    Well it's been a week since I reported it. Stolen in Gastonia NC behind the Convention center. Bike was locked but not covered, under a light next to my building. I had friends spot it or a bike that looks like it in York SC ( very close to my town.

    Fingers crossed I get it back but it's probably in pieces getting sold.

    I'm pissed as I had everything set, parts and all for a CBRf3 wheel and front suspension swap...

    If you see it or possible parts let me know

    Did you post up on social media where it can be shared. I think there is a VFR Facebook page which may be a good place to post up this theft. Good luck with its recovery. Hopefully it will be in good shape still and hasn't been trashed. And hopefully the guy who stole it, got smeared buy a 26 wheeler fully loaded grain carrying Mack just a couple feet away getting off the bike. Police do not need to Mirandize him or get a confession.

    first thing most thieves do is spraypaint it black if they intend to ride it. :dom:

    See what happens when you go searching..... All west coast
    Yea it got painted. It was seen in a town in SC so those cops aren't to helpful. In general once it's stolen its gone. Gotta find a replacement.
