Stolen Black Moto Guzzi V50

[Caruso]

A picture of my cherished Moto Guzzi V50

and of the same spot this morning.

It vanished overnight so all I have left is the keys, V5 and oily patch on the drive.

Here's a video of it in action note the unusual black exhaust and sound - Reg TMM126Y - in case anyone comes across it please pm me.

You have my sympathy, shes pretty distinctive , I hope it turns up for you.

[Caruso]

I bought it for £1500, but spent more than that on it getting it running really well.

Not sure if it was opportunists or a professional job. They left the other bike that was parked next to it.

Sorry for your loss, that’s a real pisser. As TTN said, seems an odd choice of bike for the average thief so maybe it will turn up.

[A500leroy]

what security was on it? did they chop through chains and things?

Put it on the FB guzzi page for you, hope you get it back

That's really bad news OP, you have my sympathies. Hopefully the thief will get ball cancer and it will all balance out.

not worth a lot but popular cafe racer/brat/tracker base so will probably be chopped about and given a "new" identity...

[Caruso]

It's been found by a member of the public who discovered it abandoned and reported it. It's currently languishing in a compound with the ignition switch in bits but otherwise ok apparently. A happy ending hopefully - I still haven't seen it yet.

I stand corrected re: the average low IQ oik!

[Mr Dendrite]

That’s good to hear, hope it’s an easy repair to get it up and running, oh and it gets a nice welcome home pressie of an even bigger chain and lock to prevent it catching a second dose of the Scroates!
