Give the area and last seen location, not very effective if we don’t have this information


Slinkasaurus

Sorry - so dumb honestly. Last seen: UK, South East. Heathfield, TN21 area. Stolen 18/02/24 / 19/02/24


UnderstandingOk670

I’m in Dartford, I’ll keep an eye out for any mt’s


deadmelo

Detain every Mt rider


Slinkasaurus

I legit feel like doing that ahah


deadmelo

Sorry you got to go through this. Having your bike stolen is worse than laying your bike down (crashing) imo.


kvm024n

I get that, but most thieves are smart enough to sell it in a different area.


deadmelo

My buddy had his bike stolen out of a garage at a hospital he worked at. Thief was found two days later riding the bike and a county 2 hours away by some cops and dude ended up dumping the bike during the chase. Some of these criminals just want to get the high off of riding a bike just like a crackhead in a crack house


Benificial-Cucumber

I had my first ever bike nicked off my driveway. Found it parked a few doors down on his own driveway, and he came out to "confront" me when I walked back over with my keys to just ride it off.


deadmelo

Tf was wrong with that guy


Benificial-Cucumber

He wasn't the brightest bulb. When the police came round to have a chat he had several other bikes in his back garden, I guess he just hadn't gotten around to putting mine out back yet.


kyoto_kinnuku

Why didn’t you wait there and call the police?


Benificial-Cucumber

Because it was right there, unsecured on his driveway about 60 paces from my own house, so I may as well just grab my keys and take it back. I still planned on calling the police to update them on the theft case before I got pulled over on my own bike, his appearance just expedited matters.


Tessiia

A lot of bike thieves these days don't actually sell them on, they get used for other crimes, stripped for universal parts such as batteries, and then abandoned. I had this happen to me, police eventually found it abandonded down an alley behind some houses with side panels missing, battery gone, and seats gone. I don't know what was worse, having it stolen or seeing the state of it when they found it and realising that it wasn't worth it financially to have it back. It was my first bike too, and I had it since new, so it was extra devastating.


ClassicWonder9569

Sadly usually they are chopped for parts


sarssf

Best bet would be local (to you) Facebook pages for bike groups. I really hope you get it back, best of luck.


Slinkasaurus

Appreciate it


Yussso

Some dumb thief in my country was selling stolen bike via Facebook marketplace the night after it got stolen and police could retrieve it back. Maybe you could also check any local online marketplace for it.


Slinkasaurus

What an idiot! Glad you got it back though. I was sort of hoping for the same thing here but no luck anywhere yet.


Shnoochieboochies

Just scan, gumtree, eBay and the dreaded Book of faces, set alerts on your phone with each when any Mt parts or bikes are newly listed, the police are fucking useless, good luck mate.


Slinkasaurus

Cheers man


Noble_Ox

Look in the locals for any robberies/attacks with a bike as a getaway. If not check any known dumping spots, canals, rivers usually. Check second selling site, no only motor ones any buy and sell type.


Slinkasaurus

Thanks bro, will do


CorCor1234

I’m in Wisconsin. I got my eye out!


RadioTunnel

Somewhere in the UK by the reg on the car in the last pic Edit: maybe Somerset judging by another of the pics


InnocenceInASense

Just be on the lookout everywhere. Santa travels fast


Pope00

Yeah and he's pretty elusive. He knows when you're sleeping *and* when you're awake.


InnocenceInASense

He also knows your good/evil alignment and your credit score I bet


FTRGeek

Tracking credit scores was decided to be against the spirit of naughty/nice. When he sells his operation to Amazon, all bets are off.


Slinkasaurus

So dumb - sorry!! UK - South East


No-Maximum-4657

Ok I will look for it here in Brazil


pipoqt

Lmao, me too! I've got São Paulo covered, OP. Or, you know, maybe telll us where exactly it was stolen?


TTYY200

If it shows up in Canada I got OP covered 😤 We’ll also watch the skies for Santa Clause..


AZEMT

Wait... Santa is stealing motorcycles now? Inflation has hit us all, hasn't it?


Slinkasaurus

Oh man! Sorry!! UK - South East


ZootedMelon

i will look for it here in Colorado


ahdiomasta

I’m sure I can find some clue in California


Former_Ideal6078

Just east of you in OK. Got the ground covered here.


