Bike stolen (North Shore, 25 March 2008)

[Disco Dan]

1993 Kawasaki ZX11

Stolen between 1am - 4am from Halberg Street, Glenfield North Shore

REG: 85UGG



Please either contact me on 021 2950 352 or call the police with ANY information.

Third picture is most recent taken last week, shows the new damage down right hand side and indicator damage. Still has GPS mount on headstock. Speedo etc is all in miles not kms.

Another distinguishing feature - the number plate is on a metal door hinge with one black bolt in the centre which causes it to tilt to one side. The black plastic rear mud guard (see pic one) has been removed as part of that.

[Disco Dan]

[gijoe1313]

No, I live in dodgy Beach Haven. Bike was stolen from HALBERG STREET

[ritchtheitch]

I did feel sad about the guy that wrote himself off into a brick wall in Glenfield.. then saw the bike was stolen..

[zeocen]

Oh dude that is not right.
I will definitely keep a look out, my eyes are perminantly attracted to ZZR's so if I spot one I'll definitely give it a good look over. The feeling of having a ZZR1100 taken away one way or another is NOT good!

Those fucking cockhammers. :(

[Disco Dan]

well i hope the idiot/s ride into a solid steel wall at high speed... serve em right.

[Bikernereid]

Please don't take the law into your own hands hun. Would hate to see you get into trouble cos of some bloody tea leaf. They are not worth the shit that would rain down on your head for doing what you are thinking of doing!!


IM in shock... if I catch the dirty f*ckers that did this............

[Kittyhawk]

Its people like this who should have their intestines ripped out, strangled then shoved down the wastemaster.

I'll keep my eyes open out this side of town...Being on a main road I always watch bikes go past.

Bugger - let me know if you need rides, grocery shopping done etc..willing to help ya in any way poss.

Cheers kitty, appreciate it.

I walk to work so that makes things a bit easier, everything else... well... I just keep hearing bikes ride past... :crybaby::crybaby::crybaby:

[Trudes]

Geeze that's crappy, a bit of it going around by the sounds. Have you done a drive-by past the KillerBee headquarters?

[Bikernereid]

You really are such a sweety. Not having transport is such a bitch and shopping is just insane without wheels.

Wonder if bereavement leave covers motorbikes? :crybaby::crybaby::crybaby:

[martybabe]

Sorry to hear that DD, I hope your reunited before to long.

and a pox on the mthr fking bike theivin scumbags. :2guns:

[Bikernereid]

Don't let the fookers try and scam you on how much your bike is worth. They are tights as a ...cunt and will screw you any chance they get. I had to haggle and threaten them to get a fair payout for my car.

[Kittyhawk]

Cheers kitty, appreciate it.

I walk to work so that makes things a bit easier, everything else... well... I just keep hearing bikes ride past... :crybaby::crybaby::crybaby:

Yeah but how far are ya from the booze shop lol...and all those bootie calls dear :yes:


You really are such a sweety. Not having transport is such a bitch and shopping is just insane without wheels.

Been there when my car got stolen...so yes know what its like. Besides Im still off work so need something to do :innocent:

[WierNixie]

Will keep eyes pealed - the rego is easy to remember and I see loads of bike on my travels very day.

[yungatart]

That sux!
I hate dishonety.
Here's to a satisfactory resoluition for you.

[Kittyhawk]

I suggest keep an eye out on trade me over the next few months, as ZZR parts may possibly come up for sale. Especially fairings, and anything which is always in need on the bike market. Go check it out...then see if its yours if you have noticable marks etc.

[Meekey_Mouse]

That sucks Dan :( I'll be up in Auckland Wednesday, Thursday and Friday... Will keep an eye out for it

[fizbin]

wankers will keep an eye out for you i cover a bit of road to and from work if i see it will let you know.

[avgas]

That seriously sucks.
PM me your cell - as im most likely to see this thing on the road. And following will be pointless if i dont have anyone to contact.
And while i could run it off the road - this does nothing to help the bike.
Also a note to everyone out there - will most probably be black by now, so dont look for bikes a particular colour. My bike went through 3 stages of matt black/ gloss black/silver before the cops got it again.
However they usually dont sand so the paint job will flake off in parts.

[Morcs]

No, I live in dodgy Beach Haven. Bike was stolen from HALBERG STREET

Sadly thats why I havent left west harbour yet. Not many places in auckland that I deem my bike to be safe.

Will keep an eye out. Gimme a buzz if you find out where/who it is.

Lets torch the bastards house. Bet it was them fucking coconuts.

