Stolen '08 Honda CBR at work in Culver City, CA.

[jhalton]

Doesn't even look like they did anything and then it was gone. Did you get money back from the insurance company?

[TruAzn100]

do these theives take off there plate whenever they do this? or jjust the front?

[TheLAMike08]

Wow would you look at that, they were WHITE! I don't want to hear anymore racist bs. Whites steal to.

[MrKenneth1985]

@TheLAMike08 yeah but you dont hear about it as much.

[ninjabob52]

@kennit1000 what if someone accidentally dials the wrong number?

[a7g1000]

@kennit1000 thats funny as helllll

[oManelJoao]

First thing I did on my 2011 Cb600F hornet was installing GPS tracker with remote control.

They can steal it, sure, but you can bet your ass they won't be very long with it x)

[Antonio001z]

@oManelJoao can you let me know where i can get the tracker from and how it works thanks?

[oManelJoao]

@Antonio001z There are several on the market. What I use (and it works great) is from GEMINI, an italian company. w w w.gemini.ee

Although you'll have to find a reseller in your country. It's very simple. All you need is the tracker and a SIM card. Then you take it to the electrician to the set up (or if you know how to do it yourself, do it).

Afterwars it works through GPS and GSM. You send a text to the SIM card (e.g. loc#password#) and you receive the gps coordinates. There are also extras

[oManelJoao]

@Antonio001z to the alarm. Like perimeter sensor, movement sensor, etc. If someone gets too close to the vehicle, you receive a text. If someone sits down on top of the vehicle, you receive a text.

The main features are tracking (where is it, what speed, block the engine, arm the alarm, disarm, set up a periodic check, etc.) Very useful if you ask me. I can leave my bike virtually anywhere with no problems.

The only problem is the price (I paid €500 for my system) but it's a small price to pay

[oManelJoao]

@Antonio001z btw, the name of the system is "gemini Gtracker".

[Antonio001z]

@oManelJoao ok thanks so much for the info . .i am only just getting into motorbikes . .getting tired on spending heaps on my car and getting smashed by R1s . .thanks again for the info . .also if i buy the alarm and tracker for my first bike and then later when i upgrade will i be able to take the same set up and put it on a new bike? thanks

[oManelJoao]

@Antonio001z In theory, yeah. If it was installed correctly with no lousy shortcuts. All you need to do is uninstall and install on the new bike.

Btw, riding a bike is very different from a car. Anyone can gas up on the car and achieve high speeds easily. In a motorcycle it takes some experience to actually take 100% advantadge of the ride. Aside from that, virtually any 600cc+ is faster than your average car. My Hornet does 100km/h in first gear lol, top speed 260km/h capped by factory default

[Antonio001z]

@oManelJoao Fuck that is beast . . the fastest i ever got in a car was in a friends senator and we got 320km/h in the straight away . . as for the bike I'm looking at getting a cbr250rr simply because i goggled fastest learner legal bike in Australia and that's what came up . . I haven't got much riding experience so i probably wont start pushing it straight away but if i get in the zone like ow i used to when i would go for drives in my car i should be fine . .

[oManelJoao]

@Antonio001z np. You should watch this video and see what I'm talking about:

youtube. com /watch?v=VPNs3v4m7TA

[Antonio001z]

@oManelJoao thats a nice vid but is the kawasaki zx-10 faster than the duke?

[Antonio001z]

@Antonio001z can you give me any tips on what i should do when i go for my first ride ?? thanks again for the info

[YKPAIHA82]

This is a good way to get killed!!!! People got BaLLs..........

[DaRkiCarbOnz]

damn motorcycle thieves have a special place in hell! Better where short sleeves its gonna be hot where your going.

[theballer6465]

gosh...i know that feelin. woke up and went to my shed and my 05 yz125, '10 250f, and 06 450f were gone.

[scdeanor]

For all of you thieves, hope you fall over dead

[kurtistjones]

guys better be carefull some peoples bikes are like there kids, and goes without saying what would you do to the guy that kidnapped your kid, lot more to loose than a night in jail and a fine, good luck robbers hope you dont cross my path and my gps unit under my tank lol

[CALI2TEXBOY]

@kurtistjones lmao dude dont tell them where ur gps is at hahaha nah jk a bout how much 1 of those gps cost? well whatever it cost ima have to get me 1.  my baby worth it :)

[Carltheproducer]

@kennit1000. LMAO! I'm going to do some investigating and see how much and how safe this idea would be.

[placeboringnamehere]

@Carltheproducer good idea until someone dials the wrong number while you're on a ride...

[xxreaper487]

so i know this video is kinda old, but were you ever able to recover the bike??

[Carltheproducer]

@xxreaper487. No, I wasn't able to recover the bike. I'll never forget my SOCAL AAA insurance rep on the phone chuckling when I said, "What's my chances of recovering my baby?" Her (laughing), "Sorry honey but in my two years of working here, I've had about 200 bikes stolen in SoCal and I've only ever once recovered a bike." So either anyone who calls her for a claim is cursed or SoCal is truly a rough place to have a nice bike.

[shootnmove]

@kennit1000

best idea i have ever heard

just hope it doesnt malfunction

HAH

[smdnigga]

ill recommend everyone to get lojack on their bike.. i hate parking my bike outside too -_____- 8k seating out in the parking lot.

[Democratzach]

We need 2 build a fucking wall.

[Democratzach]

this makes me wanna carry a gun.

[mitsubishidiamante]

i hope these fuckers get caugh in the act and get shot in the head point blank

[DQ555]

This shit get me sooo FUCKING piss off!!!

My GSX-R K9 was stolen 3 weeks ago, in front of my college campus in board daylight!!!!! And I had a alarm system on it too. ~_0....?!?!?!

[praisehim805]

that took them what like 40seconds, under a minute not too bad..sry for your loss

[Carltheproducer]

@praisehim805. Ha! Yeah, definitely professionals. That's why I can't hate to much, at least some skilled bastards stole it instead of punk-ass kids.

[Hollandboi22]

i heard about repo guys using this same method when repoing bikes, they use vans instead of big ass trucks. google it.

[adamtw6]

Cant even leave your bike at work god dam.

[boogie504]

fucking losers will get what they deserve somehow, someday, someway

[cyorng]

that just sucks ass. people like that make me sick. sorry bro! hope you had that insured? hope you find it. i guess garages come in handy!

[vertuccic]

That's just ridiculous!Makes my blood boil! You might want to check the local enterprises as that looked like a base mini-van and most thugs, thiefs and other scumbags number one do not use their personally owned vehicles to do crimes in and two generally don't drive mini-vans. Maybe you'll get lucky and enterprise will remember a renter that just didn't quite fit the typical mini van renter profile. A needle in the haystack but if you have exhausted all leads it may be an avenue to consider.

[hivpozbud]

FUCK that just pisses me off! I hope these bastards get caught and have their balls cut off! Good luck on getting it back.  LoJack...I have it on my CB900F.
