Ducati Stolen Last Night

[frans07]

My matte black Ducati 749 was stolen last night in the South End in Boston. I left it there over night on Columbus Street and this morning it was gone. If anyone comes across a bike w/ no title, no keys, or random parts, please lmk.

sorry to hear it man, my 2002 Honda Civic got stolen right out of our house in suburbia town 1/2 south of boston. We recovered it a few hours later. Turned out they stole the key out of our car a few days earlier so we changed the ignition key. They rolled car out of our driveway and expected the key to work and it didn't so they rolled it into a nearby parking lot.

wow that really sucks, I get nervous about that stuff and usually feel comfortable leaving mine on main streets overnight. jeepers

Yeah, that does suck. I know that gutwrenching feeling when you walk out and see your vehicle missing or damaged. I know you described it, but since not everyone is familiar with every bike, throw up some pics and the VIN to help people know what to look for.

I will try to post some pics up tonight. Kudos to them for getting away with it I guess. I don't think they will be able to ride it w/o putting some serious money to change the ecu.

I am sure they have NO interest in riding it. My guess is your bike is already broken down and parts are off to be sold somewhere. If they were able to take it with no notice then my guess is they are pros.

hope you had full coverage?

[frans07]

yes, it works out in the end b/c I had a huge maintenance service due and I wanted to get a new bike. i was just shocked that they decided to lift the bike on a main street. maybe i'll try lo jack on the next bike.

So it was a bad ECU that was causing it to run like crap? I knew it had to be electrical but with no diagnostic software, I couldnt get any further into it.