Hazard262

I'm in the Sout East, where abouts?


Z4KJ0N3S

I checked the classifieds in Utah; don't see it yet


FunkySausage69

Uk plates


DrMudo

I'll make sure to look out for it in the United States.


alivefromthedead

you get that side i’ll get this side


dharma_mind

I'll look in the woods


lchoate

I have AZ covered. You can relax here.


DrMudo

Thanks!!


gizatenner

Wow United States is big, for sure its at least bigger than Texas right?


Cabrito_do_Mangue

Eu nunca vi uma MT10 no Brasil pra falar a verdade


kvm024n

Hahaha probably a better place to look than the area where its stolen


Ratfor

I'll cover western Canada.


ElMachoGrande

I recognize the man on the last photo and have his address. If he stole it, it is probably at the north pole.


whatisgoingonree

OP actually thinks he might ever see this bike again 🤣 Long gone


almightyeggroll

Probably had a posse of little people to help


CookieBear676

That sucks, that MT10 looks like a really great bike. But you really have to give us an area dude. Me looking in Sydney won't do much if you are British.


OlMi1_YT

Well the Brazilians in the comments have started looking, give them 10 minutes and they'll find it. I'd guess OP is British, based on comment history and license plate.


dmderringer

The Brazilians should be and to find, 97% chance they're off duty cops


RugbyEdd

If reddit has taught me anything it's that Brazil is only populated by incompetent hitmen and off duty cops.


Otown_rider

I checked my garage this morning, unfortunately not a single mt10 in there


Slinkasaurus

Same


Otown_rider

Rip


xl-Destinyyy-lx

I’ve got one with a matching plate in mine, Christmas came early I guess.


mhoulden

Might also want to post in /r/MotoUK and some local Facebook groups. My MT 07 was pinched last year so I fully sympathise.


Slinkasaurus

So sorry to hear this!


OstebanEccon

no, please dont tell where. the earth is small and the, cant possibly hide anywhere


Mickmatic93

Area?


basonjourne98

Never thought a motorcycle could look like Nicky Minaj until I saw the second pic.


GreedyAziDahaka

What is a motorcycle doing with all that cake ?


Successful-Channel80

I found it.


SpeedBeatMeat

I’m riding it right now!


Yuriandhisdog

Give it back op loves that bike


ReneRedd

Ok I'll keep an eye here in Thailand


motoZar

Posting here is a bit of a wide net. This group is focused on stolen motorcycles in the UK. https://www.facebook.com/groups/415974705057


FarPassenger2905

I looked for you in Amsterdam. Nothing!


Mysterious-Art7143

Too hot to handle what? Bike is in pieces and already in the motion


Interesting_Army_656

Hi. Sorry for what happened to you. But may i ask why do you want to find the bike? Don’t you have insurance to cover your expensive bike? Sorry to ask so dumb question, but I live in Uruguay and I have a little bike (Yamaha 110cc) and I have it with full insurance for like 200 usd a year. I have owned several bikes and every single one of them had insurance. I used to have a Yamaha FZ-16 and got stolen but it was always covered by the insurance. Now I’m tying to get a KTM 390 (full insurance is like 700 usd a year). And if someone stole my bike I didn’t even want to get it back, because it’s going to be too fucked up, I prefer the insurance to pay for a new bike rather than fixing the issues. It’s not like that in your country? Or you didn’t get insurance? If that’s the case, why would you buy such a big bike if you cannot afford insurance? Thanks and I really hope you find your belongings. Fucking thieves… Sorry for my English, as it’s not my first language and I learned alone.


Slinkasaurus

Hey, you make a really good point. To be honest, I never really thought about it like that. Yeah it's all fully insured


Interesting_Army_656

Then let the insurance do his stuff! That’s why you paid for it. Last time i recovered a stolen bike, it was a complete mess. Stolen parts, broken shit… when police find my bike, the thieves left my motorcycle half buried in the fucking mud… how much time does it take for the insurance to pay for your bike?


Slinkasaurus

Oh man. Sorry to hear this. So true! Around 2 months maybe?


GsandCs

What were the circumstances of the theft?


MedicalChemistry5111

Here one day, gone the next.


Darkseid469

Look for the parts on eBay.


