I saw this on facebook. A picture is always worth much more than a description...

For those who know their bikes well, it's a '97 Thundercat with an aftermarket fairing kit, styled like in the Yamaha 50th GP livery

Very similar to this:

Good luck finding her. I own a '97 Thundercat myself as well as an 02 VFR800

Well, this is embarrasing!

it seems someone else has had a Thundercat stolen! I do apologise smile

I've messaged a couple of the guys in and around the area and they'll keep an eye out for you.

No, classed as dangerous if you are hit by a bike, could split you in two. Cheers

No ,no criminals caught but nice to have it back and not lose his no claims bonus

semi-good result at the end of the day... i suppose i'd rather have a lost vehicle back and no crims caught than crims caught and no vehicle and therefore have to go through insurance.

Great news. However I wouldnt trust the left over fuel. If its got sugar in it they could have the last laugh wink

or, if you rob a bike to go joy riding, dont put sugar or water in the tank as it will not work and be a waste of time robbing the bike.
