Welp, I'm no longer a Ducatisti, courtesy of the quickest loving bike theft in history. Literally in the time it took me to pay for petrol two little cunts managed to bundle my bike away to places unknown. I assume they had a van or something round the corner because it's a long, straight road and there's no way they ran it out of sight in the time it took me to notice and start looking.

You know what's just occured to me, and hurt me far more than losing the bike? My family have bought me loads of stuff for the bike for Christmas, and all their effort and money has been wasted.

There are no sufficient words for how enraging bike thieves are. Could you not do crimes that are so costly and damaging to others and give nothing back to society?! Why are people so broken? I'm sorry you lost your ducati, man. That is the pits on every level. Were you the one with the scrambler, or did you have some super fancy superbike?

Just curious, did you have the steering column locked? I always feel stupid doing that for less than 5 minutes but maybe I'm justified.

I'm normally pretty careful about it but I was in a hurry and must have forgotten. Just gone over my helmet footage and it was 127 seconds from me turning my back on the bike to coming back out. Unbelievable. Coydog posted:There are no sufficient words for how enraging bike thieves are. Could you not do crimes that are so costly and damaging to others and give nothing back to society?!

I left my bike outside a shop one night to get the tires changed the next day. When I came back to pick it up I made a comment to the guy from the shop about how I probably should have locked my steering. He shrugged and said "they just pull up next to it with a truck or flatbed with 2 or 3 big guys and throw it on. Locking the steering would make no difference." So, it probably wouldn't have mattered. They don't really care about dinging it up or breaking plastics, they only care about getting out of there quickly. There really is nothing you can do vs a determined thief other than good insurance. Hope they find your bike.

Here's a long reddit discussion with a former bike thief. Lots of interesting insights. https://www.reddit.com/r/motorcycles/comments/t5shp/ex_thief_chopshop_operator_ama Takeaway from that: if you don't want your bike stolen, don't own a modern sport bike, and don't park it outside. Otherwise someone who wants it is going to get it. If it was stolen by a professional, chances of getting it back are near-zero because it's parted out within 24 hours.

I bet they just camp the petrol station until someone comes in with a tasty bike. Depending on how dodgy the oval office who runs/works at the petrol station is, he might even make the blind spots on the CCTV known to interested parties.

I've now heard of at least two other people who've had an identical thing happen at the same place. In both cases it was local kids and the bike got burned out when they couldn't get it started. It's just such a pointless way for a bike to go - if it were a gang of international jewel thieves looking for an awesome getaway vehicle then it'd be a different matter.

As someone who has had 2 bikes stolen, and multiple attempts all I can say is that you can't dwell on it. It will make you bitter and paranoid. You'll start to resent even having a bike after a while. There isn't much you can do about someone that stole a bike that fast. Even if you locked your steering, used disc locks, and covered it at the gas station they would have probably grabbed the bike. Hopefully you'll get the bike back with little to no damage, and if not then I hope the bike thieves burn in a special place in hell.