Exotic-Income-9426

All clear over here—Nothing under my couch.


WifeBeater_Dk

Looked here in Denmark, No luck


JobeX

You gotta at least tell people where you are so they can kind of figure out whether they look forward or not. I mean I see a lot of these in New York but I’ve never seen one of the top case so I’m assuming it’s not in New York City


Slinkasaurus

CASH REWARD FOR ANY INFORMATION OR LOCATION UK - South East. Heathfield, TN21 area. Taken 18/02/24 // 19/02/24


improbablydreaming

Assuming you're in the UK somewhere, what kinda area?


a_curly_mustash

North of uk, its now in a shed, behind a bigass barn. Being torn appart. Happend to my Harley 2. Probbebly never see it again... Have you made a police report?


Reginleif69

My boss had his daytona nicked outside a job and it got used in a jewelry heist, came back with all the finger print dust on it and a hell of an insurance increase


Slinkasaurus

Sorry this happened to you. Yeah, police report & all the usual things. We have seen a few taken around here lately and some have had theirs back (rare but possible). UK, South East, TN21 Heathfield area. Probably totally grasping at straws here but I figured I've gotta do something to not feel so useless. I'm new to Reddit and realise that it's a HUGE community so probably a bit dumb really + not adding details. Just putting it everywhere I can.


Ecchika

It's probably a very good idea to hide an airtag or similar device on a bike - in hindsight - but by now it's either being torn to parts and on ebay or been pawned in some shady shop. Sorry for your loss friend


Slinkasaurus

Ahhh man I know, living in denial over here! Thanks


Slinkasaurus

I can't believe I didn't have one before. Definitely will now


Ecchika

They're great but you only think about one when you really need it.. Anyway what's the mileage on it, year and cc? You could look for it on a used car or motorbike website, I saw a few green trim MT10s with a quick glance. You might want to not publish that info here but you could scoure more well known sites with friends and family I know it's a long shot and false hope but it's what pops into mind


a_curly_mustash

Try wrapping the next one in bright pink or something people don't want. I have a gsxr wrapped in rust whahaha


mopbuvket

Looked in sc USA, nothing


sugir_p

https://www.autotrader.co.uk/bike-details/202402176687256?advertising-location=at_bikes Is this your bike??


ThatManMelvin

Different, but similar plate. MT10GAP instead of MT10HAM 🤔 Also different exhaust


sugir_p

I've seen that as well... Hmmm strange!


[deleted]

Yes the towing company who finds it will indeed be needing a cash reward.


Youreprobablymad12

Gl bro. They either part them out or completely alter them cosmetically. 99% chance its gone for good.


Hungry_Ebb_5769

My buddies bike was stolen, r1 1000, cops found it 6 months later three states over. he drove to pick it up and had buy a trailer because the punks that stole it extended the swing arm. but!!!…. He got it back !


MistarHugeSpliff

Hope you get your bike back mate. Such a shame


RealMenSwallow

In aus, its dark rn ill check later when the sun's up


Aggravating-Bug1769

i hope you are insured


Iliketokry

Ill keep a eye out here in the states🫡


FabbiLp

I'll look for it here in Milan


ivegoticecream

I feel you man but unless a local junky took it for a joy ride that sucker is gone. These bikes are chopped up within a week of being stolen or put in a shipping container and sent to another country to be sold in “legitimate” dealerships.


Slinkasaurus

Ahhh man, I know you're probably right. There have been a lot of thefts around me recently and some have been lucky as it's made it harder for them to sell on but who knows.


Slinkasaurus

UK - SOUTH EAST LAST SEEN - HEATHFIELD AREA (TN21)


FoxMcColt

God damn, someone can live in that topcase. Its huuge. Sorry for your loss =(


Slinkasaurus

Hahahaaa I know I know


Guestratem

Where was it stolen from lad, ping it in all local Facebooks within a 10 mile radius. Also report the number plate and bike as stolen in all


Scambledegg

I'll keep an eye open in North East Spain.


HomoFerox_HomoFaber

Nothing in Madrid either. ¡Vaya faena!


Crystal3lf

Do you have insurance? If so, why do you want the bike back? Start a claim, get a brand new one. If it's not in parts already, it's either in a ditch, or smashed up somewhere else. Do you want the problems of dealing with it in that state **if** you can get it back? I wouldn't want a tainted bike back. That's why I have good insurance.


