Had my reverse trike stolen the other day! The one day i forgot to lock it up. I think it may have been an inside job. Pretty sure i found out who did it but don't have any papers for the trike. Should I call the police? I think I should but don't know if they will report it if I don't have a title or the vin.

Report it immediately and give the police all the details about any mods etc.
It should be easy to find. They are quite rare and really stand out with the two front wheels.
I have a R-trike also that is heavily customized. It would be difficult for anyone else to claim ownership. I have a bill of sale and certificate of origin for mine that both have the VIN and an insurance policy that has the VIN on it.
Always record the VIN of any vehicle you buy. It should also be on any bill of sale etc.
Always record the serial number of any firearm also.

Defiantly report it. Hopefully they will realize they have made a mistake taking something that stands out so muchm, and you will get it back

I would report it sooner then later. It gives the thief less time to disassemble it.

I agree. Think about it as if you were the thief. Would you feel better with a 2 day head start, or the cops immediately looking?

I don't think u guys understand that i live In anderson sc. It's like moped city! There are probably 5-10 scooters stolen every day here! They literally have moped chop shops! It's crazy! I've been getting a lot of information from the people around here so that when I do call the police and report my moped stolen that they will actually try to bust the ppl who stole them. Because of not then the sheriffs dept won't be bothered with looking for them. If they by chance see it going down the road then maybe they might pull them over. Other than that they aren't going outta their way to bust anyone that stole a moped.

Bill I don't know how it is where you guys live but around here the cops seem only to care about busting the hardened criminals. You know the ones that brazenly drive with expired tags or no seatbelt or dare I say it, 5 mph over!

No wonder I see so many spray painted black scooters on CL in Anderson SC.
It sucks to lose your ride I hope you get it back.

Why don't you have a friend go by your X's and see if he see's it?

That sucks. This might sound crazy, but I have a note book of all my scoots. Everything is documented I have pics of vin and engine #'s and their current condition. I just hope I don't ever have to use it.
