Yes the headline is correct ..my buddy was stolen from in front of my house on saturday night ... I always park it in my backyard but one night I decide to be lazy its gone. Filed police report...the handlebars were locked so they must of lifted it onto a truck..
Anyone got a great deal on a scooter in LA ???

That is one of my worst nightmares. When my bike got stolen from off my front stoop, I went berserk. Try posting notices on your local Craigslist and on MySpace and other scooter BBS. Call any and all motorcycle & scooter shops in the area to let them know to keep an eye out for it. With a lot of patience and vigilance, I actually got my bike back.
Good luck finding your scooter! Keep us posted. *crosses fingers for you*
Man, that sucks extra hard. Did you have insurance? I'm assuming that insurance on a scoot works like that on any other automobile. Does anyone have input on the insurance agencies out there (value, customer service, etc) ?
Thanks all of you ..To answer your questions ...yes I did have Insurance but not theft...Don't go cheap next time!
I have posted my scoot on just about everyplace I could and went to all scooter shops in 30 mile radius!! ....No word so far !
I am dying here.. it is a beautiful sunny day ....and no scooter to go out and play..
I need a new scoot !!!
Where in the SFV do you live? I'm in NoHo; we usually park in the garage but occasionally get a bit lazy and leave them under a covered patio space overnight. Guess we ought to stop doing that.
You may want to ask Mike at NoHo if you can post a "stolen" flyer with pics in his shop. There will be a lot of people there next weekend for the Scootin' Fool rally.

OK yeah hooray I got a new scoot!!! Today I got to pick up my Blur !!! Man what a ride that thing is soooooo stable next to the buddy!!! I had the chance to ride the 125 buddy and Blur and man what a difference shocks make!!!
I am on the road again!!!
Yes, that is my scooter.
Yes, I wear a helmet and a FIRSTGEAR armored jacket.
No, I'm not embarrassed to be seen riding it.
Yes, that is an NRA sticker on the fender.
Man are you telling me I definitely will be looking in my backyard every five minutes to make sure it is OK!!
Yes I did make the trip to SD and man Motor Sport Scooters is the bomb! Really treat people good and I can be kinda of a picky cheapskate sometimes but felt really good leaving there. They have a lot of great accessories also for the Buddy available online and I ordered my trunk from them for my Buddy before it was stolen and they had it to me the next day!
