So I peruse Craigslist for a few minutes almost every morning while drinking coffee and waking up. Yesterday, I see MY FZ1 that was stolen a year and a half ago (July 2013) on there for $1000 for-parts, no title, not running. The bike looks complete down to the cigarette lighter that I installed in the inner fairing. I immediately call the detective that worked my case and before the day was over the cops had the bike recovered. The guy selling it apparently had paperwork showing that he had legitimately bought it from an auction house, but we'll see! Auction paperwork can be forged, but there are also some shady auction houses out there too.
Since my insurance paid me, it is no longer my bike but I will eventually have the option to buy it back. It looks like the thieves only put about 1000-1500 miles on it so I just may try to buy it back if the price is right.
