Benelli stolen ..... if seen call the number above... reward offered upon return .....Attachment 14591
Clay, any more pics? Is the headlight system changed? Transformer sticker below pillion seat?
At the time of posting I had this one.., I will try and get more...notices have been place on Wexin and Weibo...dual headlights ....
Thanks - those headlights are quite unique - although they've probably been swapped out by now. Nevertheless, eyes are open.
thank you ..... and I am sure the guy who's bike this is really appreciate the support shown .... it has a B Beijing plate .....
We hear more and more of these sad stories, with CNY approaching I'm afraid it'll get way worse.
Do u happen to know how it was stolen?
Where was it parked, for how long, how was it secured and with what kind of alarm/locks?
Double chained , one to a wall in a Hutong near Guilu...narrow streets so it appears they shattered the lock and carried the bike out of the narrow streets to a waiting van...been parking there for some time with no problems .....fairly populated area and close to inhabited dwellings.... not sure of any alarm...
Shit. Looks like pros. If they want it, they will get it. Worse, if it was pros, the bike likely already had a far-away destination planned.Quote:

Anyways, they were asked about deterrents. The ONLY item which demonstrated more than a meager 20% deterrence was a big dog. A big dog acted as a major deterrent to a whopping two thirds of respondents.
They also asked about "best time of day." The majority said the middle of the day, when things are busy. Witnesses are too busy to get involved and most people think "nah, nobody would do it in the middle of the day, out in the open - they must have a legitimate reason for busting locks". Worst time was in the dead-quiet of night when people (and barking dogs) would hear, and arouse suspicion (after all, crooks work at night, right?).
So sorry about your friend.
I wish theft insurance for motorcycles was available in China.
Very sorry about the loss. The fact that the bike was parked regularly in the same spot in a public alley means that the thieves had plenty of time to plan the theft -- watching the owner and neighbors come and go, seeing what defenses were used on the bike, and devising effective measures for defeating them.Quote:

It is by all accounts. I have been looking at buying a BMW F700GS from SH Motorrad. They have organised comprehensive insurance which includes theft cover. I recall that one of my mates here, had comprehensive insurance including theft cover on his new Harley. It seems it is available...Quote:
