Its’ been a spooktacular October for bike recoveries
In October, we added over a quarter of a million pound to our estimated total sum of bikes recovered this year. It’s been a highly successful month of recoveries, from bikes being recovered in 12 minutes to the dedicated collaborative work with the Metropolitan police, let’s reflect on the last month of getting your vehicles back to you.
Our Vehicle Recovery Specialists worked overseas to help recover a BMW bike stolen in France. With the help of the local police force, this bike along with others stolen too, were successfully recovered within the same day. With Datatool, you aren’t just protected at home, you’re protected worldwide.
65% of bike thefts in October happened during the daytime (between 06:00am and 17:59pm). Thieves will strike at anytime, anywhere and to anyone, even in the bright daylight hours.
The top 3 most stolen bikes were the Honda WW125, Yamaha NMAX and the BMW Motorrad R1300 GSA. Even if you aren’t an owner of these makes of bikes, that doesn’t mean your bike is automatically safe from theft either. These owners decided to take control in the event that their bikes got stolen and protected their passion with Datatool – isn’t it time you did too?
