HELP!! How to steal my own fazer? - markaboot - 26-03-12
I have an '03 600, parked next to a field where i was playing football with some mates last night.
The key must have fallen out of my pocket at some point, lost the light as we played till sun set. Tried with a torch but no luck.
I dont want to break the steering lock with force or drill/screw driver the locks if i can help it.
I need to move it, i dont think its safe where it is. I'm thinking of pushing it as far as i can, then turning it on the centre stand and pushing it as far as i can again. At least till i can chain it to something solid and its under a street light somewhere.
Does anyone think i could drag it backwards with the front locked up? or even lift the front end and roll it on the rear? With help obviously.
Going back up tonight to have a proper look, going to systematically grid search rather than random walking round.
Currently tearing the house apart for the spare!
Note to mods: This obviously cant stay on here, too useful to thieves! i will "report to moderator" when i have the bike back and it can be deleted.

Are your insurance not able to help? most seem to come with roadside assistance these days.
Or a local auto locksmith might be able to help.
Failing that a mate with a van to get it home?

lift the front up onto a sackbarrow, or if the ground is level and not gravelly, pop onto a paddock stand and pull along that way - but as others have said, locksmith.
have sent you a pm with another way on that dont want to put on an open forum

thanks for the replys everyone,
the police knocked on my door just after 5, just to make sure i knew where it was and to let me know it was ok. a local resident had rung up because it was in a random place next to the pitch, looked like it had been pinched.
lucky after an hour of searching my girlfriend found the key, she is my new favorite person!
mods delete/close if you likey, job done
thanks all
