A white van with the registration number NL52 DLK was used by the gang who stole MCN’s long term test GSX-R1000 in London on Tuesday, April 23..

Police have been unable to trace the van so far because it has been registered to a false address, so we’re asking for your help. If you see it call 999, give the registration number and its location and the police will link the call in with the theft of our GSX-R (reg number GU04 YMY, frame number: 102306).

This was a professional outfit. Police have two witnesses to them casing the bikes in the parking bay in Farringdon Lane, Islington, and then returning with the van. This will not be the first time they’ve struck. If you see the van warn other riders and make that call.

Wait, aren't there cameras all over London for that traffic congestion charge thing?

Can't they trace it roughly from that?? I mean, its not an invisible van, is it?

The sad truth is, if they are a pro outfit, they will have a different plate for each hit, and the original for normal roaming around (proper plate, no crime or suspition). Good info for you Londoner's though Thumbs Up .

F**king scum. Wan**rs once tried to steal my bike, but couldn't start it Rolling Eyes They used the wrong wires to attempt to hot wire it, didn't put the choke on nor the fuel tap and didn't see that I use the kill switch as an immobiliser! Brick Wall

Fuc*ers all so broke the top yoke and bent the left bar and cost me nearly £400 and dumped it on a beach.

I hope something shit happens to them. Evil or Very Mad

Chances are they ain't from down south anyways, the police reckon there's about 12 organised outfits that steal bikes from all over the UK. They don't care how far they have to travel to get to the bike they want, at the end of the day stealing 9 grands worth of bike isworth travelling for, then obviously you want to get as far away from that area as possible, as quickly as possible.
