Default Stolen - heartbroken! WV06 FXG

My 06 SV650S has been stolen from my home address early hours of Friday morning. It is red, no modifications, some slight scratching to the grab rail where my errant husband attached a bungee cord, and is reg WV06 FXG.
Someone burgled the house and took the keys, then broke through the locks on the back gate. Yes we had a ground anchor and hefty chain but they took my keys from the house and simply unlocked the bike while we were in bed.
Made off with the bike and half our house.
I got married on this bike and also did a 1000 mile in 24 hours trip on it - after waiting four years to afford it, I finally bought it new in 2006 just for someone to come and steal it from me....
Please keep eyes open for me - I am absolutely heartbroken
Thanks

Sorry to hear this

Add a location as well, so other members in the area can keep an eye out.

Sorry - location is Connahs Quay in Flintshire. Was taken in the early hours but the police tell me that the automatic numberplate recognition on their cameras only work for cars, not for bikes....

Thanks for the advice, its appreciated

That's because they are generally forward facing. If they emptied your house as well then it's probable it all went in a van. If there are ANPR cameras near your house then they might be able to identify the van so don't lose all hope.

They originally thought they had used my bike as transport at helmets, coats and gloves also went - but since then so much has turned up missing that we are certain that they must have used a van.

One of the neighbours has handed in a home CCTV tape to the police which pointed to my back yard. We are hoping that will show how they left. Then, if they are in a van, they can check the cameras again - it is only if they rode off that we are a bit stuck

Thanks
