PSA 15+ motorcycles stolen

This is just a PSA to try to help out another motorcyclist.

There is a motorcycle "network" where I work and I just received this sad email. These bikes stolen were near Los Alamos, New Mexico. I do not know the person who is impacted but just trying to assist. A long shot I realize.

You can let me know if you happen to see any of these vintage bikes for sale and I will pass it on. I may be able to get photographs if any one sees anything suspicious.

Thanks, Ken

Here is the email I just received.



Local motorcycle collector in East Mountains had a bunch of bikes stolen. Please pass along to other riders and get the word out.

Thieves are disgusting. I hope that the collector gets his bikes returned safely.

Was curious as to Ed's contact info...I'm the Editor for the Ariel Club of North America, so we are always looking for Square 4's that are for sale...There was a 1950 that popped up on CL a few days ago...But with no pics or contact info it makes it hard to help...Dan

Oh fuck. Opened this up anticipating them to be all modern spr0rtbiles stolen off the street in SF. They're vintage? Fuck, that hurts.

15 bikes? Thieves obviously knew something about the place they were stored.:wow
Here's hoping the crooks find the front of a cement truck coming the opposite direction.
So infuriating:mad
