Who said Classic bikes do not get s....
« on: September 30, 2011, 07:55:56 PM »
A Vincent Rapide was stolen in England at the Vincent Owners Club annual rally at Fordingbridge on August 6th. - Registration number PVX 299, engine number F10 AB/1/2293, frame number RC 4193, was first registered in 1950 although made in 1949.  Be aware of any parts offered for sale that may have come from this Vincent.

Problem with the Classic bike boom is increased risk of theft.. there must be many more cases as the unscrupulous ones get wind of increasingly astronomical values of machines...



Cheers

Good reason to be fully insured.
Which this one was, apparently.

And if there were no claims on insurers, they'd be rich rich rich.
Or premiums would come down...

I doubt it's in bits and also doubt it's still in the UK.
In the South we get vans of Eastern Europeans opportunistic "scrap hunting" several times a day. So far, they taken kids' walking aids, garden swings and even Portsmouth's bronze WW2 dead scrolls from a memorial.

Gotta love that EU.... >:(
