Windshield / Saddlebag Theft
« on: October 10, 2012, 09:17:42 PM »

Softail Convertible Windshields with speakers and Saddlebags are really quick and easy to steal.  I`m curious as to how many of you remove them when you get to your motel or other travel destination.....

Always book a hotel with parking for the prevention of theft of the whole bike not the windscsreen

I got $1000 or more in chrome they could make off with using basic tools that is more use fall in the black market than the fairing.

I take my bags off because I don't want to unload them at the hotel, I always get a room with parking in front if I can and I have a Dowco travel cover I put on it at night.
