Bonneville America Forums Forums Off Topic Discussion Forums Lounge GINA's Bike stolen UK

Just to let everyone know to keep their eyes peeled Ginas bike has been stolen from Bristol outside her house.

Registration WX56 FZF
This ia a spoked wheel twin disc america (not many around)It also has a flamed tank, but the mudguard is standard....

Please keep your eyes peeled for it

Ouch, that bites! Had my '67 Bonnie stolen back in '71. Lucily, me and a couple of mates (and a baseball bat) came across it 2 days later.

Hope you have the same luck.

thats a real bummer, hope it turns up for her.

At least the thieves have good taste in bikes... let's hope they meet someone with good taste in baseball bats.

Bike thieves are scum.
Hope it gets recovered intact.
But watch out for any bits on auction sites as well.

Man, that is so unfair! Why O' Why didn't they take my bike?!?
Someone stealing my Star is about the only way I could get rid
of it at this point.

This will be one hard bike to sell even if they break it down. Not many folk will have the knowledge about any mods to our bikes apart from people like ourselves.

Ray any chance of a few PMs to the Brits to adviose of any wee touches that would help us ID any speciality parts that Gina may have added. That way if any parts turn up locally we may be able to help out. Its not something that we should post as some of these low lifes do have computers albeit stolen.

Ray if she can get out details do it by PM if possible I do know of cases where forums are monitored by thieving ba st ar ds and I make no apology for this sentiment. If this is against AUP so be it hanging is too good for these vermin.

Oh man, that is a major bummer. I hope the cops bag the scum and return the bike in one piece.

hiya all....

Devistated doesn't describe how I feel. I've spent most of the morning trying not to cry.

I'm on my pda at the mo, so pm'ing people is very long winded. I'll pm later at a computer.

Gina, so sorry to hear the scumbags took your ride. Suprised they manager to get it started Hope it gets found without too much damage. I'll keep my eyes peeled at any shows I get too.

Gina- Which one was it?

Very sorry to hear that Gina, hope you get it back soon in one piece.

That's really bad news. Hope you retrieve it soon, Gina.

Farging iceholes. I hope your ride is rapidly recovered and in mint condition Gina.

Stinkin nasty buggers. Sorry to hear of this. Hope the bike is found and the responsible party goes behind bars for a long long time.

That really s ucks! I had an enduro stolen when I was a kid so I know the feeling. If the cops there are like here you probably won't get it back through them. Hope a friend sees it before it gets parted.

Where I live, they used to hang people for stealing horses. Same should apply to mechanical horses.

Unlucky Gina,
will keep my eyes peeled for you,
hope she gets back soon
Cheers
Chris

she is a he.., he has quirks that only a bloke would have!!!

It was the 06 that's gone. if it'd been the 03, I'd be suicidal not just really upset.

Real bad news. no words can help, just hope you're lucky and get it back in the same shape it went in .

Man, that sucks. Hope you get your bike back in one piece real quick Gina.

Sorry to hear of you gettin' ripped off, Gina. That's ALWAYS a bummer. TWICE, back a few decades ago, I had this happen to me.

But hey, IF you get any leads as to the lowlife or lowlifes who might've done this, I NOW know of a dude who I hear can wield a pretty mean hammer on that little island o' yours over there, and who might just be up to "takin' care o' bidness" for ya on your behalf!!!

(and lucky YOU....the dude I'm speakin' of here just HAPPENS to be a fellow member of BA.com, and so gettin' hold of him SHOULD be a friggin' SNAP for ya!!!)

May all bike thieves die a slow death.

Thats tough Gina.Had a scooter stolen last year which really ****** us off.The thieves took the bike from my garage which was only 3metres away from where we were sleeping.Didn't hear a thing.
The only good was if it wasn't for that theft I wouldn't have my Trumpy now.
Hope you get it back.

Sorry to hear about your bike Gina,hope someone spots it.
Ferkin thievin Ba$t@rds. Should have their thumbs cut off that would stop them.

there is one more detail.... i got him a chrome sprocket cover, 07 style - like not the George Foreman style...

still rather miffed. though the conversation is moving towards what to get next....

Sorry to hear about the bike G ,hope he gets back to you soon and in good nick(pardon the pun) too. maybe a few posts on some other Triumph forums will help get some more eyes keeping a lookout. bestaluck G.

Sorry to hear your bike got nicked Gina. I can't imagine how you must have felt when you first relised it was gone. I know though when I had a car of mine stolen how it made me feel but I reckon my bike would make me feel unconsolable.

BTW, I got a phone call from the cops about a week later telling me to pick it up. No damage, so hopefully you might get a similar call.

Chin up G even though this may seem hard right now.

Really blows, youre insured for theft I hope.

Gina

Sorry to hear about your bike - I know just how you are feeling.

When my US bike was stolen in 2004, I would have been quite happy to kill the scum that took it, I even asked the cop who handled the theft if it could be classed as "justified homicide". I bloody hate thieves (I think that some middle-east countries have the right solution to that particular problem.)

Got your PM with the details - have you got a picture that you can send to all so that can go on the wall at shops etc?

Also, if your are a MAG member, let them know the details as they list stolen bikes in their newsletter.

Keep your fingers crossed that you get it back.
