    Cool

    Nope

    That is all there is. But I guess there is a big chance they could be Yamahas...

    I have an alibi


    ps: yeah they are a decent crowd. Ive dealt with them many a time, always a pleasure to deal with. They will have insurance obviously so hopefully everyone comes out the other side ok

    Provincial motorcycle dealers rarely stock road bikes. The Yamaha dealership in New Plymouth is no exception.

    Yeah, this was a bit of a culture shock for me when I moved down here. I'm used to wandering into a bike shop and seeing walls covered in full face helmets, leathers everywhere and a veritable sea of fairings (UK and Auckland) came down here to see lots of brightly coloured high impact plastic.

    Where do you stock the motorbikes bro?
    Over there
    They're not motorbikes, they're chicken chasers.

    EXCEPT... Bike Torque in Taumarunui. Russell Josiah normally stocks more road bikes than lots of city dealers. Good bugger to deal with, as well

    I have hatched the perfect plan for these thieving arse-holes!

    All I need now is a plan on how to do it without getting caught. Bastards.

    Work in progress. John.

    Both (not three) were Yamaha dirt bikes, brand new 250cc and a 450cc. Another bike shop in Pukekohe(I think) had the same happen the night before....

    That is a shame alright.
    I concur with everyone here, I've bought stuff from Mach 1, they are great people to deal with.

    Word sure gets around fast ha

    Yeah, we had 2 bikes stolen, a brand new YZ250F which had only arrived on Friday, and a 07 YZ450F. Both bikes are white.

    The fuckers broke the lock and were in and out in 30seconds.
