Theft...
One of the guys I work with had the radiator stolen off his Hornet last night. It was kept in Islington, just off the City Road.
Rather than take the bike, the removed the bits they wanted - I've wondered for some time if this happens, and clearly it does! Any ideas where he can get good Honda spares? |
Dave Silver is the usual place for Honda stuff.

A friend of mine had his aftermarket exhaust stolen a few weeks after he fitted it - he rode all the way home (with ear plugs in) thinking 'why does everybody keep looking at me', and only discovered his loss when he got home :evil:

i never thought about this but it is very easy to nick a race can prob only take 2 mins.... thats quicker than its taken my to type this.............

We had a spate of levers going missing a while back... Mine never got done for some reason. Ah yes, it's because they were all bent :)

I've heard of this happening, makes me think that torx fasteners might be the way forward on a bike.
I heard of a bloke who had his front calipers nicked and didn't find out until he woke up in A&E... :shock: |
Torqs are useless for anything but irritating the home DIY-er, since you can get a set of bits for £5 from Maplin
|
Nobody's nicking my exhaust now. :twisted:
(BAH, no pictures!. I'll just have to say its mangled) |
The way to stop thieves stealing your parts is do your own servicing, using 12 point (rather than hex) sockets and "cheese" the corners off all the bolts. No way they'll get them off then. :oops: :)
