So I went to a lunch meeting with some family members and decided to take my bike because I was going to split for some riding right after, I got off my bike and we had a long lunch at a popular restaurant and long talk. When I came back I was shocked and horrified to see that I left my keys in the ignition, I just pushed the red "off" button and jumped off. What amazes me is not that someone didn't stole my bike (only 1 in 25 people know how to ride motorcycles), what amazed me was that nobody grabbed my set of keys and just threw them out to a garbage can of something, or twisted it off inside my bike's ignition.

Wait so... someone stole your bike?
 
It's fixed now..... I wish someone did steal it so I REALLY had a reason to get my 2011 650R Ninja :)
 
I left my helmet sitting on my tank over night...surprised no one took that.

Just because those are things you would likely do (based on your comment that you would crash and dash) doesn't mean everyone else in this world would... I've never actually heard of some one messing up the ignition other than in attempts to steal the bike, plus the keys don't have to be in the bike for some one to mess up your ignition...

I saw some one leave their keys in and the ignition on in some cruiser at royal last monday. i just turned the ignition off so the battery wouldn't be drained and left the keys in the bike. There's no need to be a vandal or a thief, plus you don't **** with some one's ride. I'm also not sure where you get your stat of 1 in 25 people know how to ride a motorcycle...

lmao I did that at Ride for Site. Was looking for a good half hour and I was about to move the tent to check under there then I rememberd where I put them.
 
A few days ago I left my bike on the street over night for the first time (in the city). Some low-life made a half-a55ed attempt at stealing it, or so I would guess based on the gouges I found around the ignition the next day. I was hesitant to do it, but it seemed like a nice neighbourhood -- apparently not. :(

I'm sure it would have been gone if I'd forgotten the key.

To avoid forgetting I always lock my steering wheel using the key and attach it to my keychain...then i do everything else...It is easy enough for me
 
I forgot mine in the ignition once. Never again. Nothing happened but it did give me a spook that i would forget them like that. The whole ride home all i could think about was what ifthis happened and what if that happened. Now its keys in pocket first, then gear.
 
I leave my keys in the ignition all the time. If they are going to steal your bike, they are going to steal it no matter what. Chances that A ) Someone is just going to walk up and steal it, and B ) That person is of the 2% that actually knows how to ride a motorcycle is just as slim as someone cutting a lock and loading it into a van.

If they can get passed a stearing lock. Mine is ALWAYS steering locked even if i'm just running into a store for two seconds. Its just a little more of a turn of the key so why not?
