Great news for the two guys!
They had a phone call from the police at Leighton Buzzard, they found the stolen van and when they opened it
two Gixxers were still inside.
Lock damage and Minor scratches and number plates missing!
CCTV was checked and get this 1min.2 sec it took from when the van pulled up until the scrotes drove away!
The Night watch man went to the loo !!!!!!!!!!!!!
well draw your own conclusions lol
anyway they will be reunited tomorrow with their bikes

lucky or what

Lucky indeed - and good news, too. Great stuff, glad to hear it!

That is fantastic news. Something you don't hear very often.

The security guard sounds like the inside man though....

Very, very lucky to get their bikes back, but great news nonetheless. Like you say, it's not often you hear that. Although.....

.....a mate of mine had his WR250 & gsxr750 stolen (+ all his bike kit & keys) about 4 weeks ago. The WR was found dumped further up the road, but he thought he'd lost the gsxr for good. Then another mate saw his gsxr parked up with different No. plates on (identifiable from some old crash damage) a couple of weeks after it was nicked. Stroke of luck, he thought so he called the police, but the police said they couldn't do anything about it because the No. plates were different. WTF?!! Anyway, my mate got his spare keys & went to collect the bike himself. Another result for the statistics, but just lucky really.

Name and shame the hotel,let's see how long the night guard is in the loo for when 100+ bikers turn up

I think he already did in the first post??

I'm amazed they would not see number plates with the frame numbers to see they did not match when checking big brothers computer.
At least he did not get nicked for stealing it back, that would be a major insult.
