Stolen bike - Gixxer 750 k6

So my beautiful Gixxer 750 got stolen last night from East London, it's probably already in a different country, but if anyone sees any fishy gixxer a please report it! Red number MF06 VRW, pretty standard all around except for a tail tidy and after market exhaust.

Had a disk lock, chain and padlock, data tool S3 alarm, still didn't help!

Also as a side note...I'm insured through MCE, I've already notified them it was stolen but haven't yet made a claim, I was reading my policy documents again and they put the total value of the bike as 300, instead of 3,000, even though on the phone I clearly said 3,000. Any advise on how to proceed? Being quite young, my insurance is already pretty high, in fact MCE was the only one willing to insure on gixxer 750, if I make a claim, I'm guessing my insurance will sky rocket?

They'll pay you the market value of the bike i would imagine, irrelevant of what's written on the policy.

Aww, God dammit. Sad

No idea about the insurance although I'm sure they'll be keen to point out that they gave you plenty of chances and reminders to check your policy and spot all the errors and bullshit they'd put on it.

Best of luck.

Where abouts in E. London? Stolen from your house or what?

Stunning bike. I'm sure the new owner in Eastern Europe will enjoy it.

Damn, sorry to hear this - lovely bike.

What chain & lock did you have on it?

thanks for the help guys, well the policy is only about a week old as I just bought the bike...So I guess I can phone them up and say the details they have are incorrect?

Had an oxford disk lock, and chain and pad lock...I also ordered one of these: https://securityforbikes.com/proddetail.php?prod=P19-x.x-SS65CS which arrived a little bit too late......

And it was stolen from Homerton, Hackney... Sad

Shitter. All too often you hear about oxford products being made of cheese. Thumbs Down

Hope the claim goes well. Thumbs Up

ahh bugger, sorry for your bike loss. I guess if pro's decide they are having your bike then no amount of security chains is going to do it.

Need a security device where the bike blows up killing the thief, I would donate my bike just for the laugh of watching that!

I really should stop plastering pics of my bikes on the forum , or am I paranoid?

I'll ask around for you, I know a couple of people in Hackney. Depending on who done it, you may find that the bike is still local. I'm not too far away either. Thumbs Up

Sorry to hear about your loss, it's a right cunt.

The only insurance policy I ever had that guaranteed a pay out figure was the one I had for my Goldwing trike and for that I had to send in photographs, proof of what I paid for it and photocopies of all the documentation.

They then guaranteed to pay the £14000 I had paid in case of stolen written off etc. but value would be reviewed each year. That was a special policy through Carol Nash a few years ago, whether they do the same thing now I don't know.

For my Trophy, I told them (MCE) £12000 value with no excess and was specifically told it would be market value in case of theft/crash. Who decides market value I have no idea. I suspect it means 'we will try and buttfuck you'

Good luck with your claim. Thumbs Up
