STOLEN BIKE ALERT!!!
Another SMDR victim
Steve Stalter had his CRF 50 and his 2006 CRF 250 stolen along with miscellaneous tools.
The culprit(s) cut the lock on his enclosed trailer and removed the bikes and tools and fled undetected.
Based on evidence at the scene it appears they may have backed a trailer into his driveway to commit the thefts.
The CRF 50 is a pit style bike (No further info at this time)
The CRF 250 is a 2006 with a 2007 carburetor & ignition box. The gas petcock is normally facing the gas tank and this one has been altered so the petcock faces out. If the culprit(s) are dumb enough to leave all or some of the graphics on they are marked with Tyler Willis and Giles Racing. It has a red rear Renthal sprocket as well.
In addition to locking your bike in a garage or enclosed trailer please invest in a good cable lock and don’t cut corners on the lock you use with the cable. Some folks often laugh at me for locking my bike up in my locked garage; however, dirt bags are creatures of opportunity and want things to move fast.
If you going to load your bikes in an enclosed trailer the night before riding back the trailer close to a building so the back door or drop gate cant open. It’s a bit harder to get the bikes out the side door.
In addition to utilizing basic security measures remember to watch out for your neighbors.
