I figure it's either the parts or joy riding.

Here's the run down

Honda NS250R freshly painted Deep Metallic Blue stolen last night from Henderson Valley Rd. walked out of his back yard between 7:30 and 8:30 last night. Rego 14YEB.

Lights were on people were home... Mate was out dropping off the painter who had just returned the bike.

I wouldn't want to be the person caught with this bike... My mate is not too happy to say the least.

If you come across this bike can you pease flick me a PM or call John on 027 5186001

Cheers

Sorry to hear about your bike. I hope you get it back.

Apparently - Looking around holes in brick walls in Glenfield may be a good place to start.

Lets just say my mate won't be making that mistake again.

Thank you, my interest is in trying to protect my own bike, especially when I travel into the high risk areas. (cities etc)

Living in a benign relatively safe area makes me naive, ignorant and vulnerable to these bastards.

You guys on KB are helping me to wise up a bit.

Thanks again, John.

PS: Good luck in finding your bike and the bastard that stole it.

Bastards I say.

Imagine this bike in dark blue...

This is a recent picture pre new paint.

**Alive** · 18th May 2008, 16:25

Rims are still black and front forks still had red letters on them.

There were also a set of those poxey blue lights on the tyre valves that light up when it's riding along... these would have probably been removed.

Mate not being a smartass here.
Im now in Corban Avenue. At about 8.00 last night I heard a stroker coming from HSN Valley having its nuts revved off of it followed by the --OHH FUCK this is an off camber downhill left hander --then back on the gas really fucken hard as they went past me

Good news folks...

Bike turned up last night.

Bad news...

The gang assosiate riding it ended up in bushes at around 130kmph while being chased bu the cops on the Riverhead/Coatesville Rd last night.

Good news...

They got the prick and he claimed he recieved it and gave the coppers the name of the guy he says stole it.

Bad news...

Going to cost my mate $130 odd bucks to get it out of impound + cost of repairs.

Oh well at least he's got it back....

Thanks to everyone who kept an eye out for it.
