I guess I am just lucky. I have owned more than a dozen motorcycles during the 27 years I have ridden. I have never had a bike or any gear stolen.
When I returned to motorcycling 5 years ago I did put my helmet and gloves in my tank or tail bag when I stopped for breakfast or lunch. Out of sight, out of mind. Stealing them however would have been as easy as undoing the zipper.
When I am not riding my motorcycle is parked in the garage and locked. The tail bag has now been replaced with an inexpensive plastic helmet box bolted to my Honda rear rack.
