escie Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Had my dtr stolen from my girlfriends after leaving it in a locked parking zone over night. They came lifted over fence and pushed in half a mile through a field to steal it :(. was just going to nip home at about 10:30 instead i went and locked up and stayed! its in the middle of no where. im very sad was my first bike (or motor vehicle for that matter) and i know i wont find one like it again. i bought it for 950 and it was a wreck. fixed it up mint only just really got it running perfect after purchasing at the end of january. im round the midlands DY postcode area. Bike reg WX51 LXN with dep pipe otherwise just standard black. i know its lost though =[. another query any advice on insurance claim would be much appreciated. i think its value was far more than i paid for it etc Thanks alot a very sad Samuel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barkwindjammer Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Thats real sh1t news-no wonder your gutted m8, you might as well resign yourself to never seeing it again-unless plod confiscates it off the low life who stole it riding round an estate somewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vez Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Sorry to hear escie, this country is full of lowlife scum it seems. Just been through the same back in march so i feel your pain. On the insurance issue, its good you over insured it though. Tbh i can't see it being to hard to find a replacement DTR, but with the time of year you will be paying top price unless you are lucky. Try biketrader , preloved and piston heads websites. You should find an estimate price for your bike anyway to stop the insurance company trying to rip you off and while your at it search for your next DT. Keep a list of bikes you see of similar mileage and age as your previous bike to throw at the insurance company should they take the proverbial. Good luck Vez.
