Stolen lid - Birkenhead New World (21 March)

How about you just remove one of their hands, its seemed to have worked very effectively in Saudi Arabia... It'd make stealing a helmet that much harder to.

Hope the cunt comes into a situation when they need it. And it doesn't save them.

Thieving bastards, makes me sick when I hear things like that! John.

Check the next door neighbours... the Cash Converters... probably sold it there for some quick cash...

Supermarket may have cameras. Maybe a rego number on tape.

Bastards!!! I have a spare helmet here you are welcome to use, house contents insurance will cover that, excess will be the only cost...........sad old world we live in when some asshole takes a helmet off a bike.......

Thanks for the offers of Helmets, I went out of my way this morning to purchase one. I can't stand taking the bus or driving in to work it's such a pain in the ass.

I did just leave the helmet on the bike un-secured so partly my fault. Won't be doing that again in a hurry.

Don't actually have any pic's of the helmet, it's black with a shiny/tinted slightly see through visor. There are a few scratches on it here and there as well.

Oh well the new helmet is a Shoei XR1000, I'll be making sure as hell that one doesn't go missing.

Thank you for finally answering my question. Leaving a lid unsecured is asking for it to go missing in our country nowadays.
Lock it or lose it. Simple.

bloody thick tw@. That said, I got home last night and agent was showing people around house...put lid next to bike and mulled around house while they looked around and when they left I went inside...wasnt till this morning I thought...shit, where did I leave my helmet...fortunately last night wasnt the night the scum arse shit goblins decided to slither around my house and helmet was still next to my bike...whew....so we're all thick tw@s one time or other

I have never (and won't) lock my Shoei, just do up the strap and hang it over the right handlebar.

Anyone who touches my bike without my sayso, or helps themselves to my or my missus' helmet, has big balls (which will be removed before they take 2 steps). And after she's finished with them I'll have my turn ;-)

It will happen... when you're not looking... cunning little bastidges, these oxygen thieving thieves...

What fucking retarded lowlife scum would steal a secondhand lid that probably smells and might have already been dropped....

What fucking retard would buy a secondhand lid that probably smells and might have already been dropped....

Darwinian theory. Next time you drop your lid and know it's fucked leave it in Birkenhead and hopefully some thieving bastard will steal it, crash and then die due to head injuries.

yep... usually ill carry mine, or if not, itll go in the topbox. if thats full with stuff that cant be dumped, ill use the lock on the bike. only time the lid sits free on the bike is about 2 seconds before i put it on. carrying is the better option, cos my keys and gloves, goggles etc all go inside it quite nicely. if the helmet gets locked up, then so does everything else. the lock on the bike i dont trust...first time i unlocked the lid, it dropped before i realised.

even at the westpac helichopter ride, where there were helmets on bikes everywhere, mine got carried. for this one, not only the matter of theft, but the chance of it falling or being kicked.
