Ah bugger it mate - sending VERY bad vibes to the theives through my computer screen as I type. May they tremble in fear . . .
Especially as it won't be kids going off the rails a bit and joyriding, but bikers stealing to order as a profession.
Low life f*ckers.

I know sitting bull has a new pair of gloves just like those, ill ask him.
Nah, joking aside - does your apartment car park have security cameras, obviously you have reported it to the police??
Steve Hong
2nd August 2007, 11:24
Yes I did claimed about this to the police.. but I think Kiwi-biker members are more helpful than police... as you guys ride all over NZ..
From Security camera, I got some footages and police said they will come for that... Thanks for your interest.. I really appreciate it..

2nd August 2007, 11:28
In the video footage how many people were there, descriptions etc and can you see a vehicle, ute, trailer etc they may have used??
If you have a copy then maybe you should post it up here so we can have a look, maybe someone might recognise the scum?

Sorry for you Steve.
Bloody crims:angry:.
Will keep a look out down Hamilton way. Be as proactive as you can. Phone all Harley dealers in the upper nth island with frame/engine numbers. Flyers and any other ideas may lead to a result.

빨리 바이크 찾으시길 진심으로 바라구요
I really you hope you get your bike back soon.
이 일로 인해 뉴질랜드에 관한 나쁜 인상을 받으셨을까봐 걱정도 됩니다.
I'm worried you had a bad impression of New Zealand.
꼭 찾으시길 바랍니다.
You must get it back!

Hi Steve,
As said earlier I hope you don't lose heart or believe these thieving bastards are typical of kiwi's in general, and kiwi bikers specifically.
I've put out the word to my biker contacts (most ride Harleys too) and will keep a sharp eye out.
Good luck!

Hi Steve, I will be looking out for that bike everywhere I go! I'm a newbie to bikes and quite often I can't recognise different ones (ummm... it was black... and it had two wheels...:o) but this one is very distinctive! I will be looking everywhere I go! :shifty:

Hi
Contact the taxi companies. Those drivers are everywhere, there are more of them than police and they're in a good position to notice the bike. Make sure you give them enough details to identify your bike accurately and an incentive (say $1000) to watch out and report back for you.
Good luck.

Is everyone sure? I actually thought it was posted "tongue-in-cheek", a p/t meant in jest. I could be wrong, of course as I don't know him.
I do agree with the general sentiments expressed, though, the scumbags should be summarily dealt with. Having been the victim of theft, as I suppose many here have, one feels violated and even "lesser" thefts can unsettle you.
I hope the footage helps, Steve. All the best.

Yeah thats what I was thinking, If I wasn't in Vancouver and I still don't have a phone I'd give him a call and tell him he might want to check it out. The tires look different and the exhaust looks like its been chopped around where his one was starting to blue. I could be wrong but how many Road Kings with the same paint and ape hangers could there be. Could some one local give him a call and give him the heads up.
Maybe a fellow kiwibiker harley Expert could check the pics to see if we are on the right track etc
If I'm wrong sorry to the seller :)

got any contacts in the back patch scene?
large wedge of cash no questions asked and bikes mysteriously reappear
chances are bike is either
a) broken into parts and numbered parts destroyed
b) in a container being shipped elsewhere in the world
look on trade me and flea bay for parts that are off your bike

Lets see.
: Both these bikes look to have the same paint scheme.
: It would take any handiman little time to convert the stolen Road King into the TM bike.
: Several key after-market components (pipes, bars, chrome) are identical.
: It has been deliberately photographed covered in dust.
: The bike is surrounded by unidentifieable dead bikes and rubbish.
: All means of identification has been either blurred, covered or removed. (not uncommon in TM bike vehicle sales).
: The bike on TM is an 04' done 7,000km.
: The buynow price is $17.1k, about 2/3rds current market value. (The street price for an 04' Road King (done under 10k) is around $25,000).
Hmmmmmmmmmm
If it looks like chicken, and smells like chicken.............. :no:

Be careful mate , one roadking looks much the same as another, the paint scheme isn't a one off by any means & the aftermarket parts being similar doesn't mean much either. The owner will know his bike more by the scratches he has put in it & little things like that. The TM trader probably is genuine & should be given the benefit of the doubt until proved otherwise.

.
yes it is black and its a harley road king and thats about where the similarities end
completely different bike, different accessories, different paint
no plonker is going to steal a bike and stick it on trade me as a complete bike
you would be better looking for late model parts being traded
