Guys last night some low life oxygen thieving fu*k heads broke into my shed and helped them selves to my wife's bike and took the lay down.the bike was a 2006 Honda CRF230l rego qlt50 vin:jh22md37u69k100001 eng:md37e5007532
This bike is insured so hopefully that we'll get another one.

Wait, what?!?! Man....that bites.
This is harsh, but 9 times out of 10 its someone who knows you and knows what you own....usualy its targeted and not random. If not, the next person on the list is someone who lives close...in your street...and sees the stuff at your house, or on the ute/trailer.
I hope they try to ride it, put their feet down, and run themselves the fu*k over!
Cu*ts.

You forgot the local pub.

Might be worth a wanted ad (for a trike in general, not your specific trike) on gumtree and the Newcastle herald too.

Stealing the laydown was the worst thing they could do. That will bring them unstuck . It's not worth parting, they won't be able to ride it anywhere and no one in their right mind would buy it. It's red hot.

When my house was broken in to they left my blue trike for that exact reason.

I reckon it was a friend of a neighbour or someone who had seen you had bikes.

I noticed your other ad on gumtree for the Suzuki . Did you get any people coming over?

If i remember correctly too, both the crf and laydown could be seen in the pics on gumtree. Id take a walk up the street too and have a look around the parks, tracks,dirt and look for wheel tracks. They would have been pushed up the street and loaded up.
It wasnt at stockton yesterday as i was up there riding all day.

Its amazing how much people dont see or care these days though as my bmx was stolen on a main road in peak hour traffic. It was locked through the bars to a fence. I came back from shopping and there was only a set of bars left. BROAD DAYLIGHT! MAIN ROAD!

Consider doing a door knock too or a letterbox drop of fliers with pics/details etc.

Thats bad news brother, sorry to hear what has happened.


Not real bright to steal the lay-down considering its a one off, and trikes are pretty rare themselves these days. Its bound to comes to the surface again. I keep my eyes peeled this side of the country.


Even more concerning that you think you know who it is.
