Start checking houses in the neighborhood for surveillance video systems.

Well, the pressure was put on the neighbours this afternoon, thanks to some advice from a few on here regarding it being an inside job. Definately did not look like a random act, and lo and behold, the bike was found 2 hours later. Was sitting in an old folks building parking lot, was painted powder black, and looked like it was ready to go out to a buyer, or maybe waiting for a new ownership. Still had the WI plates on it.

Just cannot believe we got so close that the thieves bailed on their plans. I figured it was in a thousand parts and long gone. AMAZING!!!! Never give up. Not only that, but the cops called us on it and therefore we saved the 10K. This was all legit and the money was never an issue.

Also, from what I gather, you're from Wisconsin and you are visiting someone in Brantford, so I assume you were staying at someone's house who's garage you had it locked up in?

How many nights did you have it parked there? How well do you know the person who's garage it was in? How well do you know their friends?

What I'm getting at is that this sounds like someone with inside knowledge is the one who thiefed your bike. I'd suggest some hard questioning of the people you were visiting here and/or their associates. Very unlikely this was a random theft- what did the police have to say?

Excellent advice, had already posted it on Kijiji, the pressure was out there and whoever it was KNEW IT!!!!

I'm from the area and will also keep an eye out. Best of luck to you.

So, THANK YOU, to everyone who was feeling my grief and for all the support, and as for the, so called, "sceptics", I really hope you never have your bike stolen, ask for help, just to get ridiculed.
