Ah damn! Thats not encouraging; so now we have to lock the bike up ALL the time until the very second before we ride off?!

Some people have no morals; I hope the theiving bastereds get caught, it might not be worth much but if its got two wheels its someones pride and joy and source of fun. I'd be upset if someone took my scooter (even though I have the SV) becasue its the principle

And thats bad on the polic not answering the phone, is there anyway you can get to the police station? Mind you, its probably shut

Least you got the CB coming along soon!

I would have been more upset you didn't call in for a chat than take the scoot in all honesty

Sorry to hear about this Mark.

If they leave it as is - ie with that exhaust then it should be pretty spottable.

Will keep an eye out - might get a chance to try out those titanium knuckles if I spot it.....

You want me to have a word with the guy who owns the Scooter graveyard if he will loan/hire you something for a few weeks - I have to talk to him on behalf of Jamie anyways.....

Bloody thieving little ****s.

I hope you get it back soon, you can't spend a month without 2 wheels, just 'borrow' another scooter off a local chav.

old adage...bad things always happen to the best people - really sorry to hear the news Mark, let me know if you need anything hun.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
And in the interests of saying, "it could be worse".....here is a (unfortunately unverified) story I found while browsing...

While transporting some unfortunate mental patients from one secure place to another, the newly appointed bus driver stopped at a roadside restaurant for natural break. On his return to the bus, all twenty patients were gone. Being a resourceful fellow and fearing the consequences of his negligence, he drove to the next bus stop, where he claimed to be a replacement for the usual service. Allowing twenty people aboard, the driver made straight for his destination, where he warned staff at the gates that the 'patients' were deluded and extremely volatile. The angry 'patients' were duly removed, sedated and incarcerated, and remained in detention for three days, until staff were able to check the records and confirm their true identities. The actual patients were never found.

Bummer Mark. I've still got the photographic evidence of your scoot finishing third in the breakfast run to the chalet last month though!
