All man I'm sorry to hear that neutronbomb

That really suck's!! I found a handlebar mount alarm system that work's on motorcycles and look's like it would work great on Motorized Bike's. I'll get the info and link and post it. Do you have a pic of your bike? If you do post it, with anyluck somebody might see it. I used a electric pencil and scribed my bicycle serial number onto my motor that way if the motor ever got seperated from the bike I could ID it if it came up for sell somewhere. Keep a eye on e-bay and local newspaper and craigslist, also keep checking local police auctions, it might turn up. I also always register my bicycle with the National Bike registry.

Do not let your bike end up at a police auction

National Bike Registry - Prevent Theft: Register your bike in the NBR Database!

Handle bar mounted alarm; battery powerd,110db, 2 number security code to arm and disarm, less then 3oz

Here goes the link I hope it works, if it does not go to JCWhintney.com, go to motorcycles and click on the alarm section

I kinda know who stole my motorcycle a couple of years back, but the local sherriff didn't even want to come out and make a report! When they finally did come out, he didn't want to get out of the car and look around....he asked me "Is the bike still on the property?" I was livid and said "What the F do you think I called you guys for, a picnic?!?" He said "If you don't calm down, I may have to arrest you for disorderly conduct."

I gave up, thank God I moved out of that county....

About 30 or so years ago I had Honda stolen from me.
Same story.
The thieves were related to the Chief of Police.

I'm 99.9% sure it was the step father and two brothers of the woman who hit me head on when she was drunk behind the wheel....it was there way of "paying me back" for their poor Norma having to go to jail for 30 days for DUI. My daughter said she saw a loud pick-up driving back and forth that night, and then in the middle of the night, she heard a loud truck or car slow down and stop for a few minutes, then take off. They had a loud truck and drove by all the time leering at the house or anyone in the yard as their form of "intimidation". They were a bunch of inbreds who didn't have 25 teeth between the three of them and an I.Q to match.

As for the sherriff/deputies, they were just extremely lazy, over paid goobers that didn't want to do anything. I even called there a few times for an update, to see if they found it or found anything out about it, and their responce was "Wall you kin come down here an have a look at th' impound yard ta see if yer bikes here." Last year they confiscated a hundred marijuana plants from a commercial grower and within a week, somebody broke into the "evidence trailer" and took it all....inside job? I think so.

There is a certain bond between a cowboy & his horse, and the same is true for us modern day "cowboys & motorized horses". I am developing a bond with the Kid, how he/she wants to be started, funny little noises ect. and I haven't ridden him 300 ft., I can't imagine riding at leisure on a tropical island like Cruiser. Then to have it taken away,stolen, this thing that you made. Well there might be an expensive answer-Lo-Jack makes a device for motorcycles, I'm just now looking for a dealer in the area to talk to so I'll have to get back to you on cost. I didn't keep score on building the Kid but it's close to $900.00 so it's something to think about.Happy Trails Walter F.
