My 2002 silver Fox eye was stolen last night from shepton mallet Somerset. Please keep an look out. Ta
Edit. Sorry for the rash post, I have found it thank foc! Some scroutes had broke the steering lock n wheeled it away, dunno if they tried to put it in a van but it was dropped on its side across a pavement. Maybe just kids unable to pick it back up?

Methinks it is time for a wheel lock and alarm. :eek
Glad you got it back
Do you have to keep the bike outside?-If so how about a chain & ground anchor. these "amateur" scrotes can still cause a lot of inconvenience/damage. Glad you got it back.
The sad thing is I do have a ground anchor and chain, that it's normally locked to. Unfortunately last night I didn't use it cos I left my keys at work n couldn't find the spare..... I sadly thought oh well it won't hurt for one night..... How wrong was I!!

Good to hear you've found it anyway.

Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike

No nor did I, I'm only gonna need one of the three I just ordered from tor!
Sad you had the bike stolen ... lucky you got it back .... lots of guys never do :'(
The way I read things ... a Spare Key is of no use whatsoever if you can't find it ... even less use if it is a home ... and you are miles away.
Carry the spare key(s) on a lanyard ... ideally along with your Blood Group and general contact 'in the event of' details on a dog tag. Never ride the bike without it. Simples 8)
I was very lucky to find it so soon and to have no attempt at hot wiring. But I can't describe the gut wrenching feeling of opening the curtains and seeing my bike missing!!!
For me now security is as paramount as my protective gear, ATGATT...... I will never think it will be OK just this once again.
Sods law is a bitch
