The National Insurance Crime Bureau reports, that in 2012, there was a small drop in motorcycle thefts….only 46,000 bikes were stolen.

California, Florida and Texas led in thefts per state but New York City, Las Vegas and San Diego were the worst overall. Honda was the most stolen bike followed by Suzuki. So if you ride a Honda in New York City….lock it up! 😉

Another item of good news is that if your Honda in NYC is stolen the chance for recovery has increased. In 2011 only 37% of stolen motorcycles were recovered, in 2012 that increased to 39%! See the full article here

If you own a BMW F800S or F800ST built 2007-2009 you should know that National Highway Transportation Administration has issued a recall.

The recall is due to “incorrect tolerances, the rear wheel drive bearing and rear axle may wear”. The bearing and axle ware, due to the bad tolerances, could increase the risk of a crash. If you have one of these motorcycles you can contact BMW at 1-800-525-7417 or email BMW at CustomerRelations@bmwusa.com.

Looks a little spartan by US standards but for a lot of us this is better than any “bachelor’s pad” I ever saw. If someone has seen an English translation of the text please post a link.
