A stolen bike section in general would be great, considering this and visordown are two of the most popular biking forums in the UK where people would actually look.

Keep the VIN and engine numbers private. Registration number can help, but as Lone-Wolf put it in this thread

Description, make, model, colour scheme, any unique identiication points, modifications, etc might help as well as location and approx time. Anything else is maybe asking for problems down the line.

Just my thoughts of course Thumbs Up

Oh great, something I'm really sure I suggested at least six months ago, and was told to shut up, it's not worth the thought. Something which now seems to be getting credit as an idea(which is good). Rolling Eyes
