Stolen XT600Z 3AJ in London, UK

Hey everyone - My XT600Z Tenere 3AJ has been stolen tonight in London. Hopefully someone has taken it for a joyride (and hopefully broke his legs in the process), but if you see a white 3AJ or parts for sale, please let me know. The Frame number is 3AJ034164, motor number is different but I didn't note it down.
The bike is registered in Germany and there shouldn't be too many German registered 3AJ in London either - If you see one, let me know!

Further details:
'89 model with the ugly, partly orange tank decor. On the front plastics, I took the orange sticker off so only the "Yamaha" sticker remains. The clutch and generator covers of the motor have been wirebrushed and polished. It has White and Black plastic Acerbis handprotectors and a braided break line in the front only. Motor- and Chassynumber are not the same. The exhaust is standard but welded at the end. It has a five-stars luggage rack and some steel bits have been welded to the standard rack by the previous owner. An adapter for a topcase is also mounted to the rack. The tires are Mitas E09 Dakar, so not very common.

Any help appreciated! Thank You!

Steffen

Sorry about your bike
Where in London was it stolen?
It may have been taken by the local council or DVLA if you had any outstanding parking tickets and a foreign number plate.
Good luck

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.
