The best way to handle this is to carry some form of homeonwers/renters insurance and catalog your bike(s) Serial #. DO NOT, repeat, DO NOT store this info on a PC. Place it in a doc file and include it in a JumpDrive/RAM-stick that you store in a safety deposit box along with other pieces of 'your life' (i.e. Insurance policies, mortgage papers, etc...). This way your data is safe in the event you home is broken into or destroyed and your PCs are lost.

Just my $.0.5...

I'm thinking that between OBRA, WSBA, Cascade, and some of the other organizations it might create a deterent. If stolen numbers are listed with the various organizations and somebody registers with matching number it would help lead to property recovery.
