My A7 1970 and A7SS 1971 were stolen in San Francisco last night (11/26/2016). The A7 took 12 months to get running and may have the last set of rod/pins in the crank that one could find. I only had about 8 weeks of riding time on it. Frame number:

VIN A7 23901

The A7SS was next in the pipeline, wanted to get it running over the Holidays. Broken fork, worn kickstart shaft.

VIN A7 28441

May the thieves have 12 years of crank, piston, cliutch, and CDI problems.

Let's hope the thief just took if for a joy ride, and you're recover it.

I'll keep an eye out up here in the Sacramento and surrounding areas - Craigslist, etc.

Yeah how do you move those bikes? The A7SS needs a few weeks and couple $$$s to get to run. The H1 that was stolen was also mine :-). It was a local meth lab house that had taken it (weird that we even have that kind of thing in this city of rich white folks). But that house is gone, so I'm not sure who could have done it. They must be somewhere near, discarded, unloved :-(.

This is crazy I found the A7SS last night behind the tennis courts - the thieves must have brought it back as I searched the entire city last weekend. Now hopeful that the A7 might also reappear. There is no way they can get those bikes started w/o knowing the wiring of the ignition switch. What dumb fucks.
