    Hi glad to hear it all turned out for you guys.
    I have a query? You didn'y say how the cops finally tracked him down but reading between the lines he wasn't using his own bloody van was he!!!
    On a Motorcycle you're penetrating distance, right along with the machine!! In a car you're just a spectator, the windshields like a TV!!

    I know you're taking the piss.

    But if you create a market for stolen parts, the bad guys just steal more bikes to meet the demand.

    at least they got the bastard, but its a sad end to Mrs O's pride and joy, I'd be devastated.
    Still she has a new toy now, so its all good... but a bit of time in the slammer wouldn't be a bad thing for the toerag

    What a fucking jack ass!!!!!!!!!! Even a bit of tape would have solved that one!
    Typical! no brains, no conscience, no sense of right and wrong, maybe his parents need to be charged as well! That might stop the cycle.

    And big ups to the police sounds like they did a great job, kept you informed and did everything possible. They are often smashed on this forum (and others) - but here is proof that they DO go ofter the scum!

    Glad that it worked out as well as possible for you given the circumstances.

    Yeah they did a great job. I guess that having a rego and the security footage gave them at least a starting point instead of what they probably usually get which is "err I think someone stole my bike, can you find it please". So big thanks to the witness who bothered to get involved in the start and big thanks to the police for acting on the info they received.
