But luckily it was only the Honda.
I've only been using it once a week to get the shopping which is where it was before it wasn't.
Oh well, it was time to wake the big one up anyway.

Although it may not have been your top ride that went, it's still YOUR ride that some lowlife deprived you of and has now bumped up your insurance because they cant be bothered to work for what they want.
They deserve to die of AIDS, ebola, venereal disease, hanging, dis-membering.
please add any other painful demise i may have forgotten

Yep - even if the bike itself is not the greatest loss (though I bet you are playing it down somewhat), it will inevitably bring hassles of sorting it all out and dealing with insurers etc.
Hope it is as pain-free as possible

It's mildly annoying but I think I'm with a decent broker, got protected no claims and excess and they're selling now for more or less what I gave for it.
It was a pleasant bike to bimble about on but not the sort of thing to get under your skin, I'd be murderous if someone fucked about with the Falco.
My hat and gloves were in the luggage but the hat was five years old and pretty beat up and the gloves were older and worse so they were about due.

Well it's a small town, I have a good description of them and their vehicle. Apparently there has been a spate of lawlessness. Sundry slightly dubious people are watching. These things have a way of working themselves out.

I have many hats...
I've been out of the loop a bit due to work introducing a new computer system and buggering everything backwards.
Drop me a line you old spunkbucket.

Bad luck John. Hope it gets sorted and your insurers cough up accordingly.

Lets hope for karma, or worse

I seconf fb's comments, and am well impressed with your zen-like level of calm. Even if it was an old nail, I'd still be sick.
