No raids or pillaging but I can also understand one's reluctance to put that info out on the web. But look at the membership on this board. It amazes me how many of our members willingly put a map down to nearly their street address on their profiles. Sure would be a breeze to figure out where a lot of these expensive motorcycle live. Don't need a VIN or license number.
That's precisely how a member from the Chicago area found me a week or two after I got my SERG back in the fall of 2007. On a whim, he left home to see if he could find my house and see the bike using only the pin that I'd stuck on the member map. While I was completely pleasantly surprised to see this particular individual cruising through my neighborhood as I returned home from work that day, it certainly got me thinking about what could happen if someone with the wrong intentions used that information to do the same thing. But having said that, and while I've moved my pin to a more generic location on the map, you could probably pull up to any gas station in town, ask where the guy with all the Harleys and Mopars lives, and by the 3rd station find someone . . . either the attendant, or someone gassing up . . . who could get ya within a block or two - so, there again, there is more than one way to "skin a cat." At that point, if someone shows up looking for free vehicles or to do some other harm, H&K or Kimber will have something to say about it, first.
