CB1000R stolen in Peckham last night

Just read this on the CB1000R forum, said I’d post it on LB in case the bike gets dumped somewhere.

Be careful this week everyone, I avoided the area last night as I was worried that this sort of thing would happen.

That was me and my bike.

Take care people.

Oh God, so sorry to hear dude :frowning:

'kin hell Burty - glad you’re OK.

What time did that happen at?

Bl00dy Hell :frowning:
Sorry to hear that and definitely glad you’re ok

Jesus man, that’s awful, but thankfully you’re okay! It could have been a lot worse! I hope it’s covered for theft?

You take care too. Sorry to hear this.

I quote again “I got caught up in the rioting last night heading home from work. Had been told Lewisham was closed, figured Peckham is normally Ok”

Since when has Peckham been ok? LOL

Sorry to hear about your bike dude. But peckham is not a place to be heading when there are riots on…

Peace

surely you jest?

Hindsight is certainly the best form of forward planning. It would have been sensible to have headed out over the river but it didn’t occurr to me at the time.

I’m comprehensive but the insurance underwriters made comment that they keys were in it!!

I also had a an accident claim in Feb this year (also not my fault), so fully expect the insurance to crucify me.

bloody hell mate, 10 plate cb1000r is a stunning bike… feel very very sorry for you. Glad you are ok and not hurt but still you have the right to feel very sorry for yourself. Good luck with insurance etc. Any pictures of the bike incase it is seen?

Please tell me that they’re not going to try and get out of a claim because you got yanked off your bike and were not able to pull the keys out first… Surely they cannot try that technicality???

there is a big big difference between being hijacked, and being negligent (leaving keys in and walking away from a parked bike etc)

doubt that they can try that one but is the insurance covered for civil unrest? it’s in the same league as “acts of god” :angry::crying:

VERY SORRY TO HEAR THIS. I am gutted for you, really gutted.

The whole thing is just making me absolutely sick right now.

(Oh and Peckham is normally okay - I used to ride through it twice a day on my way to work and back and have friends there, you were not to know that would happen to you)

It just seems to be getting worse and more destructive by the minute.

this just popped up on MCN face book .

Bike-jacked in riot

Sory to hear about ya bike m8 :frowning:

Can’t believe the insurer wants to review this case. Stop dissing Peckham and the rest of SE London peeps. It’s where I live and these are special circumstances :angry: It’s happening all over London!

Sorry to hear about this Burty but glad that you are ok :slight_smile:

so if ur car-jacked, do thay not pay out for that either ?

( sorry m8, ur keys were in it ) , idiots , its been stolen , just because u happened to be riding it at the time, shouldn’t mater :angry:

anyway, glad Ur ok, and never got hurt .

I’m hoping that the comment that the case to be reviewed is just a matter of process.

That’s pretty accurate.

I had a decent chat earlier with Steve Farrell. Someone from Therevcounter put us in touch.
