@1olbull Around here in NOVA, the little scooters are the biggest stolen two-wheelers, at least the news tells me so.
In Denver back in 2007, the flashier one was with their cars or bikes, seemed to be the cue for thievery. Number one car brand stolen was Toyota followed by Hondas. For joyrides it was Cadillac. My police buddy thinks that the reason Harleys were stolen so much is similar to why the Caddies were taken, because they have a known security system and kids have to prove themselves capable of taking them to get into a gang or to prove they can be productive in some sort of chop operation. He is the one who told me not to be flashy with my VMAX since that is what triggers some psychology to take. I went with a non-descript cover for that bike because of his recommendation.
