Often, once stolen, these vehicles are then disassembled to be easily resold online in the form of used spare parts.
Another not uncommon scenario is that the stolen motorbike is then used to commit other crimes such as robberies and muggings or even used as a means of exchange to extort money from the owner as a ransom with figures that can reach 50% of the value of the vehicle.

Typically such vehicles are then resold as used in local markets.
This phenomenon has intense repercussions on the Honda XADV, which is particularly appreciated in Morocco and Tunisia.
