Absolute scunner! >:( >:( >:(
Unlikely to come this far north, but will put the word about in the local Classic Riders Club.
Hope the Police and Insurance can do their bit to get it returned.
Good health, Bill

Shared on 'Twatter' by a friend and he tells me that it has been shared quite a bit, so hopefully there will be a positive outcome.

Good health, Bill

Thanks Michael, & you had shares in that bike thanks to your kindness helping me out with your headlight.
Don't hold out much hope with plod.

That's awful for you.
I have my project bikes insured on a storage policy for just this reason.
Might it be an idea to list the engine number so that if the engine or cases come up on a site we can get back to you?  They obviously won't be able to do anything with the frame apart from grinding the engine number off and re-stamping it.
I'll keep my eyes open on ebay and at autojumbles etc.
Good luck with the insurance etc.
Richard.

 I feel you're pain-I've had a couple of 'bikes stolen over the years and still remember their reg. numbers! I hope you get it back in good shape, best of luck.
