Nice, a GT Performer in yellow; would be cool if it's someone on here that had it stolen so that they can get it back :daumenhoch:
-
nice bike!
-
12 looks alright too.
-
What do they do with them if they don't get claimed?
-
Some forces sell stuff on through bumble bee auction site
Had a bargain or two off there myself
Hopefully the owner will see this and get it back
-
how come the GT is posed like it's being put in for BOTM? (i.e. in a garden, propped up on invisible pint glass?)
I think the whole thing is a con & they're just trying to lure you in and get your details - don't fall for it or they'll be in your shed next :D

22 and 25 look like most of my builds :D

My guess is that some of the pics have been given to the police by the owners of the bikes when they got nicked, to help ID them if they were recovered. You can sort of tell which bikes the rozzers have as they have a background that looks like a grotty garage - the others have various different backgrounds. :-\

but if that's the case.. then the owners would have had their bikes returned and there would be no need to put out an appeal to find the owners..?

;D I made that bit up
was strange seeing that pic though, maybe the guy taking the pic is a Radster
-
:LolLolLolLol:
I was thinking, how's that work, pukka police tel number etc
-
i make him right though kev, why would all the other pics be taken in a dingy garage but that one's all shiney in the well kept garden?
i don't get it?
Something's not right there is it?
-
thought id seen the piccy before and i have , its on here in the museum , page 2 under GT , username nosnod
-
There's a couple of pics which are def taken by the owners not :police:
Glass half full I thought perhaps those were owners whose contract details had changed etc
If it was a 08.... Type number yeah def sus.
as Toyah once said "its a mystery"
-
thought id seen the piccy before and i have , its on here in the museum , page 2 under GT , username nosnod

I see what you mean. :daumenhoch: A lot of bikes have been stolen from the area but not every one has been recovered. The recovered ones are the ones in the grotty garage and the unrecovered ones are the BOTM GT, the bike on the train, the bike at the bottom of someone's staircase etc.
That's my take it on it anyway. :D
-
Forgot all about these auction. I'm from glos and normaly the old bill hold auctions for any bikes that don't get claimed.

Mmmm very interesting.
The GT Performer (pic 18) is definitely my bike and the picture that I took of it many years ago in the garden but it is definitely not stolen as it is safely tucked away :daumenhoch: (although I did go double check ;D )
Very strange :shocked:
