u say it's old but it still looks like a sweet ride- hope she can recover it.

HIBuLliTt, remember stockades? how about public stonings?
Fingers are good too. What was that movie- Casino maybe, where the good fellas use a circular saw.?? Or did I just dream it?

Casino was the head in the vice...

I say chain gang and we can throw garbage at them (or on the road) to pick up while they're at it.

I think it was Darkman......he used a cigar cutter to gently remove those pesky appendages.

we could boil them in oil, or burn them at the stake, or draw and quarter, yeah that's a good one. Like in Braveheart, but the guy who stole your bike would deserve what he got. :dead:

The older frame comment was more directed at the fact its not exactly a spankin new bling bling frame that I would think would appeal to theives.

Thanks for the luck in finding it. I will pass it on. I have my fingers crossed.
