Hi,

Just a heads up. Some D005 tried to steal my Dakkie this morning in Bergvliet. 7am. It was parked behind gates in a security complex. The caretaker caught the guy fiddling with the bike, but unfortunately he got away. 

Seems the person came prepared, had full kit on and knew exactly which wire loom to open and which wires to cut to hotwire the bike. He just could not get the steering lock loose in time, but from the way my ignition switch feels, he definitely had a go.

I'm guessing this must be some kind of syndicate.

Any similar experiences by any Dogs?
