Sorry to hear this, sailer.
Leo's right, strange things do happen. Know of a person whose car got stolen. Months later in a parking lot he accidentally pushed the unlock on that car's keys (said he never had bothered to take off the keys, didn't know why not). And his old car beeped and flashed its lights down the row from him.
So you never know, your scoot might make an appearance and you'll get it back. I hope.

I know this sounds bad but people bring me their recovered scoots all the time a few came with police escorts brought soon as found and they all have been tore up badly wires mangled and wrecked. Guess most crooks don't know you can simply unplug the ignition and kick start it.

A scumbag thief will figure out a way to steal something if they want it bad enough. The idea is to make it unappealing as possible so the thief either has to work real hard or simply doesn't try.

yeah, sucks for sure! I am a fairly well known guy on the docks of the New bedford waterfront, so I do have a network of some "not-so classy guys (if you catch my drift). These poor souls do not know the scope of the mistake they made. I wouldn't want to be them if they are found by my associates before the police.These kids are the young bucks who have no idea of what they just did.or who they did it to. You sound so bad . Lol! I'm just picturing the mob going after their bosses stolen scooter. You don't know who you're messing with boys, give us our bosses scooter or you'll be swimming with the fishes. I hope your fellas don't come looking for me for making fun of your super machismo post.

Now I'm picturing Marlon Brando as The Godfather putting around on a little scoot-scoot....

I hope your fellas don't come looking for me for making fun of your super machismo post. I hope you never have anything stolen from you and receive no justice. I'm sure sailracer isn't going to do anything foolish and going to jail ,himself for taking the law into his own hands because a scooter isn't worth doing this however if he can find out who stole it having them prosecuted would be nice.
Last year at a open pecan orchard where the owner allows the public to come pick up the scrap pecans left that the auto-pickers miss my wife and I witnessed two teenage boys opening the door on our vehicle and the end result was they took a $20 car phone charger. We were way down in the orchard but we still seen it, don't know why I didn't lock it, mainly I figured it wouldn't be bothered and there wasn't anything to steal except this charger, who would want it?
So I approached the boys and their grandfather was also picking up pecans and asked them to return my charger. They immediately denied having my charger even though I witnessed them taking it and the grandfather got real indignant and told me to back off and leave. I called the county sheriff and told them what happened and my location. The grandfather saw me on the phone and asked me if I called the law and I told him I dang sure did and they were on the way.
He threw the charger on the ground and then called me a vulgar name. When the law arrived I told them what happened and they wanted to blow it off since I had my charger back and no harm done, didn't agree with this and told them I was going to press charges with or without their help. Had the grandfather helped, apologized, had the boys apologize I would have let it go.
At the court appearance the judge basically asked me what I was trying to accomplish since I had my charger back and all was well, I proceeded to let him know a crime had been committed and that the a guilty verdict was needed and since it was of a small nature that public service for these boys was in order IMO. He then said I was correct and that people should stand up for their rights more often instead of just swallowing the wrongs people swallow. The grandfather had to be contained by the court officers and ended up getting fined himself as an accomplish. As we were leaving the grandfather got up in my face and told me that I might not need to go back to pick up pecans in that lonely isolate orchard any more and let him see me. I got close enough to him that he could count the hairs in my nostrils and let him know I survived war and it would take a lot more than him to make me afraid to go anywhere.
My wife and I picked up 2 five gallon buckets of pecans in the same orchard just two weeks ago and man they are sure good.

Gotta keep your cool let the police handle them. Even though it would be nearly impossible for me to not close line the driver off my bike if I saw it out. One of my customers bike got stolen his 50cc he had a 150cc also he saw his bike out the guy tried to out run him on the 50 of course he caught him on his 150. He held the guy down till the cops arrived guy was arrested and he got his bike back. He was lucky only the ignition was drilled out no other damage.

If I locate an item that was stolen from me, I'm taking it back with lethal force if necessary. The pigs are as useless as tits on a board.
