Someone MUST have seen something for that many to be taken. It makes me mad just to think about it.

Basket's!!!
From personal experience i don't think they'll be seen again.As for Plod,don't expect much action from that direction.
I may be proved wrong,hopefully,but i've never seen my bike again.
Thankfully the insurance company did'nt have a problem paying out.
