Would your mate be Alex? and Tracey? Any more info on the 4207 guy? An address will do.

Brad, I've had two moderns stolen a few years ago & it sucks, but you dont let it eat you up. Just hope crash karma gets to the theiving pricks!
Anyway as regards Facebook, a customer of ours got his two minibikes piched just recently, his secetary decides to ask on Facebook if anybody spots these bikes (picture posted), next day a reply saying some low life's have been riding up and down the street on those bikes, cops called, bikes returned, low life's nabbed for drugs & money & stolen property!
First time I've ever heard of a good result - but it did happen.

Usually the little pricks will have it stashed in the bush some place and ride it until the gas runs out or battery goes flat or something .... given how easy it is to identify I think it will finally come back, usually with shitty camo paint job.

Offering a reward for information will usually have Autos 'mates' fingering him faster than you can say 'next meth fix'

Any sightings/news.?

No. One thing is for sure. It was a random guy and not someone I knew targeting the bike. My neighbour realised someone had a go at getting into his shed as well. He wasn't successful there so he then ended up in mine.

[shortshifter]

Sorry to hear about this Brad.As you said lucky thats all they took,but they might be back.Some people are oxygen thieves,f@#$%^&g arseholes.Interesting bike never heard of a Vertemati bit like a Vor?

Vor = vertemati off road. First of them. Über trick for 1997. Gear drive cam, cassette style gearbox, no air box, hydraulic clutch, frame bolts together, marzocchi front and ohlins rear. Would have been the coolest pre 2000 bike....

Them's fighting words Brad 
I reckon my 99 Smetts FC600 would give it a run for its money!

My biggest worry is that some scumbag does to me what they did to your VOR.

[IT490K1983]

Was this bike ever recovered?
