Bike stolen. I would appreciate any extra eyes

[Jiro]

Hi all,

As the title indicates, my bike has just been stolen, in Christchurch :( I'm not sure what the policy is about these kinds of things here, but I'm desperate for some help. It was a brand new 2014 white Ninja 300, License plate # A8SNR. I was wondering if it was possible for anyone to keep an eye out for it. I've already lodged a police report. Unfortunately I haven't had the opportunity to insure it yet..

If anyone spots it, please give me a shout

[Stylo]

Not good, what area ?

Have noted your rego, will keep a lookout, sorry to hear the news man

[Tazz]

Before any of the kids start, there's no need for another insurance thread!

Will keep an eye out up here for you. Chances are slim but fingers crossed for you bro.

What time was it stolen and where from?

[Akzle]

probably a sign.... that you should never have bought a ninj300.

[R650R]

Anyone else catch that production racing class they have for them in Aus, was on telly other weekend.
Never seen racing so close

[Jiro]

It was stolen from Wigram, new subdivisions :( between 10am and 4pm, when everyone was out for work.

Yeah I'm not hopeful either, I know how these things go, but I'll try anything. Thanks for the help

[willytheekid]

will also keep an eye out :yes:

...errr

[Jiro]

Top right, plain white :)

Thanks for keeping an eye out :)

[cruza]

[Stylo]

Top right, plain white :)

Thanks for keeping an eye out :)

I'm in St Martins so don't expect to see it out my way, keep a check on TM anytime soon

I hate people who steal things

[Jiro]

Completely stock standard, I loved it just the way it was, was great for commuting for sure, easy on the gas too

[jim.cox]

Plate number and description noted - will keep an eye out

[Oakie]

I'll keep an eye out on my commute. Should stick out like dog's bollocks.
Stolen from Wigram huh? That's where Mrs Oakie's stolen bike (Kawasaki 250) finished up. Can't imagine it would be the same guys though. I'm sure they didn't enjoy receiving bum-sex in jail.

quite a coincidence those facts mate- often thieves are dummer than a dogs terd

[Jiro]

Thanks for keeping an eye out. Yeah stolen from Wigram. Really didn't expect it, to be honest. Seems like such a nice neighbourhood.

Mrs Oakie didn't expect it either. Parked at the local mall for 20 minutes. Van pulls up by the bike ... open the back door, two dudes pick the bike up, throw it in the van and drive away. Obviously just a target of opportunity and fortunately caught on camera. They were flogging Kawasaki 250s as the engines went into many models. Bit different with the 300 though. Good luck with it.

Thanks, I appreciate it. I have my suspicions but I don't have anything concrete so there's very little I can do about it. There was construction going on for weeks in the plot right next to the house, even had a construction worker knock on the door and ask if the bike was for sale a few weeks ago when I wasn't there. But that's really all I have

[MVnut]

Will keep a look out.....hope you get the thieving bastards, Wigram is one big building site at the moment, plenty of places to bury the bodies

Well there you go, that's a lead right there. My shed was broken into not long after scummy neighbour finally said hello and chit chatted enough to know my hours etc...
Just because someone has a job doesn't mean they aren't a theif or connected to those who are.
My bikes are never parked in the driveway anymore, always straight around to back of house out of sight. Anyone dodgy that knows me who I run into gets told its a mates bike, just looking after it for him etc...
Teach family and flatmates not to give out any personal info to people that knock at door.

Problem is, the only thing she remembers is he was a big maori/pacific islander typical construction worker kit, and drove a nondescript van. She didn't think anything of it so she didn't bother remembering any details outside of that. The whole suburb is one big construction site so there are construction workers all over the place driving nondescript vans :(

[The Pastor]

Will keep and eye out in auckland, you never know >_>

[5ive]

If you do see it, it probably won't be white anymore...

[Jiro]

*sigh* yeah i'm not too hopeful, but i'll take what I can get, thanks for the help :)

[Askor]

Will keep an eye out for you also. Thieving cunts

[Filterer]

Unfortunately I haven't had the opportunity to insure it yet..


Was this your first bike? If you had a previous bike insured most insurance companies offer between 14 - 30 days of automatic cover on a new vehicle..

Bloody hell - thats a nice collection - bastards

[Stylo]

Jiro, wouldn't hurt to put an ad on TM etc in the wanted section for a bike like yours and , rather than say you want to buy exactly your bike's description, broaden it a little but say you'd prefer a Kawasaki *** 300 or similar, use you own words, you won't catch a fish if you don't have your hook in the water. Might be interesting what turns up especially for a relatively rare bike like yours. Just a thought.

You have the chassis/engine numbers I hope ?

I do, bought it brand new from dealership so I have complete paperwork. That's not a bad idea, might actually do that, thanks for the tip!

[Mo NZ]

I don't know if you have but it is worth reporting it to the Feds. Along with your suspicions and that loose description etc. Bastard luck, sigh.

Fair's fair! They found Mrs Oakie's stolen bike (or what was left of it) and got the guys who did it thrown in jail. They didn't achieve recovery of the bike but they did achieve a bit of justice for her.
