This will probably last about as long as it takes one of the scrotes to die in said pursuit....

But at least its a start!

That claims it had been running for six months, with measurable success!

Funny that, BCF'ers are getting robbed yet the popo reckon there has been a reduction. They need to get some of those Brazilian coppers over on a work placement.

Er... "scrambler motorbikes"? Laughing

The road oriented version of the ~200kg F800GS?

Bash plates and 90:10 tyres? Such Adventure, very LongWay. Rolling Eyes

Like fvck will they ever actually deploy tyre deflators against a moving scootay. Spray-and-pray-for-an-arrest, maybe.

I - genuinely - wonder how long it will be before one of those "scramblers" gets jacked.

I read the article and wondered the exact same thing. They're a prime target

Hmm, maybe that's the plan, while the scrotes are after the 'scramblers' the rest of us are a little safer?

As long as the Po Po took the option to pay for extended BMW warranty the plan may come together. 😉

Apart from that, it would be a fucking cool shout to run-down some baklaf scroterists on a dirt bike in That Llandahn.
