You obviously have not previously come to Northern Ireland, (on a motorcyle.)
If you had, you would know that motorcyles are sacred objects over here.
It is extremely rare for a motorcycle to be stolen over here.
Classified as sacrilige!
Over here in this most civilised part of the United Kingdom, most bike theft is reserved for scooters & small bikes (for joyriding purposes.)
A big bike with the steering locked will probably be left alone.
Would any of my fellow countrymen like to comment on the correctness or otherwise of the above?
