Hi Victor. Sorry to see that. I actually saw your posters on the Brecknock Rd today. My girlfriend took a photo and I was going to post it up but you've got there before me. Hope you get it back.
R1200GS TC. Triple Black
R1200S. It’s gone. Had it 11yrs. My favourite bike in 42yrs riding.
Sorry to hear that, I used to live on Holloway Road so must have seen you at some point. I still work in east London so will be on the look out. Keep an eye on eBay for any recognisable parts being listed, especially exhaust and fairings.

Was I driving it as I'd stolen it? Then it was me for sure
Sadly from the motor cycle dealer I'm friendly with, these bikes stolen are in eastern europe within a few days ....
Porous borders .....
A friend was having her bike freighted across europe to Spain , and she forgot the papers when she delivered it, the freight driver said no problem , he'd hide it ....
Sure enough the bike arrived , no hassle ....
And that bike crossed 4 borders .
So , until our border control officials wake up , there will be no end of bikes being stolen .
I struggle to understand why someone would go through that hassle for a bike that in the UK is worth perhaps 2000, 3000 on a good day...
The profit having transported it, taking the risks etc would be close to nothing.
If it would have been stolen to make a quick profit I don't think there's one to be made, and the better bet being to sell of its parts as spares in the UK.
If it had been a GS or S1000RR I would have understood though...
I'm sure it's on an estate somewhere, or being joy ridden around...
R165RRD its one of the early Press Bikes customer bikes were all S reg
There would appear to be a surfeit of prolixity and sesquipedalian content today please do not use a big word when a singularly un-loquacious and diminutive linguistic expression will satisfactorily accomplish the contemporary necessity
