jbailey86 Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 Hi, i'm new to the forum. I have/had a 2004 Honda CBR 600 RR. It was stolen from my house in columbus ohio. I live off of Bethel rd. I was turned onto this site by some people from 600rr.net. Seems like a site I would like to frequent assuming I get my bike back so I could ride. Anyways I know this is a long shot, but I was wondering if anyone heres anything or knows someone selling a bike that resembles mine if they would let me know. Some specifics about my bike are: Its candy blue 04 CBR 600 RR. Has a jardine exhaust. Some light scratch marks on the drivers side faring from falling over. The rear tail lights were broken so It has some clear caulking around them to hold them on. The license plate is 51MRU. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here are some pics of what it looks like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbailey86 Posted December 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 If i'm not allowed posting like this I'm sorry. I'm just upset that someone stole my bike. My grandfather bought it for me and he passed away a month ago. Lots of sentimental feelings on this.Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gixxie750 Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 Does it matter? Sorry for your loss. Hope it all works out for you.yep! Cause you can remove bodywork and change tanks,but the remains of a steering stem lock being pried off never leaves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbailey86 Posted December 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 I don't know if the steering stem was locked. I'm new to bikes, this was my first one. I have the key so I'm assuming it was locked. I've been checking ebay and craiglslist everyday and posting on everything I could think of. The vin # is JH29C370X4M102022I appreciate all the support and help. Hopefully it gets returned in atleast halfway decent shape and I can meet some of you guys on the road.

jbailey86 Posted December 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 No insurance. My wife dropped it thinking I didn't need it again to the spring. I'm mad about that also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbailey86 Posted December 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 Do motorcycles come with an anti theft device already on them from the factory? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motociclista Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 Very few have factory anti-theft devices other than the steering lock, and your CBR is not one of those few exceptions.The steering lock mentioned above is when you turn the handlebars all the way to the left, then turn the ignition key counter-clockwise from the "off" position, which locks the bars in place. Not a big deterrent, but better than nothing. If someone sees a bike with a broken steering lock, that's a good sign it's been stolen. That's why the other poster asked.
