebay is a thieves best friend, way better than the local pawn shop.

I just once would like to see one of these thieves caught (preferably by a group of bikers, but the law would be fine as well).

It's not much help now, but they do make locking components for the detachable parts. See your dealer for part numbers.

I say if you catch them what you do is put your bike on a center stand of some kind. and then start it and run up to 5th gear on the stand and then put thier hands in the back rim I can promise you they will NEVER steal again. JUST A BIT OF BIKE JUSTICE
