    The In-Laws live off Orakei Rd, cars get broken into fairly regularly along their street. It was worse when they lived in Meadowbank (I guess closer to a certain suburb I won't mention)

    Just filled out my claim form and sent it back to Kiwibike Insurance, who are very helpful by the way. Apparently Swann have a 30 day recovery period... didn't realise it was that long but owell, so long as it gets sorted I'll be happy

    Sorry but I gotta put it out there.

    The thing that really quizzes me is that from all the the bikes you can steal, why steal a Hyosung?

    Is it because it's red and shiny?

    Coz it's more worthwhile than stealing a CT110 postie bike
    Shaken, not stirred in the shakey city!

    Yeah screwdriver does it easily.

    Ah I missed this thread.
    Sucks.
    But yea, I don't think it'll be on the roads, I reckon someone wanted your shiny plastics and can, they'd be thick to try and ride it anyways. Keep looking on te bright side, payday is only a coupla weeks away.

    Sorry to hear that man.

    Worst thing is that you cant do anything better to prevent it being stolen next time. chain it to the street pole?? or when you catch the theif cut his nuts off, (or her clitorus)
    Thats whats up.

    Sux man but I for the life of me wonder why folks leave their bikes out on the road?There's a dude who lives down the road from me,leaves his CBR250 out on the road everyday!It's like it's saying "please steal me,I don't like my owner" everytime I pass it!
    Mate,bumma that happened,I'd be more wanting it to NOT be recovered myself...it's like someone kidnapped ya woman and had their nasty way with her,you'll never look at her the same.
    Anyhow,good luck whatever way it goes.
