Sorry to hear that....Just read your mail and replied...Unbelievable and first time I hear a bike is stolen there...
On holiday in Çanakkale and will be in İstanbul very soon and lets meet to search together..
Where are you staying now..
1-There is a tourism police building at the end of the square..white wooden one next to blue mosque.Did you apply there..
2-Are you sure its not taken away to a parking lot by traffic police because of illegal and wrong parking...If so, police can tell you where it is taken to by the number plate..Hope this is what happened..
All the best..

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
