My bike was stolen this morn

[jason07]

There was a significant difference on mine between liability + theft versus full coverage.

exactly!! Liability plus theft (comprehensive coverage only) is actually quite affordable.

Theft coverage on a Texas Motorcycle policy is covered under the comprehensive section of the policy.

That being said, my insurance was $75 a month with this coverage and I was about 27 at the time.

I had just liability and theft on mine, not comprehensive. So if it was stolen I was covered but if I wrecked it I was responsible for fixing it. Wasn't that expensive for me when compared to full coverage.

Same here, but I also had lojack on my last nice bike. Nobody wanted to steal my stunt moped or aprillia.

Probably because it is stupid high on a sport bike. Mine was stolen, recovered, and I still don't have full coverage. Cheapest I could find was around 150 a month. Had the bike 5 years that would be 9k in insurance.....2k more than i paid for the bike new. You play the odds and hope yours doesn't get jacked.

Paul, I can't believe as long as you worked at the bike dealership, and you working there when my bike got stolen, that you wouldn't have comprehensive insurance. Hell that's all I had and I'm damn glad I did.

yep. Plus then I'd at least still have something to ride. I was actually about to sell the bike and get something else. Had been trying to find what I wanted.

more than anything I'd hope to find the bike just to find the person that has it...


Another business in the lot sorta SW of my work always has an R6 parked on the sidewalk. I noticed today that it had a swingarm mount for the license plate, and the plate was nowhere to be found on it. then it hit me when I was already on 35 that I shoulda gone in and asked if his plate had been stolen. if it had, then I could at least give the FWPD an update that my bike might have that tag # on it now.

Why did you not have theft ins. on a sportbike? Even if it wasn't the most popular model, it looked nice in the pics.

or maybe that bike is also stolen....and whoever is riding it is the same person that staked yours out....knew exactly when you came to work, left, etc. Just a thought.....

I would think so since I believe he didn't have theft on his insurance.

After what's probably been done to it (rattle canning for instance) do you even really want it back now?

I think I saw it, but it was grey, black and said gsx-r on it.

Lol at the teal cavalier..

[Frank]

used to drive me nuts when well-meaning friends and family would say things after my teal 93 vert was stolen, "Hey, I think I saw a car just like yours last week in WalMart's parking lot, but I didn't bother to write down the tag" or "Hey I think I saw a car just like your but it was red and it wasn't a convertible. It was headed toward Garland. Who knows, it might have been it."

I had one person so convinced they found it that I followed them to an apartment complex, it was a damn teal Cavalier convertible they were looking at.

HTF does that help me? Just keep your mouth shut unless you are standing looking at it or have a tag number or something.

Good luck man!
