Dear Miked.

Do you know what type of motorbikes were stolen.
Are they the small scooter type of larger ones?
Reason I ask is sometimes drive my Kawasaki 400cc down to Hua Hin from Bangkok and park at Tescos to do some shopping.
I presume the bikes were not locked and were just wheeled away or if they were locked they might have been lifted on to a pick up truck. I've seen that done a few times in Thailand.

Thanks for the warning

all small bikes, Fino seems to be the most popular. according to my wife they steal them to break for spares.
