Quote from Lieutenant Disher in Mr. Monk on Wheels
Captain Stottlemeyer: We got the forensics back on that bullet. It was a 22 caliber. Lieutenant Disher: Yeah, and get this. We picked up Kuramoto's cousin. He says it wasn't random. Kuramoto was after that particular bike. Natalie: You're kidding. Captain Stottlemeyer: Somebody paid him three grand to boost it. Adrian Monk: $3,000? Captain Stottlemeyer: Natalie, you got a good look at it. Was there anything unusual about that bike? Natalie: Uh, like what? Lieutenant Disher: Solid gold basket? Natalie: No, I don't think it had a solid gold basket.
