[honda_power]

man that sucks, cant be too many people after a tank and other parts for your bike, ring up the dealers

[Rupe]

Very sorry to hear that, I have pics, and all the chasis numbers if you need them.

[noobi]

theres triple x moto in east tamaki (09 265 2135 ) who i deal with for gasgas parts, call them and tell them what happened and ask if they can keep a look out for anyone wanting yellow bits for a 02 ec200, dont think theres many of those bikes around
sorry to hear about it being pinched, scum of the earth bike thieves:angry2:

[Phil_86]

coop serial number and stuff would be good mate. but i think people keeping and eye out as there rare might catch them then we should hang them in public.. and pics please email me details render.86@hotmail.com cheers bud.
so gutted right now.

[Shane06]

hey bro real sorry to hear about your bike..my 03 yz250 got stolen out of our garage at night while we were asleep we are in the westauck region..no insurance also..my cousin had a 01 cr250 he never used so i am really lucky he is letting me use it other wise with a family i couldnt see myself affordin another one any time soon..hope you get mobile again.

[Mumbles]

Just had a thought mate (took me by suprise as I dont get them often)
If you got the missing parts why not try listing the tank (trademe) to see if you get any bites.... but make the price something stupied so no one in their right mind will actually buy it... but then say your open to offeres - might also be a good idea to say the rest of the bike is stuffed....

its only a thought....:whistle:

You could even say that to someone asking if it fits to give you the serial number (or last 4 dig) of the frame and you can let them know from that? (double sneaky)

ill list it for you if you like, im in gisborne and my trademe account says so to suit... would cause less suspicion if its not listed from the same area

That fucking sux man

Cunning plan, good chance to catch the cunt

Done,

Don't think I've ever seen another one with a FMF Gnarly pipe by the way

That sucks know the feeling though and you have my sympathies for what it's worth, I know it is a gut wrenching feeling.
We had five (yes five) stolen out the gargae one night.... no insurance either although in the end managed to get the house insurance to cough up somethng towards it. Hope somebody catches some of these bastrads one day. They need a realy good beating.

[B0000M]

well i must say whoever stole this one is a game bugger!, i cant say ec200's are common! should be really easy to spot!

what distinctive markings are we looking for?

[laserracer]

Man that sux.... i hate barstards that steal bikes.. you could check out my yz426 4sale on KB..but then again you probably want a 2 stroke eh

[Mumbles]

Mmmmm the wear pattern on the rear shock looks the same...............

[noobi]

So what yah think????
http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=292834924

thats the same bike. spectro sticker on left side of swingarm, small crank on left rear number board.

[Rupe]

thats the same bike. spectro sticker on left side of swingarm, small crank on left rear number board.

also the exhuast, the nut that holds the kick start on, the cut sproket cover, and the list goes on. Same bike

[barty5]

heres some xtra ones rupe sent me check kick start bolt

[Ktmboy]

Damn. Still has the spectro oils sticker on the swing arm and the wear on the rear reservoir is identical.
Seat is different but that wasn't on it when nick was it?
I'd be paying a visit. Actually sitting outdside right now.

[oldguy]

Sorry to hear mate, that suck I know how you feel, hope you get it back soon.

[Ktmboy]

Strange. Where is Phil 86 now days. Seems to have vanished off the forums. Last post a year ago after said bike was knicked. Come in Phil where are you?

[flyingcr250]

i spoke to his brother you said that he never got it back guess i might hear from him tomorrow ??? gave his bro the details

[noobi]

i emailed him.

[tnarg]

Yeah thats it for sure. Easy to prove and that bike shop will have to hand it over. Did anyone try his number that he put in his post?

[breakaway]

Hit up the bike shop. They'll be keen as to hand it back over. They can get into huuuuge shit for "Receiving Stolen Property".

[barty5]

All good but i think that was the same shop he picked it up from the day before it was stolen and he never got it back with all the bits either ???? read what you want in to that

[barty5]

I rang the number in his post and spoke to his brother and gave him my contacts and the auction details

[Reckless]

I bought my CRF 150 tyres from CMB they are out my way, well more towards Otara or Manukau. They seemed like ok guys not a back yard shop by any means.
Gonna be a shit for them if they have traded it and fixed it up in good faith but they may know the person who bought it in so the cops should be notified!!

Bloody good spotting Barty!

[Gibbo89]

only just saw this thread. freakin' sweet that 1 of you guys spotted it after all this time. i hope he gets it back soon and can give us an update to what happened!! i.e if he gave up after a few months etc.

good on ya kiwi bikers!!

:banana:

[vazza]

This is awesome.. I really hope he gets his bike back! Keep us updated!

