The owners of a Kawasaki Ninja EX650 motorcycle contacted the Colorado Springs Police Department to report that their motorcycle had been stolen from their apartment house parking lot.  A police officer verified the theft and had the vehicle information entered into the state and federal crime computers.  This routine action automatically activated the LoJack® System concealed in the Kawasaki.

Six-minutes after the entry and activation officers with the Colorado Springs PD picked up the silent LoJack signal from the stolen motorcycle with the LoJack Police Tracking Computers (PTCs) that are installed in patrol vehicles and aircraft.  Following the directional and audible cues from the PTC, the officer tracked the Kawasaki to the 3900 block of Tennyson Avenue where the motorcycle was found abandoned by the thief.

The owners were called and the motorcycle returned to them.

The LoJack® System was installed in the Kawasaki Ninja EX650 at the request of a prior owner in 2007 at Rocky Mountain Cycle Plaza in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
