One of my dad's old racing buddies had his racebike stolen on Thursday night/friday morning - here's the text from his emails. If anyone sees/hears anything, let me know!
Not a good photo, will post better if I can get hold of one.
I have just discovered my LC went missing last night between 2000 and 1315 this afternoon. This bike is distinctive as it has a one of tank/seat combination and nose fairing painted white. It had the number 36 on the number plates.
The frame is painted green to match the number plates. It has 30mm Mikuni carbs and Avon tyres. It also has a Femsa ignition. They are scarce especially with the modifications I have done.
The frame number is 5E1-101024. I do not have the engine number as I just put in a spare motor.
The bike is distinctive as you know. There are parts that are exclusive to my bike. ANZ Controls mechanical temperature gauge, Femsa ignition with a homemade electronic black box, one off combined tank and seat, one off nose fairing, non-standard throttle twist grip, homemade rear brake and gear selector mechanisms, chambers and other bits and pieces like brackets and levers.
I have owned the bike on and off since I bought it new in 1980 so it has a lot of sentimental value. Besides, I want to beat Ken Croucher.
Photo attached. Please keep your eyes open. It can only be raced so it probably will disappear.
I will compensate the finder.