[FROSTY]

[Disco Dan]

Eyes open this end --text me JUST the rego number again -

Done, thanks Frosty

[Disco Dan]

As Avgas said - it most likely is not red anymore, so keep an eye out for the unique stuff on first post.

I also just added youtube video showing the tail mods.

[daaatomic]

111 and the police would be an option, yes?

[EJK]

Omg wtf not that bike!

[Disco Dan]

Omg wtf not that bike!

Its god dam f-ing legendary...

[NOMIS]

will keep alook out for it around henderson ways. hope your insured. have u fixed it since your bin?

[Swoop]

Bummer.
Will keep an eye out.

If everyone can put a bit of stickytape on their tacho, with the rego on it as a reminder???



It is interesting to note the differences in this thread compared to the "biker theif dies" thread...

[avgas]

Nah was hoping to get someone local. I guess i could try *555 and say he was speeding with no wof or reg. At least then they could setup a speed trap. But i have had a friend who had his bike stolen and parked just around the corner from the central station. 4 weeks the local plod walked past the bike, with the petrol cap ripped wide open.
It was the armed offenders that actually called in the plates - as they were raiding a local apartment.

[Aa7]

No, I live in dodgy Beach Haven. Bike was stolen from HALBERG STREET

Thats why i live there too (Beachhaven). It seems that scumbags dont shit in their own nests so its safer to stay in their hood than in the surrounding areas which are like convenience stores for thieves it seems and just a short stroll down the road.

i will keep my eyes open as i go to and from work. even though whoever did this is the scum of the earth, really they dont deserve to be another whole in the wall like the one already at the top of the hill. hopefully your bike is found way before anything else like that happens and its not damaged at all. my thoughts are with you Dan.

[Mully]

Bugger Dan.

Will keep my eyes peeled.

[LilSel]

Dude that really sucks!!! Will keep my eyes out too

if you are in a car and you see Dans bike then *555 will work as long as you say you are following the stolen bike and you are going to hurt that sucker real bad when he stops and actually sound offensive to the *555 operator. If they are thinking that public safety is in danger they will send out all available police officers ASAP and probably a rolling road block to catch the jerk but if you just say something like 'hey this guy on an internet forum has had his bike stolen and i am watching it ride past me' they will do almost nothing. the jerk who stole the bike needs a good beating no questions asked however the police are busy people and traffic offenses are i imagine low on their priority list. however if the cops think that justice is going to be served by someone other than themselves they will try and stop the guy quicker than you can say 'some assholes riding a stolen bike past me'

[Conquiztador]

Hope she is found quickly.

[Jase H]

I can only sympathise - currently in the same shitty situation myself and public transport in Auckland sucks.

Hope for your sake your insurance company is quicker than mine. My bike was taken 6 1/2 weeks ago and I'm still waiting for them to pay out.

Will keep an eye out none the less - good luck in finding it.

[Gubb]

Good luck mate, will keep an eye out for it, hopefully it doesn't end up in Glenfield.

Cheers bud,

Who are you with?

[Morcs]

You have insurance? :Pokey:

thought you needed the correct license for insurance.

Bloody good on yer if you have though.

[riffer]

Not good news Dan. Will keep eyes peeled down here too.

[Deviant Esq]

Oh no :(

Condolances Dan, I hope it turns up again soon in unharmed condition.

[WickedOne]

I'll keep an eye out as well mate!!!

[PrincessBandit]

Although zeocen (and, I'm sure, gijoe1313) will keep their eyes open down our way, I will too. Hope all turns out well for you. The thought of having my girl stolen stops me from taking her heaps more places than i would otherwise. The fact that two-legged humanoid dog shit personages who steal bikes (or damage them just for their amusement) basically force me to use my car on occasions when I'd much rather take my bike really annoys me. Insurance or no, it still sucks. Keep us all informed!

[HungusMaximist]

Disco, let us know if the Uni boys/girls can help you out.

I'll keep an look out for it but I pretty surprised that your bike got taxed on the North Shore.

We've got a txt-to-bash system implemented since some idiot last year started nicking our bikes outta on Symonds St in day light.

[Japtwin]

asswipes! will keep eyes peeled cityside, quite distinctive so hears hoping.

[Madness]

I'm relocating to Auckland in a few weeks, and bringing my red ZX-11. I hope I don't get the bash, or dobbed into the plod once I get there, they'll do me for summin no doubt.

Starting to think the bike needs to be parked in the living room once I get there, it's only worth $5k.

Bad news Dan, time for a ZX12?!?

[Disco Dan]

Bloody good on yer if you have though.