[FlangMasterJ]

That's definitely it!

[breakaway]

All good but i think that was the same shop he picked it up from the day before it was stolen and he never got it back with all the bits either ???? read what you want in to that

I read that 10 times over trying to figure out what you're saying. If you're saying this is the shop he bought it it up from, then its not likely because he posted the thread on the 11th.

The listing ends on 9 June, which is 4 weeks from 13 May, which is the maximum length of a bike listing (Hell, I'm pretty sure it's 2 weeks, but just in case I'm wrong, I'm going worst case scenario).

So the bike was listed on trademe 2 days after his bike was stolen. In addition to this, I searched for previous listings of the same bike that have expired without anyone winning / listings that have been withdrawn on trademe, and didn't find squat. Which means this is the FIRST TIME this listing is running.

Stop fucking about, and tell the guy to go get his bike. I'm surprised someone would be sitting on their hands like this, after locating their stolen bike. I for one would be on a plane by now on my way down there.

I apologise if I have any of the facts wrong :blink:

[Jonno.]

11 May 2009

[breakaway]

Ah, I see, disregard all that I said about the dates, but original point still stands - why hasn't the rightful owner spoken to the shop etc yet? Or has he already and we haven't received any updates? :corn:

[barty5]

You got the facts wrong go to the 1st post you will see this started over a year ago when he bought the bike last year round February not long after he was having prob took it to a shop (think it was the one it is now for sale at on TM ) anyway the day after he got it home missing a few bits it was stolen. It has now been listed on TM over a year later spoke to his brother and he said he never got it back so it is still a stolen bike.

[denill]

WTF is going on here?

That seems to be almost certainly the bike that was (allegedly) stolen - so why the fuck hasn't it been resolved??

No dealer would be stupid enough to on-sell a bike that they knew to be stolen. Specially withh the distinctive features this still has.

So WTF is happening?? :mad::mad:

[barty5]

Only spoke to his brother last night about it as it was only noticed last night

[denill]

It has now been listed on TM over a year later spoke to his brother and he said he never got it back so it is still a stolen bike.

Does his bro know it's now advertised on TM??

Still sounds weird................

Any stupid scum bag thief would take the decals off the swingarm.

[barty5]

Bike picked up from shop missing some parts after having some work done next day bike stolen same shop appears to be selling it over a year later ???????????? sound sorta odd to me

[barty5]

yes he dose crime arnt bright the guy that stole mine had taken a Harley 2 years before did 6 months then went back stole the same bike and stored it at the same place few cans of of a six pack missing there.

[denill]

Once upon a time a policeman would've sorted this.

That sorta stuff is not in their job description now.

They are out there catching dirty rotten low down speeders............

Priorites.....................

If it isn't road registered, wouldn't making sure it wasn't stolen be more difficult than just running the plate as you would do with a road registered vehicle?

[denill]

If it isn't road registered, wouldn't making sure it wasn't stolen be more difficult than just running the plate as you would do with a road registered vehicle?

My point is that - IMO they would not know it was stolen.

But this thing is so fucked up, who really knows??

[barty5]

nah still got engine and chassis numbers and there is some work i did behind the left crank case cover that would give it away as well youll find some liquid metal in there holding a certain part

[breakaway]

Interesting. Pull your thumbs out, and go to the shop, now.

[barty5]

only if it wast the shop that took it is it really fucked up other wise it all fit together be odd for a shop to do that though but hey who knows

[denill]

Where the fuck is Phil???

[Reckless]

Simply ring the cops with the information! Its as easy as that, they will take it seriously! You don't have to be the owner or do anything other than pass on the info you have. They will notify the owner via their compliant records and start an investigation on receiving stolen goods. Its as simple as that and it should be done now before someone notifies them of this thread and the bloody thing disappears. Do it now or PM me and I will call someone I know or give you her number, they need to go take possession of the bike now, as no one else has the authority to do so being unregistered.
These pricks need to be nailed and there is only one organisation that can do that!

[T.W.R]

cheers phil 0277771953 any way to get it back even if i gota buy it.

just ring him :yes:

[GOONR]

Simply ring the cops with the information! Its as easy as that, they will take it seriously! ...... they need to go take possession of the bike now......

Totally agree, someone needs to get to the bike before it disappears again.

[breakaway]

Yes but there isn't a central database of un-road-registered bikes in NZ like there is for Road registered bikes. Ya dig?

Anyway, I'm surprised (and amused) that the original owner has not shown up at the shop yet :corn:

[barty5]

Ive rang and spoken to the cops they said the owner needs to go and see them to do something about it and ive spoken to the owners brother who was going to pass the info on

[SpikedPunch]

Gonna ask the seller a few innocent questions just to see what kind of yarn they can spin.

