Some m*therf*cker stole my Buell (Auckland, 2 April)

[James Deuce]

RFID.

50gms of C4 moulded to the bottom of the tank.

Bike ridden without immobilizer key.

Boom.

Priceless.

This is all a bit sad. Apparently, the pleece don't put much effort into investigating motor vehicle thefts now because they don't have the resources and because MV thefts are so common. It's nuts!
What's the total value of the theft here? Two bikes and a van - $60k at least? If there was an armed robbery of this magnitude, or someone doing 100km/h over the limit, they'd be all over it. And what's really galling is that you have a video, and they're still disinterested in investigating.

Things are pretty fucked when more resources are put into enforcing speed limits than into crimes like this.

But you knew that.

yes - i did - but it's really good to hear that i'm not being unreasonable being pissed off.
i will put that video up everywhere i can.
it would be funny if i got into legal trouble by posting it - wouldn't it?

[ManDownUnder]

i'll get it tonight and see what i can do.
i'm pretty video savvy so should be able to get it into a form we can post it everywhere.
also considering TV3.

the guy i want is the one IN MY BUILDING who tipped them off.
he's the one who will answer to me.

oh yes.

Oh give me that link when you have it... we can start having some fun...

[Badcat]

Does the building security system log who opened the door & when?

i will find out today - surely the proximity tag key has a unique id.
will get footage and find out....

Terrible news dude, hope the insurance company looks after you and you get a new one out of it.

You only got it last year too didn't you?

yep - current thinking is that someone in my apartment building stole it - or tipped off the thieves. i will find him.
have all the footage now - logging it tonight for the cops and will get it up on youtube soon.

[BAD DAD]

Sorry for your loss. Hope it doesn't get ridden through a brick wall like the last stolen bike on this site.

Gunnyrob stole my thunder in a way. I was going to say, " I' ll be checking out all the brick walls round our area" but was wondering if MDU and ELCOYOTE might think I was raiking them up a bit if I mentioned brick walls.

Awesome... be sure to post it up here!!...

The guys that got 'interrupted' stealing my bike were in a blue holden ute towing a cage trailer with a concrete encrusted wheelbarrow in it (contractors I guess)... but then no doubt that vehicle was stolen too...
Mine was out in massey at the time...

Could possibly be the same guys/ring??

[sAsLEX]

Shit. Once I get a flat, my bedroom will be where I sit my bike and I'll make sure any cretin can't get the bike out without disturbing me. Considering I won't be able to afford insurance...

Wont fit in my room, but then all the rooms are mine! So I keeps it in the lounge!

RFID.

50gms of C4 moulded to the bottom of the tank.

Fuel and its vapour in the tank probably wouldn't ignite all that well, plus the tank will absorb alot of the force.

I say C4 Moulded Tank Pad. Let him live with no balls or lower intestines!

Bad news Ken, I know how pleased you were with the bike.

Just for general interest, I have Ken's Ducati ST4 which he traded on the Buell. Lovely bike in showroom condition and a credit to you, safely locked up in my garage...but I'll just pop out for a look.

Bastards!!

Hey guys, I am the other victim with the black GSXR , firstly I want to thank you Badcat for all the work here (cutting the footage, finding out the rego # of the van etc.) I’ll promise to will help you kick/cut the guy’s balls who opened the gate and let the van in. So guys if anyone sees a black/silver gsxr 600, K6 rego number 79YKN pleeeaaaasssse let me know. Actually Badcat’s bikes year is also 2006 and the rego number similar 79 ZEG, maybe it’s a coincidence????!!!!!
Well my bike wasn’t insured so I wont be buying a new one soon unfortunately …will have a break for a while.
*******Pretty upset, but trying not to stress out*********
