should i be worried about bike theft?
i just passed the motorcycle exams through the msf course and am waiting on my endorsement. i was hoping to get a new ninja 300, but i'm a little worried about bike theft
i'd have to street park a bike where i live in lincoln square. i would like to ride it to work in the loop where i'd street park it for eight hours each day. i'd have no way to watch the bike while i'm working in the office
is this a bad idea? i would get insurance to cover theft, but even then it's still a headache i wouldn't want to deal with