[denill]

Ive rang and spoken to the cops they said the owner needs to go and see them to do something about it and ive spoken to the owners brother who was going to pass the info on

Well done you. You can say you've done something worthwhile today. :clap: :clap:

Be interesting to know the outcome - cos it's almost looking like Phil doesn't want the fucking thing back.

[Reckless]

Ive rang and spoken to the cops they said the owner needs to go and see them to do something about it and ive spoken to the owners brother who was going to pass the info on

Well mate you've done your bit and good on ya!!
I must say I'm very disappointed in the cops approach! Why arn't they at the very least going out and taking names and making sure the bloody evidence doesn't disappear?
I can only think Phil didn't report it as stolen in the first place? If he did they have the original theft complaint and the whereabouts of the bike, they don't need him, why no action??
Better not be to hard on the cops till we find out the details, be interesting to find out, but good on you Barty, good spotting and follow up!!

[barty5]

rupe spotted it on TM and weve both followed up on it i rang a mate who is a cop as well works out manurewa he is on duty tomorrow he has all the details and is going to do a search if it comes up will take his ute and go and repo it then start the investigation on how it came to be there etc etc

[tnarg]

Good spotting guys and good work. Hopefully this will get returned to its rightful owner.

[Gibbo89]

hope phil got his bike back!

If you could let us know what the outcome is, that'd be cool. Way too many bikes knicked from all over the place.
There was a story a while back about a container full of bikes & cars & whatever heading for the islands. (not sure how true that is)

[Phil_86]

Well this site has to be good for something, right?

EDIT: Oh yeah, forgot to add, go nail the bastards!

[barty5]

look like the bike shop are the ones who are going to lose out as its not the same shop so unfortunately if they bought or traded it they'll loose big time.

[Gibbo89]

this should be a sweet outcome for phil. good on Rupe for seeing the bike.

that man deserves a DB.

[Phil_86]

Hi Phil. Sorry I was getting a bit cynical as I could not make out why you had dissappeared.

And yeah, like the others, I hope you get your bike back.

It's good to know that the shop selling it is probably not involved in the theft - but it could cost them dearly.

Hope like fuck though that they have a trail leading the cops to the arsehole scumbags...................

[barty5]

cops have issued a job number so hopefully someone will be out to shop today

[Reckless]

well after a call from Barty I decided not to fob him off and get off my arse and go check the numbers!

This is the stolen bike the chassis numbers match!

[denill]

Get on your bike and do 150 kph down the Motorway and they will be there like flies. Carry on to the shop and say, "Now fucking do your job!". :Punk:

[GOONR]

Very funny, although I think it's crap that they haven't been to the shop already.

[barty5]

Just had a call from the police the bike has been picked up and is being processed now sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet

[denill]

Well done all you guys. You have impressed me HUGELY.........................:clap: :clap:

[Love my Bonnie]

Thats bloody fantastic

[Reckless]

Shit hot good work Barty and Rupe!!! And the boys in blue!!

Oh Btw Denhill
You might like to delete the bit you quoted off my post or your full post. I have deleted mine as I found out about half and hour after I posted. That the cops where at a firearms related incident and where delayed getting to the bike shop. So to be fair my post was a bit hasty and they where still on their way after I got home from my visit to check the bike out. So if you could delete your post where you quoted me it would be a bit fairer on the boys in blue.

[xen]

wow, great job :niceone:
Sux for the shop, hopefully they collected enough info on the scum for the cops to find em

Done. But they still took their fucking time.......................

[barty5]

Hahaha phil rang them asked them if they had a G/G for sale funny answer was no its been withdrawn

[Reckless]

Hahaha phil rang them asked them if they had a G/G for sale funny answer was no its been withdrawn

I feel for them, as long as they haven't had anything to do with its disapperance, and I have bought tyres etc from there in the past, they seem quite genuine, so lets not assume they have.
They have spent a shit load of money fixing the bike up up to loose it and their money in the end. Its a pity there is not a bike register for off road machines?

[barty5]

yeah it is a shame guess it comes down to doing your checks properly before you buy a bike cheap same as we are doing at the mo with one where looking at

[vazza]

Solid work! Lets hope they catch the swine!

[flyingcr250]

bout time the honest man had a win

[GOONR]

Good stuff, yeah bummer for the dealer. Assuming that they didn't know, it would be a bummer if they get done for handling stolen goods after losing out on the bike and all.

[Jonno.]

Awesome stuff. Especially being a non registered bike. Awesome stuff.
