My CB500 was stolen last night from my driveway.



I live in the west london area... The bike is loud as **** and quite recognisable I think...


Please let me know if you see/hear anything.


Dave

 

that sucks man, will keep an eye out

 

Keeping an eye out aswell.
What was the reg?

I know the bike thieves that float about in this area always seem to be riding black CB500's.

 

Reg is P277 PPV

 

Ok Dave, will keep a keen eye about locally.
Anything distinctive on the bike?

 

Stainless fuel exhaust, pro tapers, no honda stickers or anything on it.

 

Cool.

Incase anyone else see's em.

The guys that usually ride the stolen CB's around here are two's up.
Black Arai with a a black visor. Wears a black schott jacket, has a matey on the back usually wearing an old orange-y helmet.

 

Also has Hagons on the rear.

 

yeah ill keep an eye out, and thanks for that info csl.

 

******* retards i would keep an eye out but dont think i would see it....

how are you getting to work?

 

They usually hit up the bike shops.
But keep it peeled.

 

At the moment, I'm not getting to work.

But I'll have to get something to go to work on soon.

 

The CB is back in my hands, albeit in a bit of a state.

What's needed?

Ignition barrel
Petrol Cap
Exhaust
Battery
Clocks

I think I might be able to get it all back together for about £200, wont bother claiming on the insurance... I'd rather keep my no claims bonus.

Pics from the pound (before I paid the £150 to get it out)






Not quite sure what whoever took it had in mind once they nicked the exhaust off it... They've jammed a screwdriver in the ignition and petrol cap and got nowhere.. Seems like they just did it for fun.

 

******* least you got it back cant believe you have to pay to get ur own bike out the pound after having it stolen

 

TBH Dave, whoever stole it probs tried to get her running. Failed, ditched it in the hedge. Then someone else saw it dumped and took the exhaust off. They havent even taken the link pipe lol

 

It took me a while to get it running... Had it hooked up to a car and checked a load of the wires and main fuse box... but forgot to check the starter solenoid fuse which was blown. I guess they didn't take the battery out too carefully... Hopefully one of the ***** got a nice shock.

 

glad to see ya got ya bike back mate. time to turn it into a stunter.

 

Josh, has that exhaust I sent you arrived yet?

 

yea but no link pipe wtf

 

Sorry to hear about it getting nicked! But the original pic of it looks nice. I might have to do mine up like that.

If i saw this thread yesterday I could have given you a scorpion silencer, but gave it away yday.
