    I'd be interested to know how the head injury occurred.

    This is why my Scrambler was stolen by three %#&@*s, in full view of numerous people, in broad daylight, from a crowded supermarket carpark while I was inside and no one made any attempt to stop them.

    In fairness, would you risk getting stabbed to save someone else's property? The world has always been a dangerous place and you're far more likely to get knocked off by a selfish or incompetent driver than anything like this happening. You can spend your time worrying about it (one in several million chance) or just crack on, the media is full of scare stories as "nothing happened " never makes the news..

    A really sad story, but this can happen to anybody at any time. You don’t have to be a biker. There are too many b@stards out there they do not respect people or their property :mad:

    That's because they know they can do pretty much what they like and non one dare do anything about it, other than maybe shout at them, for fear of the law. Back in the day, anyone who got caught doing such things got the sh*t kicked out of them, then arrested.

    Ahh, the days of copping a hiding in the cells. As a kid it taught me way more about consequences than an appearance in court. Get back to the old ways and society would be a far better place.
    P.S. I wonder what the bike was, hate to go to gaol for a step through.

    I wonder if it was a specific bike… robbed to order kind of thing.

    @Mrs Visor … a pisspot helmet is no defence to a boot in the fizzog!
