Motorcycle thefts on Dean Street

lloyd huber · August 2008

Two of my motorcycles have been stolen within 6 weeks. Both were parked right in front of my house between Bond and Nevins. Both thefts occurred between 1a and 7a. First motorcycle was a Suzuki DRZ 400sm (prone to theft by most statistics) and the second was a Ducati Hypermotard. My girlfriend's scooter has survived both of the assaults, minus a wheel which was chained to my Ducati.

The honorable wankers that have stolen the motorcycles clearly knew my schedule, the motorcycles, and how to steal them. By all appearances the job was very professional.

I have been in touch with the 84th on several occasions and it appears that the neighborhood has experienced a rise in car break-ins and thefts recently.

Hoping that my next post will be more positive,

Sorry to hear about that, those new Ducatis look pretty interesting.

They are interesting bikes. Bike was always covered so someone must have been looking. It is very unfortunate and the insurance company is not making the process easy. Suppose it is time to find a garage...

That is terrible.
I live on that block and last year I was working from home and witnessed my neighbors interaction with the police after her car had the tires stolen. A meter maid had walked by earlier and looked at the missing tire and then issued a ticket for not moving for alternate side parking. When the police arrived to make a report they told her that it was very unlikely that she could get the alternate side ticket reversed because after all she had failed to move her car.
I hope the police were more respectful in your situation...
