maenam Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Some crazy Punks stole the Motorbike of my girlfriend while we were sleeping in our House last night. Today we went to Nathon Police; told all our Thai neighbors; told everybody at my workplace; my landlord is quite influential in Samui. Any chance to get the scooter back? Anybody good experience after been robbed?? There might be a place where the freaks sell and buy stolen Motorbikes on the Island? Appreciate some comments.

Obiwan Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 I found two stolen bikes back by just driving around and looking for the bike (licence plate). Sometimes they just use them, but that was a long time ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noodles Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 It's big business on samui, I would think most are shipped over to the main land. There was a story a while back in samui express or on samui news about bikes being shipped to Surat and a goverment official or head village man was involved in it over there. As people have said the BIB know who's doing it, so ask them. My friend had his bike stolen from in front house for the second time. He went to the BIB with a finders fee, and when he woke up in the morning, his bike was back in the same spot! I kid you not!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imjustagirl Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 i offered 5k reward to BiB and had a call 4 hours later that they had it! Kids had lifted it and had quite the operation as 8 other bikes were found! Offer asap, sooner rather than later as it could get stripped down pretty sharpish!

danw Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 (edited) Any news on the number? Edited October 17, 2009 by danw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maenam Posted October 17, 2009 Author Share Posted October 17, 2009 hm, gf offered the reward already to the coppers, 4K. actually was the first she did in Nathon. yes, the number is รถป้ายแดง โชคคูณโชค 172, and it's a red number plate. Gossip is that Maenam is quite dodgy at the moment with all this Yaba kids and bored youngsters robbing and stealing like there is no tomorrow.

mattcodes Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 There is a Fino looks similar (cant be sure) parked outside Sala Samui (choeng mon), on the front next to the gym (before you go into the hotel). However it has a fitted floor matt on it where the feet sit (says fino on the matt and has like japenese cats on it) which from your picture it doesnt have it. It has no plates. It was there about an hour ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rideswings Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 Do you have insurance and if so does your insurance cover theft of the motorbike? I still havent figured out if the insurance I paid for when I bought my bike included theft coverage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
