You're wasting your breath. There will always be people who go through life whose reasoning is primarily based on "possibilities" without any regard for probabilities. The insurance industry counts on this, and they are winning.

Someone should sticky this: http://www.gtamotorcycle.com/vbforum/showthread.php?139773-Condo-Retards

OP, sorry about your loss. Live and learn.

So do casinos.

There is no motorcycle protection that lowers chances of being stolen except a few things:

A. A house
B. A dog of two
C. A firearm (though the legal ones in Canada suck).
D. A benchbar (I'm sure people bigger than me could use it as a weapon)

And if you're in the states, go to your local wal-mart and pick up a real rifle, some states even let you equip a silencer so you don't wake up your neighbors. DERP DERP!

EDIT: Forgot, drop it a few hundred times or scratch the fairings, making it ugly might work! Or as somebody else suggested, cover it in dog poo and put a scented 1k bill away from it.

Not so my friend. My brother sleeps with his legally acquired Remington 270 express 12-gauge under his bed. The sheer energy that gun expels would make a mess of a man. It's no wussy rifle, its a people stopper.

Look up gun licensing and you'll see there are two kinds of licenses you can acquire. Unrestricted (rifles/shotguns/long barrels) which is a one day course + RCMP check, or a two day unrestricted + restricted + RCMP check course which allows you to deal with handguns as well.

unlike the states you are only allowed to transport restricted weapons from your home directly to the gun club. No tim hortons, no grocery shopping, a to b.

Thanks for stating the obvious. No one is freaking out, begging for sympathy and crying themselves to sleep at night over this. I fully admit I made a mistake, and already prepared to take the loss. However, I don't think my mistake forfeits my ability to ask the community to keep an eye and ear open if they happen to see my bike on the road. Let's keep perspective here, I'm not an 18 year old kid that borrowed mommy's money for something I couldn't afford.

Very well said, Derek. Nothing like being kicked when you're down, eh? Sorry about your bike. Hope someone is able to help you out. And Yamahar1. "Common people"? Try "come on people".
 
Sorry about your loss, My bike was stolen a few weeks ago as well. I've seen you around the neighbourhood a couple of times. I live at Warden and 407 (Rouge Bijou) Condos. Hope they recover yours!
 
Awe this sucks, hope you get it back.

As for the gun under the bed, its not allowed to be there unless its in a safe and unloaded with the ammo locked elsewhere. I hope know one here knows you here cause that was pretty silly posting info like that that can get your bro in trouble.

I'm assuming you're responding to toshison?
A non-restricted firearm doesn't have to be in a safe.
 
Sorry about your loss. It's not your fault that your bike got stolen. You are the victim.

I saw monster edition with your paint scheme in Shelburne on Saturday, (right before my wife and I pick up 3 tickets) It had an aftermarket exhaust but I am not sure what the exhaust brand was. I know it's a long shot but you never know.

Good luck in finding your bike.

Well, there's some news today, contacted the officer that was originally helping me, said the case has been handed over to a detective, but was still nice enough to look up the case report. My damn condo still hasn't sent the surveillance tapes to the police yet, but somehow they have a suspect, which is surprising. Not getting my hopes up, but at least it's something.

Any further information on this?... You seem like a decent guy and I really wish you the best of luck finding your bike!

Sorry your right, just noticed now he said 12 gauge. I assumed it was a hand gun from Jamies post. My bad.

shelburne tickets? from highway 10 superburger to town? or on the otherside of town ?
 
My eyes are open brother...
 
Shi*ty deal indeed OP. There is one at my place of work most of the time. I'll look at the vin next time around if I see the bike again. I'm assuming that if I do, it wasn't your bike and it isn't the one you're missing. Either way, sounds like a no win. :/
 
Thanks again for all the support, haven't been able to get an update from the detective working the case, and building security has not been of any help or usefulness to this point in time. It's been a week and a half and I'm still not sure if they ever got the surveillance tapes to the police. The operator at the police station reiterated what I found out last week, that there is still no record of any evidence submitted, and that they have a suspect.

Hope everyone enjoyed the long weekend and the (mostly) good weather we had during it!

It's funny that bike has the same mods too (Akra exhaust, same led turn signals, same plate delete, but no velcro sticker), but Nigel's had it for two years now. Please don't go out of your way to get him in trouble ^^;

(I'm the one with (had) the green 250)

Sorry to hear about your loss, but if you think there arent that many monster editions around, your fooling yourself...Its actually very very popular, I own one, 2 more of my fiends own them as well. And just the other day while driving in Toronto I saw 3 on the road within a 20 min drive...

looks like there are 6 suspects so far.
 
+1 I have learned more about motorcycles and cycling reading these forums in the last month than I had in the 18 years I have had my bike license.

Join date of Aug 10 and you slept ok knowing your bike was parked in condo parking uninsured? This is not the first thread like this, this year. At first I thought it was a joke. With a post count of 10, that's a 1000 dollars per post. If he was paying attention to GTAM he probably would still have his bike.

You can't blame someone for coming on to a site that thousands of local bike enthusiasts visit (who know bikes well enough to be able to tell them apart) to have their eyes peeled and ears on the ground. He's basically made it impossible to sell this bike to this (relatively large local motorycle) community.. so the bike needs to be sold elsewhere (which was already likely the case, but the principle still applies). The harder it is for theives to move these things, the better as far as I'm concerned.

The above aside, the more people like you come and whine about "I'm tired of reading this.. .I'm sick of hearing about this.. " the less likely someone else is going to to do it next time. In turn, people won't be reminded... people may even think its safe to park their bikes in condos or to not lock up their chains... more bikes will be stolen. This is a problem worth being reminded about constantly to nausea if it's a means to an end (which it may not be, but it's not making it worse either).

I'm sure the OP is sorry to have runied your day. Get over yourself.
