Nowt to directly do with RS, but from Twitter:
A forum pal pushed off his bike in Peckham, bike stolen. Red CB1000R, KX10 WDC
If anyone sees it let the Police know and/or @RichWoolgar on twitter..

At least he wasn't hurt. I guess it falls just short of a civil war exclusion on his insurance.

In spite of the cost of living, it's still popular.

Shit, I saw Saira posted on Fb that a forum friend had his bike nicked, didn't know it was Burty.

Doubt he'll get it back and will it even be insured? A lot of insurance excludes civil disorder.

I don't know Burty but very sorry to hear this.
Hope he's not doubly affected through insurance small-print.

Burty was an RS stalwart of old. Still holds an account here but dont know if he still looks in.

Never mind civil war being used as an excuse not to pay out, the insurance company were said to be 'reviewing' the case because... the keys were in the ignition when it was taken
