Stolen Bikes

08 Beta 125 stolen last week near Wakefield. Someone possibly saw it being loaded into a van so could end up anywhere ? Keep an eye out for it at dealers, trials & Flappit near Keighley. Standard trim but no stickers on rear white guard & carbon fibre sticky stuff on fork legs, silencer & airbox. If seen, phone Chris on 01924 277428.

Hi all Hoped I wouldn't have to make this post but here we go anyway.. My hardrock hydro was stolen from Gloucester road in Bristol on Saturday 1st November about 13:40 (From outside the sood chemist near zetland road). I went in the shop for 30 seconds and someone rode off on it. It was standard specialized hardrock grey. I am waiting on details from specialized of the serial number. The underside of the seat was slightly freyed from a crash It had two different valves on the front and back as I had to replace the innertube after a puncture. There were two slight 5mm scored on the adjuster for front and back brakes so I could line them up. Cheers Nick

My mate crashed, broke both his wrists the other day, the bike was left parked up while he walked about a mile to the nearest house to get help and by the time someone returned to collect his bike it had been stolen. The bike was left at grid reference 164209 on Ordnance Survey Landranger Map (Pink cover) No. 166 Luton & Herford. This lane runs from the top of the Water tower at Whitwell and goes towards Whiteway bottom, it was left at the junction where the lane splits and joins the fast blast across the field down to the lane that leads to Whiteway Bottom itself. Bike details: DR400 Mainly Yellow plastics with blue Werx Suzuki sticker kit and white side panels. …

As some of you may be aware through the great press coverage here in Northern Ireland some lowlifes broke into the garage at the Turkingtons home late Saturday night early hours of Sunday morning below are the details of the bikes stolen. as you can see some are fairly unique and should stand out hopefully by making as many people aware of the theft as possible it will make it extremely difficult for the theives to move the bikes on and maybe help in getting them back Early hours of Sunday morning we had 7 bikes stolen from our bike shed: 2008 125 Gas Gas (my bike) for those who have seen it will know its very disitinctive-black wheels, Gas Gas UK team sticker kit, ca…

How do I do an ID cheque on bikes in the UK

This might seem like a thick question, I'm looking to upgrade my trusty old Gas Gas and have seen some quite reasonable bikes for sale privately but dont want to spend all my hard earned cash on a bike and find it is stolen, so any ideas on how I can check apart from the obvious like - Check the engine numbers against any paper work the owner may have, ask question on how long they have had it or just walk away if they have no documentation of proof of sale. Would the importer of the model be able to tell me if it was stolen if I was to ring them with the Engine and frame number.

Hi all As of 12pm sunday, me and my brother lost our race and trials bikes. Four bikes in total were stolen and 2 cars (one brand new for my mums 60th birthday) very badly damaged. However due to what i can say is very good work by the local police authority we now have our bikes back, although now in a very different location. Seems the scum (i would use harsher language but I know minors read the forum) rang up about a motocross bike for sale advertised in papers and said they would come around. However rang back hour later saying they had broke down on M5. Sounded fishy so we moved both our cars in awkward positions to the garage so no bike could pass. At 12pm they …
