    Four VERY happy bikers

    Well folks you might have heard about some lowlife scumbag ripping off my lads bikes
    Well thanks to a VERY understanding insurance company (Iag/state)who handed over a cheque to Henderson Motorcycles on the understanding I'd be buying bikes of "some sort"
    AND some really hard work on the part of Adam and the crew at Henderson Motorcycles - the lads are really really happy
    I can't emphasise enough just how much effort Adam and his team went to to put this deal together for the boys on the limited budget I had.
    Thanks a MILLION guys (and gal)
    Give our mate Speedpro a yell if you want the same kinda service
    The attached picture shows how happy they all are
    For the safety nuts (rightly so) the picture is posed so no they wont be riding "like that"
    Er now I guess I need an offroader of my own to chase em on.

    WOOT WOOT, nice to see a happy ending to the saga Frosty.


    Those look like some happy wee chappies
    To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded

    Mate - that's such excellent news.

    Well done the insurance company and Henderson Motorcycles.

    Baby Bikie is hanging tough there on the Suzuki.

    and isn't Baby Baby Bikie looking awfully like Dad now?

    Enjoy the bikes kids!

    I better not show Tim and Nick - they'll go sooooo green!

    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    Very good! And big ups to the shop for coming to the party! Now watch the security arrangements for them, I'm sure those lowlifes may be biding their time again... but on the positive side, those are some happy chappies!

    Glad that one's been resolved speedily and as painlessly as possible given the situation! Kids should never have to deal with lowlives such as the scumbags who pinched the bikes in the first place, but they sure look happy to have new wheels to replace them.

    There's a good Dad right there behind the camera. Good job Frosty.

    Thumbs up

    And what was the decent insurance company that made this possible?

    May the bridges I burn light the way.

    That's just brilliant ... lucky guys ... boy's dream! I know your lockup was very secure, so how the hell are you going to stop them getting nicked again? As someone else said the local hoods are just waiting for you to replace them for a repeat visit. Happens with farm bikes a lot.
