    I used to ride dirt bikes down in Texas a lot. I left it in the bed of my truck all the time and never had any problems elsewhere in Texas. (Ft. Hood, Killeen, Austin.) the first time I brought it to Houston I had a bike lock around the frame hooking it to the stake pocket in my truck. Dang thieves stole my kickstarter. Didn’t stop me from riding the next day but sure pissed me off.

    Damn sorry to hear that dawg. Thats what scares me the most is gettin my sh*t stolen. I was told welding rigs were a hot commodity in Houston. Theyll sit back and camp on ur rig n wait for the right time. Scandalous mf. Keep ur head up bro and do what u do, stay on that grind!👌🏼

    I think it’s a safe bet to assume that looking for a stolen welding ring in Houston, Texas is about as hard to find a gay dude in short shorts in San Francisco…
    I know that doesn’t help you look for it, but I hope it made you smile 😜
    Best of luck finding her brother.

    I hope you get it back or your insurance covers it. That is a lot of money to lose and on top of that you cannot make a living. I was a pipeline welder in the 70's I work in Colorado, Wyoming and Kansas.

    You need to report your weld machine as stolen to the welding shops. Give them the serial numbers. They have a major data base. Where their supposed to keep it on file and it let's any welding dealers or repair shops that it is stolen! Once they have your machine, they can not give it back to the current people. Cuz its stolen.
