This is some total bullpucky! I freakin hate thieves. (Hope this hasnt already been posted, actually dont care if it has, needs to get out!)

From MXLarge:

Joel Smets 2003 championship winning bike has been stolen from a museum in Brussels. If anyone knows anything about this theft please contact Joel on his facebook page

https://www.facebook.com/smets.joel or us at mxlarge at mxlarge@live.nl

The five times world motocross champion gave this plea to the public on his facebook account.

“Already more than 10 years, my last worldchampionship bike (2003) was an eye catcher in Sportimonium museum near Brussels. A beautifull museum about all Belgian sport champions from all different sports. Unfortunately, last week my bike got stolen from the museum. Police have started an investigation but together with all your help on social media I believe we have a better chance on finding back this unique souvenir!! Thanks inandvance for sharing this message and keeping me informed!!

It had to be an inside job. The thing was in a museum, not a shed in someone's backyard. I hope they figure it out and run their balls through the chain and sprocket when they catch them.

It's just a 2k worth piece, no matter the technology at the time. C'mon, a stock FE would lap it. Wink

It's in a container, on its way to the streets of Philly?
