    All,

    I know this is the longest shot but please share this post on as many trackday / bike / race type forums as possible, once shared please reply saying where you have shared it. Slim chance it may be spotted being advertised for spares or complete bike, or it may end up on track.
    There are engine and frame numbers to follow (although could be ground off by now)
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Stolen early hours of 6th April 2015 from a main car dealership near Wakefield, West Yorkshire
    Suzuki GSXR K5 750 track bike as part of a more significant break in.
    Gear indicator, Akropovich end can. After market rearsets. Aftermarket sprockets

    There is a dent / damage to left hand side of tank (not visible in this picture)

    Please keep your eyes open on ebay, Gumtree etc. but also at trackdays where it 'may' turn up will add images of tank damage if I locate an image with it.

    Code links to images below to help with posting on other forums:

    This has turned up, pretty much destroyed

    The thief tried riding at night around 02:00 with no lights, lost control and bike crashed into some concrete bollards where it met its end

    Rider crawled around 300 meters in agony before being spotted and ambulance arrived, he is currently in hospital for at least a broken leg and hopefully much more.
    Will now be able to ask police to lodge claim for value of bike and may need to lodge formal claim via small claims court and receive it from his benefits or similar unless he has assets they can put a charge on for recovery.
