Hey kids, my sweet ass ped was stolen from Sellwood yesterday morning. If you see a moped, ask yourself, "Is that Erin's stolen moped?" And if the answer is yes, give the cops a call. People with bike locks on them are advised to lock the moped to something and call the police.
Here is the number for the police, and if you're really prepared, you can put it in your cell phone for easy response time.
Police : 1-503-823-3333
It really was my pride and joy, and I have been crying too much lately. I just finished breaking it in, it was finally going over 40 mph only 3 days before it got jacked. I spent over a month and $700 getting it just perfect. Please feel sorry for me and keep your eyes peeled.
I can offer a whopping $200 REWARD to the person that assists me in getting it back (no questions asked). The recovery rate for mopeds is quite a bit lower than it is for stolen cars, but with enough people aware I've got a chance.
It's the beautiful chocolatey-black moped in this picture:
Notice the gold mags, the detachable bubble gas tank, round headlight, mid-length seat. There are no baskets on it anymore, and it's always likely the thief may rattle-can it to try to disguise it. There is no license plate. It is reasonably loud with it's hot new exhaust pipe, and as I said it will go over 40mph without breaking a sweat.
There is a similar red moped in the SE area, so if you see a red one don't get all freaky on him. His name is June and he's super.
Any tips on anything else I should do? I called tow companies and filed a report. It's titled in my name.

The idea of keeping an eye on Ebay isn't a bad idea. I've heard the some states have alert networks for pawnbrokers. Checking the online newpaper classifieds and Craigslist can't hurt either.

No fucking way! People suck.
