Exactly. There was a GTB sitting U-locked to a parking meter in my town a while back for about two months until we noticed parts starting to disappear from it. By the time four months had rolled by, it was down to the frame, fork, headset and left crank arm (for whatever reason). I asked one of the cops I'm friendly with what was up with it and he said "If you can get that thing off the pole, its yours". My friend Ethan is still riding it.
