My FJ was stolen this morning

[aviationfred]

Well Fred, sorry for the loss but at least they didn't take your humor.

Every time I see a post from you in this thread I hold my breath and hope that's it's a recovery post.

I hate to ask this, but do you suspect that it's someone that you know?

I feel extremely confidant that the thief is NOT someone I know.

GOOD!  That way when you find him you can empty the clip with a clear conscience.

Good luck man.

Very frustrating to say the least. Will keep an eye open here in Ontario Canada.

Fred,
I also keep checking on here throughout the day hoping to see good news. I have to tell you, I used to have pretty vivid dreams about parking my car on a motorcycle thief after my Radian was stolen in Tulsa, OK. I'm no longer having dreams of homicide, but I still despise thieves.

Fred,
I'm just sick reading what happened to your bike. The FJ community is large and well spread-out I hope every one
is on the lookout for your bike or any of its parts. I cant imagine this happening with out some one on here finding
out or hearing of something. I've always enjoyed your insight and knowledge of the bike and I enjoyed your write up
on you gauge install as I followed it closely when installing mine own into my gauge cluster.
I sure hope this story has a happy ending coming very soon I just cant imagine an FJ goes missing and no one here
knows anything. Everyone that owns an FJ must have been on this group at some point and should recognize your
FJ and will help get it back home to you.

There has been no news on my stolen FJ. I did go to the police substation to get a copy of the police report. I have to go to city hall for that. On my way out I saw this......

Hi Fred

I am sorry to hear that your bike has still not been recovered  . I was just wondering though. In the event that it is not returned and you decide to upgrade you other FJ, would you do any of the mods differently or just copy what had been done to the FJ1300? Or do you have a new project in mind?

It is a cruel blow after all of the time effort and dollars put into the bike.

I know how you're feeling as I reported mine nicked Jan 2 years ago. Never got it back. Insurance covered a near identical replacement.

[aviationfred]

I have been in contact with the City of Derby, Kansas Police Department. (Derby is a small suburb of Wichita). I will be going to the Police station in about 1 1/2 hours to look at a recovered stolen motorcycle and to identify if it is mine.

Best wishes on the recovery. I hope it's in the same condition as when it left.

Did the PD offer any photos? Did they say what make/Model it is?

[Country Joe]

Fingers crossed for a good outcome.
