Bye Bye motorcycle.

30 days is pretty standard. If that triumph is still around when my insurance pays out I'm seriously considering it, dont really care for the paint, but I'd just get an american flag airbrushed over the brit one and it'd be damn sexxy

I've heard 30 days too, but that would REALLY suck.

Did something happen to your ride too? Why are you waiting for an insurance payout?

I'm looking right now for another bike. If they find it before the insurance payout comes, I'll sell it.

Think of it as a chance to catch up on post whoring.

Seriously, sorry to hear about your bike. You should get a GS ratbike so you don't have to worry because they won't steal it since it doesn't look like it'll run.

spc · May 27, 2007, 09:39:28 PM

Yeah I got hit by a truck

I wont be riding for a few months due to injuries

IMHO stay away from the exotics, you couldn't pay me to take that 955 Daytona. Friend of mine rides a Mille and services Duc's for a dealer...parts are a nightmare. Now if you want a status symbol to buck the system they're cool. I know a guy here who has a Daytona 955 and it spends more time being fixed than he get's to ride it. Now if you want true elegance 600cc handling and litre bike find a nice honda 954.

So sorry to hear about your bike, An. I hope karma majorly bites those $%^&@#$ thieves in the @$$!

annguyen1981 · May 28, 2007, 05:48:54 PM

I blame AJ, Pastrami, and Alpha...

They just INSISTED that we meet together for lunch/dinner.

After we finished our food, we went outside and sat near the R6. Almost everyone that drove by looked at the bike, and there were a handful of people that honked as us too.

Strange people.

The strangest was a funny looking guy with a funny looking hat walking around the outside of the restaurant.

Creepy.

Aren't you from Lee?

BTW... Now I REALLY want my GS back!!! I'll be by tomorrow to pick it up.

pandy · May 28, 2007, 06:19:52 PM

I'm behind...I didn't even realize ya' sold your GS...I was thinking that at least ya' had your GS as a backup.

annguyen1981 · May 28, 2007, 06:33:00 PM

Yeah... Bluelespaul (Matt) bought my GS. I'm glad she is making a new street rider happy, but I miss the GS days.

actually, I also miss the R6 days too.

Onlypastrana199 · May 28, 2007, 07:25:34 PM

Matt, you're from Lee?? Why did you come to meet us too?! You should come into the chat room..if you don't know how..find me on AIM or do a search for the IRC chat..

AJ and I are right across the border...I know some killer roads down that way...

yup, im from little old lee. An told me about how you guys were meeting up last friday or when ever that was and i was thinking about heading down, but i was busy looking for a ride to the prom after party that night haha. ill try to find the chat room too, sometime we should have one big meet up n ride. i think next weekend me and a few Pittsfield kids are gonna try to go for a ride if i we all have a day off.

EDIT: oh and An, i posted a bulletin on myspace and a thread in a bike group on myspace asking people to keep there eyes open for the yzf. i put in a link of the video of the yellow headlights and that flashy bar thing under the tail light so they would know what to look for. hopefully itll turn up in one piece.

Thankz Matt.

I've already registered the bike as stolen on sites like www.stolen-bike.com. I'm just hoping that the asshats get what they deserve (and more).

makenzie71 · May 29, 2007, 12:05:15 AM

I could say "that's what you get for buying the WORLD'S MOST STOLEN BIKE EVER" but I doubt it'll do little good. Good luck getting it back...if do, sell it, or someone will steal it again. Get a CBR or a GSXR...less GSXR's are stolen than any other supersport.

blue05twin · May 29, 2007, 07:21:04 AM

From what I read GSX-R's are the number 1 stolen bike and the number two was the yammi

. Doesn't really matter either way. if you own a sportbike people will try to steal it.

Hey An sorry about your bike being stolen, hope it works out soon weather they recover it or wright it off as a total loss.

frye · May 29, 2007, 08:25:04 AM

gsxrs come up missing all the time around here

. but yea all sport bikes are at risk now a days

makenzie71 · May 29, 2007, 10:05:19 AM

maybe it's changed by now, but by the end of 2005 the YZF-R6 had become the world's most stolen bike of all time. There were more R6's stolen than any other MAKE.

natedawg120 · May 29, 2007, 11:43:30 AM

I think the most stolen would probably coorilate to the most bought. I know that there are a shaZam! ton of the old style r6s out there but not so many of the 06 or newer. Plus, when they finked out on their boasted 15.5k redline, or whatever it was supposed to be a lot of people didn't buy it.

Bye Bye motorcycle.
