My bike was stolen last night. My neighbor went looking around while I called the cops. My neighbor found it under a tarp, on its side 3 houses down. Cop took about 20 mins to finally get there and was a complete ass. The cop didn't give a damn about anything that happened. We walked over to the bike, he called in the plates to confirm it was registered to me. Took a few pictures, lifted it and I rode it back. I asked the cop what he needs for his report and he said "I've been getting it". His report was about 10 works, including my name and phone #. I knew the cops didn't care about this part of town but didn't know it was this bad.
I had called a week before about them stealing a TV that they set behind my neighbors house and I guess were going to come back to. Twice in a row I've called and NOTHING has been done. I figured with a 5000 500lb motorcycle they might try a little harder.
The cop wouldn't even knock on the door to ask questions. And worse, after identifying the bike the cop says I'm going to go get my camera. I said "what if someone comes out with a gun"? He says"well you can stand over here" as he pointed to the side of the house.
So yes, a police officer left me on the scene by myself.
Few parts bent and banged up. They managed to drop it on both sides. The bike was 100% flawless 12 hours ago.
If anyone has upgraded clutch handle, I'm looking for a straight one if you don't need it. Let me know.
Also, the foot break lever is bent. I doubt anyone has upgraded that but if so, I'd like to get your old one.
Bar ends are both scratched, so if you have some stockers laying around, I'm buying.
Clutch cover and left side engine casing are scratched up but most people don't have those laying around.
The graphics on the fairing are scratched up but nothing went though the clear coat of paint so I'm going to have to strip the decals.
@CC, where did you get your decals?
There is more damage but I have to focus on studying for my test this afternoon. That college degree is more important than the motorcycle. Just sucks that I worked so hard for it and it was like new before this crap happened.
My dad was furious about the way the officer handled everything and called the chief on duty. He was as big of a jackass as the officer that came to the scene. I'm here for the sule purpose of going to college. This town has gone to crap in the three years I've been here but my family bought the house so I have to stay for my last year. Not looking forward to it. Nothing will change if nothing is enforced. I see people get arrested occasionally but then I see them sitting on their front porch the next day. I love that our tax money pays for them to live in those houses.
So if anyone has some spare parts I may need, let me know. Thanks. You can PM on here or email me at [email protected]
