Did you read the story? It's a 1975 Honda, so cannot even be a Fireblade!

My brother had his motorbike stolen and torched in the Southampton area. Seems to be a spate of these happening.

The police basically know who was involved but have been unable to gather anything more than circumstantial evidence so haven't been able to make any arrests.

Hopefully they'll get caught out soon.

I think it best that threats are kept out of conversations on here, don't you? Even secondhand ones.

There's been more than three to my knowledge. However, that seems moot given I made no claim to 'crime wave'. I was simply noting that there's been a run of these crimes in the local area recently.

But feel free to continue being a dick to complete strangers on the Internet if it makes you feel better.

when my sons bike was stolen, we were told of 4 others within a couple of days and heard there were more taken in the millbrook area the following week, they are not always reported in the newspaper.
