What are signs someone is scoping out my motorcycle?

Motorcycle thieves rarely strike cold — desirable bikes usually get scouted first. Watch for these patterns:

• The same car or scooter cruising slowly past your parking spot more than once, especially at odd hours.
• A stranger photographing your bike or lingering near it without an obvious reason.
• Someone striking up conversation with unusually specific questions — where you live, whether you ride daily, where the bike stays at night.
• Small markers left on or near the bike — a sticker, chalk mark, or object placed on it — sometimes used to check how often it moves.
• Your cover lifted or disturbed when you didn't touch it, or fresh scratches on a lock from being tested.

If any of this happens: vary your routine, move the bike somewhere new, add a camera pointed at it, and report suspicious activity to police with descriptions or plate numbers. Never confront someone you suspect — theft crews are not worth a physical fight. And make sure a tracker is on the bike before, not after, they make their move.