Of course :yes:

Never had any bad stuff happen like getting things nicked in 10 years living out west... I move to the shore... :angry: dropkicks.

Oh I have great plans for next bike, but lots of work to do first!

I am hoping it is returned safe and well though. Save a lot of hassle.

[Badger8]

:shit: sorry to hear bout this mate.
I know the bike, will def be on the lookout for her.

Here's hoping you get her back in good nick, or at least get a nice big shiny payout! :niceone:

[Disco Dan]

Gah... just realised if I dont get it back I have no way of charging OR mounting my GPS... :blink: alright... now im really angry.... :angry:

[GSX-RJIM]

Mate I'll get all the lads on Section 3 North Shore Police Centre to keep a very close eye out for your bike and if I find the maggot I'll make sure he knows he has sinned big time, ie: I will make sure he goes to court and does not get a half arsed slap on the hand only.

[barty5]

Gah... just realised if I dont get it back I have no way of charging OR mounting my GPS... :blink: alright... now im really angry.... :angry:

if you phhone Navman here they can supply replacment mountings etc etc my fathers car got nicked last year same deal wasnt to bad either bout $50-60 bucks from memory ican get the number from my supplier if you can fid it

[MaxB]

Mate that sucks. Will keep an eye out etc. There are not that many ZX11s in the country. We got it as the ZZR1100. So at least it is a bit more traceable if they do find it (soon).

[Jase H]

Cheers bud,

Hope they dont take that long!!

Who are you with?

I'm insured with Swann. Cheapest at the time but when things like this happen you get what you pay for.

Hope your payout is quicker - if it is I'd like to know who you're insured with. Maybe I could give them a call for the next bike. Cheers.

[Patrick]

Offer the "finder" some beer... and donuts....:woohoo:

[Disco Dan]

Cheers everyone for the support - reading all your well wishing comments has been really helpful.

I feel like I have lost an arm or a leg - my manager at work thought I was crazy when I joked about bereavement leave... :crybaby:

Our bikes really do become a part of us - non-bikers really cannot understand that.

Thanks again everyone - I will keep you all posted on any developments.

Believe me, if I catch the fucker I will be taking a severed hand down to the trophy shop to get mounted.

I have a few options if my baby is not returned - I will be riding again soon and the "which bike" thread will hopefully not be far away...

[DingoZ]

Sorry to hear about your bike.....Hope it gets located, and the thief punished...

Is not a nice feeling at all.. While I was living in Aucks, my Clubsport V8 was stolen from me. I was literally sick to my stomach for about a week. Felt totally violated. Good thing was I got it back around 9 months later, and the original offender got some jail time.... Vehicle was found cause he ran a red light and was stopped by the police, who did a check...dodgy plates, and long story short, got the car back and he got a cell mate...:)

So fingers crossed your bike reappears at some stage.......

[Deviant Esq]

Any updates Dan? :hug: (non gay)

[YellowDog]

We all look up and identify the bikes we see on the road and give 'the nod'.

With this number of open eyes on the case, if the bike is out and about with whatever No. Plate it now has, it will get spotted.

My new bike will have one of those new remote paging alarms and a remote locator. May be a false sense of security, but with out any sense of security I just wouldn't risk having an expensive bike.

DD we all want you to get your bike back. Good luck.

[Max Preload]

I don't want to get your hopes up, but I'm pretty sure I saw this bike on Thursday afternoon northbound on the southern at about 2pm exiting at Papatoetoe, with a pillion. I remember registration because it's similar to my mates ZX12R with the 8 and the U (his is double U). In which case it's in use on the road and might well get picked up (especially given the way it was being ridden).

Didn't you used to live in Manurewa?

Sounds like my mate, he lives out that way and has the same bike...

As for the chick it'll be the mrs lol.

[Deviant Esq]

Got your new bike yet Dan? And will it fill the void in your heart and soul? :confused:

Ooo sounds good. Post up some pics when you get it :cool:

Why didn't you make sure I got to take it for a ride before it left Christchurch? Y'know, quality control and all that... :Pokey: :oi-grr:

Well I was going to fly down there and check it out myself but the guy just about dropped his phone when I said I was in Auckland...

He said he would ride it up for me - then I have not really had a chance to get hold of any KB'er in the area to go take a look just in case there is nothing major wrong with it.

[Tank]

WOW that was quick. Did insurance pay out that fast? Is so who are you with?

Glad you got sorted with a new bike - remember to post pics.

-Tank

[Kittyhawk]

Bets are now open for when the bike gets dropped and new scratched fairing designs come into play... :sick:
