You gotta be kidding! Stolen? That sucks. Maybe they'll put it back when they see the smoke. Sorry to hear that.

for anyone who might be keeping their eyes open:
it was a brown and creme custom paint job - tank mostly creme, most everything else walnut brown
Taken off the street on the northwest part of chicago.
distinctive marks include:
-acewell digital tachometer
-integrated LED taillight/turnsignal
-side stand had a weld repair in the frame where the tube was torn. VERY distinctive
if anyone sees anything for sale matching or a flood of spectre parts, let me know. I'd be most appreciative!!

I'm hoping since mine is such a distinctive brown and creme that I've never seen elsewhere that it will be sold somewhere as-is. I would know it on the street in a second -- sticks out like a sore thumb.

I know it would not be any fun if it was easy, but does it have to be this much fun?

I can keep a lookout around Michigan, I ride all around the lower part of the state. What was the VIN and was there anything "mechanically" distinctive? WG Coil mod? Some kind of one off or rare part a KZRider guy could pick out easy?

Have you posted it on Craigslist? That could get some more eyes on the lookout. I've seen that practice around here before.

Anyone looking for a motorcycle, stolen or legit, check out crazedlist.org
It lets you search all craigslists in a geographical region (like midwest) at once. Pretty sweet.
No searches showed anything like my bike, but though I'd share the neat find for anyone will to travel a bit for a good bike or part.