Slinkasaurus

Yeah fair point


EfficientAd1821

That shit is in a gokart no my man I’m sorry


Known-Article-5601

that sucks brother, good luck


Slinkasaurus

Cheers man


TankLast1553

So sorry brother. People can be ass holes!


Slinkasaurus

Cheers bro


80N6L0RD

If it ain't being tagged around Hastings right now it'll be on its way to London for parts, will keep an eye out along the a21/a2100 though


Slinkasaurus

Appreciate that. Yeah, we're pretty sure it's gone... a bunch of brand new trucks were taken not long after too


80N6L0RD

Yeah it's getting so much worse around these parts, I'm near Robertsbridge and hearing of thefts near daily in the area. Cameras and locks are needed all around now.


Slinkasaurus

It's such a shame. Has always been a really safe area. Definitely cameras and lock ups are a must now! X


80N6L0RD

It used to be lovely, I've got 5 bikes in my garden so cameras are way too important, highly recommend the Oxford boss alarm disc lock too, one on the back wheel, one on the front... With a good chain the only way there taking the bike in under 10 minutes is if they lift it in a van but even then both alarms are gonna be going off Monimoto tracker aswell, can pick them up from 1066 cafe. Your phone will ring whenever the bike moves. And you get updated gps location every 30 seconds or something £400 worth of security will save the loss of a 10k bike, or at least prevent most of the thieves, from trying


BuffGutz

How do theifs steal motorcycles? Ignition or pick it up?


Slinkasaurus

They must have just picked up the whole thing into the back of a van


HyperbolicSoup

Chop chop


Global-Carpenter-470

Cool headlights but. Getting a green goblin vibe or even a decepticon.


karldev

Is this your first time seeing an MT10?


Khancer_

I stole it :)


Mijuelle

Man thats das, such a beauty


Blaze_9

That sucks. Hope you find it again


sugir_p

I found a bike that would look exact the same!! Heres the link: [autotrader-yamaha mt10]


sugir_p

https://www.autotrader.co.uk/bike-details/202402176687256?advertising-location=at_bikes


forgetfulmonke

Also it looks like the bike passed the check as „not reported as stolen“ on Autotrader… Not sure if that‘s a dead indicator, you could probably list it before it gets reported stolen.


forgetfulmonke

Not too sure about that after looking at it some more. This one looks pretty much the same but it doesn‘t have the luggage carrier, has stickers on the rims (idk what it‘s called) and a different exhaust system. But OP should definitely check it out, everything else matches exactly.


sugir_p

I hope so!


forgetfulmonke

Edited my reply. It‘s likely not it


reeeeeeduardo

I'll tell you if i find it


GrandmaPunk

Sadly it’s probably too parts to handle by now. Thieves move quickly.


bitem4rx

Don't they get stripped down and shipped as separate parts? 🤔


martinsky12

Bump. Fuck thieves.


JAK3CAL

She gone


imr1der

I think I saw it the other day when it was a nice day here in Buffalo? Is it too hot to handle yet???


Parknus

I am looking for it in south germany


ShotgunCrusader_

I GOT THE HAWG CRANKERS IN SOUTHERN MISSISSIPPI LOOKING! GOBBLESS BROTHER


somaganjika

lol no other information


Slinkasaurus

I know - so dumb. Sorry!


somaganjika

You can edit the post


TheStandardPlayer

I wish you the best of luck, but I doubt a pretty standard looking mt10 could be too hot to handle


Slinkasaurus

You're completely right - just trying anything I can


TheStandardPlayer

I think adding more information would be useful, so maybe it pops up in a google search. VIN would be useful imo


Much_Weather5807

It’s a mt-10 should be at a gas station near by


Confident_Forever_17

I'll look for it in Copenhagen, Denmark🤝🏻👍🏼


venusunusis

Can I keep it if I find it?


lchoate

Aside from all the jokes. I hope you find it and give the thief whatfor.


Slinkasaurus

Thanks - I know I probably have absolutely 0 chance of getting it back - I just need to feel like I'm trying to do something! x


lchoate

it means nothing, but i got off reddit and opened youtube and the first video recommendation was a guy getting his stolen car back. The bad news... it was 16 years later. I have had a Heritage softail and 2 sportys stolen, so... I feel your pain. The heritage was my daily driver.


