Default Tracker - Police won't do anything.

Howsabout this for a result for spending £500 on a tracking system...

Owner traces stolen bike, but police ‘can’t help’
A motorcycle owner who found his stolen bike using a GPS tracker was told by police that they did not have the power to search the lock-up garages where it was being held. Sam Jackson had fitted his £9.000 Yamaha R6 with a tracking device just in case it was stolen from his home in Haringey, North London. The 27 year old said that the machine was taken on Oct 28 and he had immediately altered police, telling him that he had already tracked down it location, six miles away. He gave the exact coordinates from his GPS tracking device, showing where it was parked in Upper Edmonton, Enfield, but police told him there was a large number of lock-up garages in the street and that they did not have the power to take further action.
Also in Mirror P14.

The bloke should just break in and nick it back and the rest of what's in there for good measure.

Phone 999 and report a fire at the workshops. Fire Brigade will be through the door in jig time.
