Dear Resident,
We have received a report of an attempt theft of motorbike which occurred in the Scartho Ward Area.
Due to this being a live investigation, we are unable to share full details with you, however please remain vigilant and report any suspicious behaviour via 101.
If you are a motorbike owner, please consider additional crime prevention methods, such as the following:
Physical Security - Disc Lock: This secures the brake disc and prevents wheel rotation. - Heavy chain & D-lock: Thread this through the frame or swingarm, not just the wheel. Secure this to an immovable object for additional security (such as a ground anchor). - Bike Cover: Conceals the make and model of the vehicle and adds an additional step for thieves.
Electronic Security - Alarms and immobilisers: Fit a Thatcham-rated alarm with immobilisation and movement sensors. - GPS Trackers: Hide a tracker under the seat or inside fairings. Trackers can provide real-time locations, geofencing alerts and can assist in recovery success.
Smart Parking & Daily Habits - Always lock the steering: it costs nothing and greatly slows roll-away theft. - Park in well-lit, busy areas where thieves are less likely to operate. - At home, use a garage or shed with upgraded locks and lighting. - Remove Keys, even for short stops as thieves exploit moments of inattention.
Marking & Identification - Property-mark parts to make resale harder and help police identify recovered bikes.
Motorbike theft prevention is most effective when multiple security methods are used together.
For more crime prevention advice, please refer to the Humberside Police Website.