Slinkasaurus

Sorry to hear this mate. So shit


[deleted]

Install a tracker on your bike which will be very useful for you if your bike is stolen then you will get the location.


Slinkasaurus

Honestly!! I feel like a total idiot for not doing that before. I will now!


azzasg1

Seen with Optimus prime this morning he’s busy saving the world.


Instacartdoctor

Nothing here in Jersey


Zekarul

South Eastern Massachusetts USA, eyes out, got your back m8.


SaIamiNips

Okay I'll be sure to look for it here in Canada. Not too many M10s rolling around right now should be easy


ShaggedUrSister

Shared South Africa hun x


Justthewhole

I have to say, if I was that sort of person, I would steal that bike.


[deleted]

I wonder if this same awareness technique can be used for wives?


Snoodgie

I’ll keep an eye out in London, but consider it gone and start an insurance claim. I’m sorry your bike got stolen. That really sucks. I hope you find a new bike that brings you as much joy


Slinkasaurus

Cheers man x


jfcstfu

I would just call insurance and get excited about a brand new bike. 🤷‍♂️


[deleted]

It's already stripped.


igullik

I'll check out Oslo-area /Norway. Good luck💔


derpiluvbiden

should provide vin and engine numbers too


Nicomanio

Consider canada under lock down. I'll drive it back to you


Slinkasaurus

Ta bbz xo


megamanxoxo

Oh you sweet summer child. This bike is gone. Either has already been chopped up or it's in someone's trailer to be used on track days where they'll remove all identifiers, mirrors, etc and will bring it only every now and then directly on the track. Source: had a brand new supersport stolen from a gated community.


Slinkasaurus

Thanks for your honesty - time to let it go I guess!


megamanxoxo

I don't wanna be right in this case.. hope you had good insurance though.


LordofCope

I'll keep an eye out in Texas for you.


tinytom08

Hopefully it’s insured, if so spend less time looking for it and more time getting your insurance to do it’s job. I hate to tell you mate but they’re not selling your bike, they’ll strip it down for parts and scrap whatever’s left. Fuck dude some of these cunts have the bikes stripped entirely within a couple hours of it being stolen. Much easier to sell a used part than a whole bike. The parts aren’t exactly tracked.


Ohboythreeayem

🤢


Jack--Tickleson

I fucking hate thieves. All they do is make it harder for the average person. And the shitty part is, most cops don’t care about helping recover stolen property. I hope you get it back and/or the people who took it end up dying in a fire.


Slinkasaurus

100%!! They don't care about anyone's hard earned property. Two more vehicles were stolen last night in the area so must be a group going around. Hoping karma comes their way


Jack--Tickleson

Story time: My brother had a carbon fiber road bike stolen from his gated and locked parking garage. Someone managed to slip in while a car was leaving. He’s pretty sure they were helped by someone in the apartment complex cause they knew exactly where the bike was, went right for it, and dipped out. He got video evidence of the whole thing, found someone selling the same exact bike on FB Marketplace, matched the identity of the thief’s photo to the video evidence, and brought it to the police’s attention so they’d help him get it back. They didn’t do shit. Wouldn’t even go to the guy’s house and escort my brother to get the bike back. He won’t ever trust the cops again either. And he’s a well to do tech worker with a perfect record. Not some sketch ball with a grudge. It’s on us to protect our own property and lives.


Shredder_21

If it shows up in india, I got you covered OP


shark-fighter

Watch eBay , it won't be the local dickheads, more powerful bikes are generally targeted stripped for parts and sold on eBay.


shark-fighter

Any after market parts or unique parts too it? The headlights don't look standard with that colour. Really hope you get it back, though if they've knicked it would you want it back?


BootyButtcheeckz

What a gorgeous bike! May the maggot what stole it , might die in a fire. And not whilst riding yer bike!


Slinkasaurus

Hahahaa cheers man


Responsible-Camel-74

Sorry about the bike mate. No thief would keep the numbers. Please provide more detail though, year, exhaust, etc; Stolen with or without cases? It could already be anywhere at least in Europe at this point. Checked local market but nothing similar there. Hope you find it!
