Hey Stephan, I'm really sorry to hear about the bike theft I really feel for you and wish I could help in some way! If there is anything I can do just give us a bell. I will certainly be taking more care of my bike.

Not me this time, Sam. It is Nael who is unfortunate enough to make his first post about the theft of his bike. That sucks.

I've just managed to get fully comprehensive for my CRF so at least I can relax a bit more; now I only have to worry about my road bike.

Cheers,
Stephan

Sorry to hear about your bikes.
My XR 500 was lifted out of the company compound, they cut through a chain link fence,pushed it along a storm drain for 100mtrs to a vehicle ( tyre tracks) at night when the compound generators went off mmm???
While at work the labourer came to me and said he had seen a bike like mine near his village ( he had seen my bike before in our workshop ). When we went to his village sure enough it was my bike and within two minutes there was a crowd wanting to know why I was stealing this bike. I said to the labourer, call the Police, when they arrived I was treated like a thief until the labourer was able to get a word in. At the Police station I had to prove it was my bike etc they said they knew who had stolen it and that if I wanted to press charges I would have to leave the bike at the station and it may take some time ( what pressure ?)
All this happened a week before I was due to leave Saudi to go home to the UK so I signed their release papers in front of their head of Police who said to me , you should not leave your bike where people can see it, so I said, I suppose your car is invisible.
I was lucky to get my bike back and had the satisfaction of knowing that who ever stole it, fell off it, by the evidence of scratches all down one side.
There is a second hand bike market here that I know so if you want to send me details of your bikes I will keep an eye open for them.
Cheers
Ian
