Give us here all the details you can mate, everything you can think of? Any distinguishing features?

Also, have a look about any bike shops to see if they've been offered it, keep an eye on Ebay and also in the back of TBM?

Got any gypo's round your way at the moment by any chance?

Nothing really distincitve apart from the DEP nickel chrome finish pipe and the fact that it had Pirelli MT60 tyres fitted (not very good for off road work)
Reg No is J460 FVG
Frame Num MD241210568

The chain was also totally knackered (rusty) as I was just about to fit a new chain/sprocket set.

Well I got the old girl back last (Thur) night, stolen by the local chav contingent (I know who they are),, bloke up the road saw em trying to start it then they decided to dump it in some bushes, he called the cops, meanwhile another local guy saw them as well and came up to my house and we shot down there to find the bike laying in the bushes, chavs had legged it by then, but I got a good description of em, law arrived after all the fun and presented me with my bike back.
First look at the bike revealed that they have removed the indicators, numberplate and rear light lens ??, they have also severed the wiring harness and the handlebar control wires, bloody idiots they had no chance of getting it going !, so it looks like I will be doing a bit of re-wiring over the next few weeks …….
