So sorry for you guys, I know this sickening feeling unfortunately to well. Can’t say anything you don’t already feel. I only just heard back from the police this year about a bike I lost over 10 years ago.... Feck knows how these things stay under the radar for so long. Just post the pix everywhere to make the bikes unmovable and offer a reward for recovery. That takes druggies outa the Picture... then hope for the best. Police won’t be much help here guys sorry to say. I hope the power of inter web helps you more so than it did me. Hope you get them back OR karma is a bitch!

Terrible mate but you could be jumping to conclusions saying it’s someone that’s been round yours for parts or whatever. When stuff is being moved about, or you’re just putting your bike back in the garage after a ride out there are always scummy eyes watching. They are everywhere and they watch and wait and choose their moments. Same thing happened with a truck of my dads, the c**ts had been watching him for weeks. The only bike to go in that shed was midlifes last week my bike hasn't moved or any other of mine in 3 years and i live in a quiet village on a quiet crescent. No its not some passer by its some one who has been to my house or most likely a friend of some who has been to my house and they showed them were i live and told them there are bikes to steel at this place.

Norbo & Steve,
I'm so disappointed for both of you.. It s truly sickening feeling made even worse by the fact you constantly question yourselves afterwards.. what if etc.. I had a break in last month, didn't tell anyone as no bikes were taken but they spent a considerable amount of time trying to get into the gun cabinet and the safe where the keys are kept.
I've fitted CCTV everywhere now... The guns are on red care and always have been but the rest of the house was left unguarded... I've had lots of forum members to my house and let them in the garage. I don't want to stop trusting people so hope it's not one of our own....
I came home to the back windows in and my first thing was to check the garage....!
Steve, If there's anything I can do to help, let me know, you've always been a help to me..
Reg

Norbo's bike is so unique , anything off there will have it's own identity , I feel that bike will turn up as the scum will realise they can't do anything with it
Hope both turn up saying that
Always found with my bike when at pubs and meets, it always the shifty looking folks that have a good look at LC's !

I agree with that almost nothing can be resold from it thats why i think its some one who was told about my from a customer who has ben round and they just grabed the 2 bikes closest to the door. With any luck they are so stupid they will try and sell the stuff abut im hoping with enough people looking out and links on face book and other forums that some will get offed something and we can go round and point out the error of there ways witha few bats

Truly gutted for you guys.
I think with the amount of exposure this has been given the bikes will turn up. Thieves are probably reading this and know they are fooked. I just hope and pray you get to catch the b*****ds and dispense some community discipline, I know there will be no shortage of people willing to help……..

Just about to say have you done house to house etc? Called the police as above, would of taken a van to move them, narrows it down. Also going to say are their any anpr cameras nearby on that main road? Also isn’t there a petrol station up the road? Forecourt cctv could be checked within time frames noting any van vrm if possible, potentially they stopped before coming to your home, what time frame are you talking about? Guessing middle of the night normally 12.30 ish to 5.30 ish.

Just got to hope they don’t really know what they have stolen. In that case when they try to move it on it will be very conspicuous. The other thing that should work in your favour is that the LC community is really connected so even if these don't come up for sale in part or whole all of us will be looking at bikes at pubs, rideouts, bike nights etc etc. I want to believe it’s a question of when they come to light not if.

If mine is kept in one piece I fear someone else will be conned
As mine was being delivered it had the keys in it and the v5 was attached to it
Someone may end up buying it and not realising it is stolen unroll the try 're register it in their name
More likely it will be stripped for parts
Still feel sick over this, thanks for everyone who has shared on various sites and are keeping their eyes out
Steve

Don't come on here every day, but having just read this news has made me feel really sick. Have only met Norbs once when I went to his house to collect a couple of bits (F1 fork decals and Hagon progressives), but was struck by what a genuinely nice guy he was and how dedicated he was to the LC cause. I can't believe someone on here could potentially do what he suggests (i.e. put someone they know on to his bikes), but if he is right, it brings human nature down to new disgusting levels and I truly hope this isn't the case. Being inwardly religious (not a church-goer, but spiritually feel connected with all that is good in the world), I believe that scum-bags like this will get their comeuppance in the end. In other words, 'What goes around, comes around'.
Good luck with the outcome of this, Norbo and Steve - my thoughts are with you as I can only imagine how you must be feeling after all the work that has gone into these creations.
