  5. update from police is no further news and the tracker unit is back from forensics and that has come back clean. The unit is ready for me to collect and it is like new no scuffs or damage what so ever. Will keep you all posted on how things progress from here , thank you for all the coms and feedback
  6. Plenty unless they dropped on it straight away the bike would have to had been totally stripped to find it, more than enough time for the police to track it down. To find this tracker thrown onto a roof still active it must have been fitted almost on display. Normally they would not of even known it had one fitted until it's to late - caught. If the thief had a jammer, the signal notifying of the bike theft would only have been sent after the tracker was removed and disgarded away from the bike and jammer. So by the time the message was received the tracker was already off the bike. Trackers emit an RF signal so easy to locate with a few quid's worth of detection equipment and if your breaking the bike for parts, there's little need to be delicate whilst accessing the tracker. Tear off the fairings and tank and the tracker will likely be in plain sight. Joeman the thief didn,t have a jammer and that is clear by first alert and second alert and also the dotted map route taken to the garages where the tracker was removed, i as a rule would go through my insurance but feel strongly that the shop is at fault for not making sure the tracker was secure and hidden and not just stuck in where it could be removed with ease. I have seen a solicitor and shown him police logs times etc and tracker logs and he believes there is a clear case to be answered!! , even the guys at tracker say the unit was /must have been fitted poorly. weather you agree is neither here nor there as its not you that has lost out. The shop as a professional outfit have a duty to supply goods as described, i have had calls from the service manager and the sales manager on the matter and they are clearly jittery about it, do we all stand back when a shop is in the wrong and do nothing .... no i s the answer especially when your spending 14k with them and putting all your faith in them
  7. I'd say very poor, I was told tank up air box up and then buried deep so no chance, I figured tank and air box up would be 20-30 mins etc then locate etc so 40 mins worse case, if this was so I would have had my bike back and all would be well, I have a solicitor appointment today and if he takes the case I will be taking court action to get a new like for like bike... Why should I lose out because of poor fitting, that's just neglect and unfit for purpose. Bikes are built to be serviced quickly by unskilled monkeys to maximise profits from servicing charges. Taking the tank and airbox off would take seconds for someone who knew what they were doing. Also, trackers can easily be jammed. Easy to have a jammer in the back of the van and drive it off someplace and strip it down. sorry to say, but your bike is likely already been broken for parts. With the limits of current technology, there really is no good hiding place on an R1 for a tracking device that cant be accessed in a few mins, so IMO getting solicitors involved will just be a waste of time and money. I don't think its a waste if time , the unit was up sold as a secure fitted well tucked away unit , even got a 2 hr charge for labour as it supposedly needed secure fixing.. Truth is unit was not secure and not hidden well, the recovered unit shows no marks and only a stretched cable where it was yanked out!! If secured it would not have been able to be yanked out!!

  9. I purchased a new 63 plate r1 from p&h motorcycles and as an upsale decided on bike track, like you i was of the mind my bike was safe. How wrong i was, on fri 24th jan at 10,21 am my r1 was stolen , i got an alert but as i got outside it was already gone, np i thought tracker will see me get it back, i called the police and tracker. The police arrived at 10,30 am and as i was giving details etc i received another alert saying battery disconnect. This was 10,58 am and was showing a location some 3 quarters of a mile away, the police got on it immediately and at 11,02 am were at the scene a block of 10 garages!!!. great i thought the bikes in one of them, the police contacted tracker direct and tracker sent a guy down on a bike to pin point what garage, his device narrowed it down to one garage, he put a probe camera under the door only to find an empty garage.. with this he said has anyone looked on the roofs , sure enough there it was complete tracker system and r1 gone. Now when i was sold this along with my new bike i was told they bury the device and it would take a couple of hrs to remove, it was infact removed in 3 minutes... needless to say im going to take action against seller for incorrect fitting and miss selling a product... man i am so pissed off
