How they stole my Ducati Panigale in Amsterdam.

Just a warning for all you bikers that do not have trackers! I went to Amsterdam for about three nights on the last night somebody tried to steal my bike, well practically they did get the bike, they moved the bike about a mile away and covered it up and put a chain on it so it could not be found! I only received it as I had a road angel tracker and they could tell me and the police where the bike was, the rumour is they do that just to check if there is a tracker and then after a week or a couple days they start to strip it or move it somewhere else. We are just lucky they never took my girlfriends bike as she does not have a tracker......

The Netherlands is the only place I have ever had a bike stolen. Still haven't got over it

I don't think I will ever have a bike without road angel thank god for a tracker ;-)

Holland is notorious for bike theft. So so often groups of bikers have headed to here in Germany via a night stopover in Amsterdam. Only to get bikes nicked, one group some years ago had 3 of their 5 bikes dissapear. Allways if going to Ansterdam in particular stay where there is a secure garage or better still sit on the bike.

A phone with GPS tracker is an alternative im told???

it's happened again this time in Faringdon near King's Cross London, same thing after I bought a new yolk they broke the steering lock and pushed it away obviously now I know I need a disk lock, and the police in London are rubbish Road Angel gave up with them after two hours and told me where my bike was after they were telling the police which road bike is being pushed down and they were not interested

And again stolen on Sunday, 8 May 2016 at 6pm from south east London and we covered in an estate nearby, the police got the bike back just as they were taking off the tank and starting to strip it so it's in pretty bad shape but I will try and get it back together before brands Hatch....
If your bike ever get stolen in South East London and you don't have a tracker have a look around this estate,

My bike was found by the entry door to the left the police reckon they were stripping it and ran into the flat when they came,
