I hope he breaks his fuckin neck riding it!
Damn, I'm new to this forum, but just let me say this is the first time I have read a theft thread where the dickhead was actually caught. Glad they got one of the guys, hopefully you can get your bike or another one fixed up.
John,
If the insurance doesn't cover the full cost (which it sounds as though it won't), check with Littleton on getting help from the victims assistance fund.
Hell, we all pay into it with every traffic ticket, about time it pays out.
Be assured that a walk through the ocean of most souls would scarcely get your feet wet.
Any new news on this? I love hearing about thieves that get caught!

I got an email from the detective working the case and it will be months before anything like a trial happens. My insurance estimate is better than I expected so it should cover the parts that I need. I should have her rebuilt in a month or so.

I rarely think of motorcycles without a little yearning. They are about moving, and humans, I think, yearn to move its in our cells, in our desires. We quiet our babies with cyclic movement, and we quiet ourselves by going.

Great news. Glad you got your bike back. I just hope the justice system deals with him properly, to often they get off easy.
As far as 4 strokes are concerned, there are some 110 lb riders that race motocross 450's. I know one guy from work your size who had a 250 4 stroke WR that upgraded to a 450 and never looked back. It is all about what you are comfortable with. Good luck with getting your bike back together. One advantage 2 strokes have is they are much easier to rebuild the top end.

Hey John, sorry to hear it, but glad as hell they caught the fucktard. should we plan the beatdown?
Best of luck man!

Welp, shes finally back together better than new. As for the perps, the one caught with my gear pleaded guilty to attempted burglary and was sentenced to three years probation, 80 hours community service and $3,576 of restitution ($1,755 to be paid to me for my labor and parts that were not covered by insurance). We had no evidence on the other punk, so he got off scot-free.

Congrats. It's good to see a happy ending out of B.S. situation. To many other robbery victims aren't that lucky.

w00P! More dirt!
Not a shred of evidence exists in favor of the idea that life is serious.
Interesting ending to this story. Perp #2 died in a one car accident in the City of Denver on leap day, Feb 29. I won’t be collecting any restitution from a dead guy, but I figure it’s worth it to get him out of the gene pool. Perp #1 got off scot-free but karma will take care of him too some day.

What that is nuts! Wait was the guy that died the guy that got the probation or the other guy?
Karma is a bitch. Be nice people!

Can't you still collect from his "estate" or whatever they call it when someone owes others money. I am sure he had something of value to sell or be auctioned off.

Perp 2 is the only one we caught and he accepted a probation plea deal with restitution. Perp 1 used to be my neighbor and now lives in Grand Jct. Neither of these guys has a job or any assets. If not for the help of a detective at Littleton PD, I would not have found out that perp 2 is dead. His PO sure wasn’t going to go to any trouble to track him down, and neither was Denver PD.

Ah, well, hopefully no one checks his brake lines and whoever cut them will get off scot free ... YOU'RE WELCOME LIL GUY
