EKN8404 0 Posted October 17, 2014 Had it parked in my spot at Lakeview Village apartments in Spring Valley. Anyone see this bike throw rocks at them. Im sure its already in Mexico with dirt wheels and tires tearing up Baja. It was a sad day in life, I have insurance but not sure if im going to buy another one anytime soon. I was looking forward to the Barstow to Vegas right but I guess not this year. If anyone see's this out anywhere please let me know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vacman 0 Posted October 17, 2014 Oh man that sucks. Love(d?) the sumo setup too. I'll keep an eye out up here. Did you have any anti-theft devices on it at all? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dirtdiver 2 Posted October 17, 2014 Scumbags. I lived in Clairemont and on occasion - if I left he garage open - it was 100% chance I would get robbed. People just out trolling - driving around looking for stuff to steal. As if it is OK for you to work hard to save $14K but they don't have to - they just have to take your stuff in an evening of marauding. Sorry for you.

TrophyHunter 15 Posted October 17, 2014 If you get a line on something to find the bike, get ahold of me ASAP - I'll PM you my cell. I can cut through the red tape - at least 'til Dec 30 - and have had success in recoveries before. Best of luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EKN8404 0 Posted October 17, 2014 Hey thanks guys. I am keeping an eye out on cl. Its pretty easy to identify the wheels. The from rim was more faded than the rear and there was a Michelin on the back with a Dunlap on the front. Most of it was stock but some of the noticable stuff was the double take mirrors, moose tail bag, acerbis 3. dessert tank, and the position was remounted. It pretty much looks like every other ktm's that are actually ridden. Im gonna be moving to Houston in January so I was thinking maybe I would sell it before I left but had plans to take it out to the dessert and do the la-b-v on it but dont look like its going to happen the way as planned. Oh and I had the handlebars locked but that thing felt skimpy and seems like you could easily snap it or something. I will have a set of dirt wheels and tires for sale in the future if I dont get it back. Maybe I should put them up right now and use as bait. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Goofy Footer 539 Posted October 18, 2014 Theives seriously suck. My good buddy bboyle9 got his DR650 stolen two days after dumping $1000 into his bike. He literally rode it to work one time after all the work was done. EKN, I hope you can still make it on some desert rides before you head east - they are good fun. If I see that bike in baja (or anywhere) I'll commondeer it back! theives Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robertaccio 406 Posted October 19, 2014 sorry for the loss, my bet is that it is very local, in some tweakers/the thieves yard or garage. Eyes open all. best of luck getting it back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
