Worst feeling ever, Same happened to my 04re, they tried burning it out but luckily they done a **** job and it was recovered. I paid 250 in the end to get it back. I might have some re parts still from when i stripped mine, let me know what ya need and ill sort you out, mates rates or just postage :)

The thieves probably live right near you. If you keep seeing a neighbour with new bikes / riding them around the area illegally, chances are, it was them or their friends that nicked it.

Going to need quite a bit of work. It breaks me to see that it really does. Just you're stood there. Looking st your pride and joy whilst the scum that did that is probably having a whale of a time on somebody elses pride. Absolute bastards!
Lol I'm not that distraught about it tbh. They never got it started hahaha. Best £25 I spent on that alarm! Funny thing is that they filled it with petrol too cos it was pretty empty because they obv thought that's why it wasn't starting lol. Anyway, it's not that bad, new started switch, new ignition unit, few new plastics and tada! Just needs a good clean. I'll put a dep on it anyways so...
All they did was remove the ignition unit to try and Hotwire it...but cos of the immobiliser it wouldn't go. The starter motor goes but it won't start! As soon as I pressed the alarm off it fired up no probs - bit smokey like but that's just excess oil from the old petrol evaporating.
They did a real crap job of trying to light it lol. Everything is all good anyway :)
Lol cheers mate. Only plastics I need are the two rad scoops. I have all the rest. Seat has a burn on it but the unit next to the brewery is a seat re-upholsterer :D :D what cover shall I get? Pink leopard skin?
I'm just glad the engine is perfect. Only rebuilt top end like 400 miles ago... Let it warm up nicely then baaaazoom - revved the nuts off it and it shone through the revs!
