Figure us Honda lovers need to look out for each other.  :)

J Wilde steal it? It could be a companion piece to his 350. Put up a pic of what it would look like with platinum pipe-wrap on it.

No leopard skin seat so I think it is safe from his hipster clutches.

Motorbike robbers should be treated same as horse thieves of yesteryear. A tree, a rope . . .

I've been on the look out all weekend, that shop is right near my garage and jobs.  Sadly, there is a police station right there.

Fair play for looking out Mr TG

I will tell my son, whom lives near Prospect Park to look out for it.

While you are at this endeavor,
could you find Mr. Singletary in Florida whom stole my 1972 Suzuki GT250 in 1976
as the police would not do anything back then.

(sorry about the thread hijack, but do you seriously believe you'll find your bike in a city the size of New York?)

it happens.  sometimes its kids joyriding and they crash it a block or two away.  sometimes its parked in the nearest projects. last summer 2 friends bikes were stolen 1 mile away from each other and they were found on the street by the projects next to each other. 

But you have a better chance of beating a speeding ticket then finding a stolen bike.

Eh, it is a unique bike and you never know, stranger things happen all the time.  ;)

If I can help a fellow Honda rider out with a thread I figure why not?

Too true. Didn't mean to sound disrespectful or anything.
I and my brother have both have several motorcycles stolen in Florida and New Hampshire and only got one back.......
The one I got back (in 1979)was because I called the guy whom stole it and threatened to beat him to a pulp if he didn't return it. Before , I had called the local cops in a small southern New Hampshire town and they said, "We are only on duty 8am-5pm, mon-friday! so call the state police."
The state police refused to get involved because it was only a Honda CB450 that wasn't worth more than $2,000.00 and not worth their time. :-(
