Freshly stolen bike. 97 Ducati 748. Red. 23 TPL.

[hospitalfood]

Hi all.
My friend has had his bike stolen from a locked building basement in downtown Auckland.
My friends life is bad enough without this as he has bad kidney issues and spends a lot of time in hospital.
I doubt that it was insured as he is not flush, due to the fact he is to unwell to work.

so:-

1997 Ducati 748.
Reg 23TPL.
Red.
29,000 kms
2 key scratches on left hand side of tank.
a little rough but not to bad.
think the stand has been welded.

if you see it or think you see it please contact the police and then me.

lets get it back.

thanks

adam.

Hope it comes back!

Damn, I just seethe when I read shit like this, Bike thieves should be shot.

And guaranteed the scum who stole it is a habitual criminal shit bag.

Bring in the 3 strike rule I say.

I hate to think what I might do if I caught somebody trying to steal one of my bikes.
They did not come easy

No no. We shouldn't be too hard on the poor criminals... it may be just a phase they are going through and may grow out of it in time.

Arse-biscuits.

i'm out that way most days, i'll certainly keep an eye out. Don't see many 748's on a day to day basis.

Bring in the 3 strike rule I say.I love that idea... they steal my bike and they get caught, I get three strikes against them with the weapon of my choice.

I'm thinking 36" stilson to the head :bash:

This is a long shot, however I cycle most days into the city and saw a older style red duc parked up today around my cycle route from downtown to Newmarket. Knowing me, I have no idea about ducatis.

Of course I read saw this thread yesterday but it didn't strike me to have a snope at the bike. Probably just another duc but you never know.

Good idea if you could get the owner put up some pics aye!

Shoot on sight! You work your azz off to get the bike of your dream and a lolife azzwipe steals it.

Hope it turns up!!

Oh that really sucks. A 748 is a real enthusiast toy so to lose it must hurt big time. I think thieves should be hung by the ankles and pelted with hot coals until well done, then have red hot teaspoons inserted behind their eyes for a short while all the time being made to listen to loud Celine Dion.

Pass on my condolences from one duc owner to another.
