Stolen Bikes Recovered Four Times
Stolen bikes recovered four times
Police were able to recover a 2006 Honda CBR1000 and a 2007 Suzuki GSX-R600 each time by tracing the radio signals emitted by the installed LoJack for Motorcycles devices.
A New York City surgeon realized his Honda CBR1000 was stolen from a movie theater parking lot. Police in Yonkers, NY were able to recover the bike in complete condition, save for minor damage to the ignition lock.
The surgeons bike was stolen and recovered three other times in the past year.
Meanwhile, a Tucson Ariz. resident reported the theft of his GSX-R600 from his apartments parking lot. After he contacted the police, the silent LoJack transmitter hidden on his bike was activated.
A Tucson police helicopter was able to trace the signal to another apartment complex just 14 minutes after the theft was reported. Officers found the GSX-R600 hidden in a pile of bushes.
This was the fourth time this motorcycle was recovered in nine months.
