« on: December 07, 2011, 09:47:29 am »
Well its my turn. Woke up to the open shed door to find my Vertemati 495 gone. Very rare bike, 1997 model in very good condition. Blue with a black rear guard. Cut through chain and proper bike cable.
Thank god that's all he took.

Brad im very sorry to hear that mate , i hope you get it back real soon. Mate have you considered a Dog as security  , i know there a pain in the arse but a mean dog is i still believe the best deterent .

I wonder if it was stolen to order , or just some oppertunist scum bag who took what he considered the most modern (valuable sellable in his eyes ).

Mate i really feel for you , its a mongrel thing to happen.

I reckon you might be onto something there Bill. Brad put up some images of the bike on Facebook last week.

The timing seems very coincidental. A warning to all of us?

Hope it turns up soon Brad, it won't be easy to hide.

I am also very sorry to hear about this. I have had bikes and gear stolen in the past, so I know how it feels when you find a door open and things are gone. But it could well be a big wake up call to all of us about Facebook. I have only just started to get involved with Facebook and recently added some pictures of my bikes. I think that I will now go back and delete them . Being a motorcycle enthusiast, it is only natural to want to share your passion with like minded people. This forum used to be pretty good for that , but has suffered a bit of late with lots of topics with no connection at all to bikes. But at least there is some degree of anonymity here, making it a little bit harder for thieves to work out who you are and where you live.

Go through the security and having friends only and your profile,photos ect locked off.
Never say where I work or my location on profile page.

I couldn't agree more , i briefly dabbled with facebook a couple of years back but decided it was not for me privacy being the main reason .

When i tried to delete my account it was a major drama and all details were held for a year so i could reinstate the account at any time.

Back to the thread

I really hope that Brads theft is not realted to the FB thing . Brad is it worth contacting local gangs , it may cost you a few quid but i have found from experience that they are a lot more succsesfull than the police at getting things returned . I know some will say thats bullshit and encouraging crime but these people have better resources and are not tied to rules to get results .
