Bandit Has been Stolen: Leeds

[Dabura]

Some thieving scumbags stole the bandit last night. Cut the locks and wheeled it off. Phones the police and insurance and spent a few hours around the area looking and asking but can't see it. Absolutely hearbroken and for the third time I won't have a bike for summer,


Looks like this but has a black fly screen. Reg is M815 KPJ

I assume we are talking Oxford locks?

Hope you find it.

[ADSrox0r]

What locks were fitted?

Yes oxford locks, cut the chain and pried the disc lock. I thought I might be okay as I live in the top corner of a square but apparently not

Thanks drsnoosnoo

Done cansa

Yes I think I'll be going almax next time as this seems to of been done with bolt cutter and a crobar so even in they find it I reckon the front disc will be fucked. That's a very kind offer of you paddy I may take you up on. I'm off on holiday on the 1st so I'm hoping to have it all sorted by when I get back but I doubt it. Even if it is I'm looking at about a £400 payout


On a plus I won the lottery thing at work so that's £90 coming my way for the next one

Sorry to hear it.

[P.addy]

I'd not be too fussed about the claim, my £800 theft claim has added minimal to my insurance this year

That said, it is not worth much in insurance eyes, add the excess and possible premium rape...

[grr666]

Have you considered moving? It may be you are supplying the local yoots with their summertime plaything year on year.

I'll be lucky to get a four hundred quid out of all this but alsa it's to late now, we will we what happens and if I can find another bike dirt cheap and buy better locks. Hoping to land a new job so that will help money wise. Just spent another two hours walking around looking for it but i can't find it. Looks like I'll be a bus wanker yet again

First year of owning a bike here and my first theft so just this summer's toy.

Extremely gutted for you mate. I liked the pic you put of the bike with the Peacock, makes it worse you had good times on the bike.

Worst nightmare, I hope it's found intact.


I've been lucky, I've not had a bike I owned stolen yet.

I had a panicked call from the office one morning checking I was alive as the BMW company bike had been found crashed and they assumed it was me and had staggered off to die somewhere.

Where abouts in leeds you from? Will keep my eyes peeled in west leeds. May sound a bit daft but have you made a facebook post for people to share? I know it sounds daft and cringy as hell but its one way of getting your post spread around leeds quickly.

Keeps hunting - including all of the one-way streets in the local rabbit warren estates.

If it was stolen to sell on - possibly as parts - then it is usually parked on the street somewhere for a few days before being moved on to a garage. This is in case it has a tracker or similar fitted, left for a few days to let the batteries run down.

If it was nicked for a joyride, and the police haven't called yet, then it will be in a park or woods. Possibly burnt, probably a bit trashed but fixable.

Sad stuff, that looked in pretty nice condition as well.

Enjoyed the "where you been" and "what you done" posts.

Sorry fella, what utter low-life scum

[Dabura]

Thanks for the kind words guys it was in surprisingly good shape for a 21 year old 40K-er but scruffy here and there but the paint scheme and seat looked smart and was why I bought it.

No word from plod about it so I assume it's being broken down for parts or they couldn't get it started(special technique) hopefully get a new bike when I back from my holiday. Don't know what to get currently torn between trx 850,sv 650, or ccm,fzr6 and sports 400s if the budget will stretch

I've yet to play the insurance game so I'll see what it says, this time I won't have 3 points to admit too so it might balance out. What's my stance on reguard to my current insurance. It entitled me to ride other bikes 3rd party will that carry on untill the year is up or will it stop when they pay out?

Was passed a name today of a local scrote who was seen going through people's gardens. Is there anything I can do or do I let it go at this point. I fancy going round and taking the door off but if they're wrong it's going to go badly and I can hardly knock on the door and ask. Plus no visibility to the garden. Is it worth telling plod or do I leave it and taking it as a lesson
