SV650.org - SV650 & Gladius 650 Forum



Idle Banter For non SV and non bike related chat (and the odd bit of humour - but if any post isn't suitable it'll get deleted real quick).
There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too.

Technology eh!

Its like a little catalogue for bike thieves.

A: They can read Sigs and post to find a Bike the right colour with the exact spec of mods etc.
B: Find out where it is on that nice little map.

Super! Hope they come looking for mine.

This kinda happened on the RX-8 forum people listed what they had done with pics showing license plates. Was only a matter of time till they stared to disappear.

I think that's just sensationalism.

Err, i think many people have not actualy put their road on the map, often putting a mainroad etc...

Its an SV forum, its safe to asume that most of us have SVs, possably one of the most unpopular bikes to steal.

Well i've just added myself to the map thingy.

And if any theif out there really thinks my bike is parked in the middle of Apex Corner roundbaout then they are welcome to play with the traffic while they try and find it.

Like TSM said, you'd have to be a very sad or very thick ******* if you went out looking to steal a bike with such a low resale value wouldnt you?

Not everyone on here has a SV or a cheap bike for that matter.

I think people should be made aware of this, that's all. I'm not saying don't use it, just don't put your exact details in.

Other than that I like it. Its interesting to see who's around you.

My first big bike was a cx500 about 10 years ago and that got nicked within 10 days of me owning it. Never found, so presume it was someone who wanted THAT particular bike
