just got a call from a recovery company - bike has been found. No idea what nick it is in yet. My wife is heading over there today to check it out for me. If it is anything like my last bike theft, it will be stripped to the bone and be nowt but a frame.

Fingers crossed its either a total right off or still in very decent nick - anything in between is a bit of a pain in the arse to be honest.

good luck - maybe a sympathetic call to motorworks for a few bits eh?

Any update on the bike??

Collected it at the weekend. Cosmetically it looks fine, which is excellent news. Ignition is ripped to shreds of course and the clutch lever is just flapping about - no resistance at all.

I have not had a really good look over it yet as I was away all weekend. Motorrad in Bristol are collecting it today to check it over and quote for the repairs.

Fingers crossed, it will all be running smoothly again very soon!

I keep my fingers crossed that you get it back and running ok,...
i wish there would be an anti theft system were thieves would get electricuted or their hands fall off...when nicking someones pride and joy...

There is a new system I believe..... it is a biometric one..... You take an imprint of your balls..... If not recognised, they get snipped... there is a twist however.... literally. If not recognised, the get nipped, which invariably causes said owner to speed up..... at a predetermined (programmable) speed, they get a full 360.

The system is called BALLS.... Ball Association Lift and Liberate System

I think we should have a competition for the mark II version of this... any takers???
