How I Got My Stolen Vintage Bikes Back
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 жов 2024
- A fun journey searching for two amazing vintage MX bikes that were stolen. Even if you’re not a motorcycle fan you may enjoy this documentary and the details surrounding this case. Leon friends a new Leon update is coming soon.
The fact your narration is normally delivered in such a gentle, measured tone made the line _"My first thought was those _*_fucking_*_ thieves had revved the engine to hell and back"_ all the more powerful and relatable to the feeling of impotent frustration and violation one experiences after a burglary. Especially on your own property. Great story and a great outcome!
I'm here for the SAME reason...that really stood out. Sure glad he got them back at all, let alone in mostly great condition.
Same, I rewound and put on subtitles, I didn't believe what I heard! I well understand that frustration and anger. I said a lot worse whenever I've been robbed!
Been there, felt that.
Iv watched all Brady's video's I couldn't believe the F bomb 🤣
I thought EXACTLY the same thing. I mean, this is Leon's dad!
Hearing you call the guys assholes made me giggle like a kid who hears a respected adult swear. 😂I'm so happy you got your bikes back. Hope you updated your locks and maybe put up some cameras.
I was also thinking that he needs to put up some cameras on his property. Some deranged person may try to steal Leon.
Hope you didn’t miss the F bomb that made me giggle lol
Me too... but being an Aussie, and other than "the correct situation" I swear like every second word!! haha... overall, so glad he got his bikes back, and those 2 or 3 swear words are just a tiny bit of the anger we all feel to those "thugs and a$$holes!"
@@keithtarrier4558 100% No shame in swearing. This situation would have had me dropping bombs all over the place. It was just funny because he's usually so proper and innocent in his videos about Leon. 🤣
yeah he needs to make a video assuring us (and the thugs) that the place has better security and a undisclosed amount of HD video cameras pointed in every direction. No one should take something that does not belong to them.
Glad you got them back and there was no serious permanent damage to either of them. You were VERY lucky. Hearing 1978 referred to as "vintage" is making me feel old.
You think '78 is bad. I'm not going to tell you may vintage. Funny, I never think of myself as being old until I try to climb a Mountain.
I'm with you! I was vintage in 68!!!
it really feels weird being the same age as old people ...
@@maggienelson4437 I remember when I thought 30 was ancient!
Age is relative! You're still just as young as you feel inside.
Glad you got them back, Leon should be the only one pinching things around there!
I remember when I worked at a restaurant back in the late 80s one of the coworkers there was trying to sell an expensive Charvelle guitar for a mere $150. Coincidentally the next day some of my friends in a band mentioned how their $1500 Charvelle guitar was just stolen. So I helpfully pointed them to the culprit. It was pure luck and I could imagine the guitar could’ve permanently disappeared. I hope the vintage price of your bikes caused the thieves to be charged with grand theft, plus damages. But…hearing about all the meth heads and the incompetent prosecutors in the area where I live (Southeast Missouri) they will probably plea-bargain out and not serve any time.
Yeah, I wasn't very far away in neighboring Arkansas where the meth heads got my MINT '93 Shadow 1100 AM Classic and absolutely destroyed it before I got it back. I'm a grown ass man and cried a little when the cops showed me where it was and what had been done to it
@@Drmcclung Honestly I don't blame you, that's just devastating..
@@Aleikey It really was devastating. Was a fully original mint American Classic. And to this day I have no idea how the hell they got it out of the back of my truck, through 3 separate locks and carried a 780lb cruiser half a mile down the road where the hub luck & cable lock were found cut off. A month and a week go by and I get a call from Garland County Arkansas asking me another 10,000 questions, finally admitting they'd found it. TWO MILES from where it disappeared. With no paint on it, tank dented on both sides, the handlebars hanging down by the cables, bald rear tire (so they'd been riding it; for a while), pipes cut back, it was a shit show. And they made me pay $200 to get it out of the impound lot they took it to. So I think the county knew more than they were letting on just because I was an outsider from out of town up there to ride the mountains that Spring
@@Drmcclung sounds like the typical law enforcement integrity
@@flyingcheff absolutely typical for Hot Springs & Garland County, so I found out the hard way
Glad you got your bikes back. I remember my dad running down a thug to get my stolen Mountain Bike back when I was a kid. I saved so much paper route money for it. He basically made a citizen's arrest on the guy. They had changed stuff on my bike too. So weird to get something back that is so familiar but so foreign at the same time. Your video made me feel good. Thanks for that :)
From lobster and cats to bmx bikes and cave explorations Brady you're such a talented man and an inspiration in all senses, I'm so glad I came across your channel it is indeed a blessing.
Wish you nothing but the best, thank you for so much wholesomness, hardwork and inspiration.
I love how his channel is just him sharing his hobbies and passion projects with us.

and the koi. don't forget about those.
One of those rare instances where the algorithm actually did its job rather than pushing garbage content
Before watching the video, I’m going to guess Leon got them back for you as a thank you! How sweet!
He was like 🦞 I'll pinch your a$$!!!
So it was a good idea to move Leon after all in case someone broke in and trashed his tank while Brady was living elsewhere.
Ha, I knew I identified the voice right... immediately checked the channel and expected to find Leon videos (but I forgot about my blocktube-extension that hides watched videos). When the footage of that crimescene showed aquariums I had to check the comments... and I was right!
Awfully glad to know your bikes were recovered and I hope the other losses were insured. Good sleuthing too with your drone! Don't know a fig about motor bikes but I recognize the passion for the things you treasure.

I saw the video appear on my phone, and immediately heard Liam Neeson's voice:
"I have a particular set of skills, and a very hungry lobster...I will find you and feed you to him!"
So glad you got them back, Brady!
I'm so glad you got the bikes back! For us, it wasn't bikes, but we lost £14K of clothing we imported from a small designer in Toronto. The detectives were wonderful, they knew exactly who did it, because he was just a local addict who routinely stole stuff. However, they also knew the fence, and went to bust him. Sadly, our stuff was all gone, except for one of our holdalls, that we'd described to a tee, including small tear at one end, and the guy's wife had several of our garments hanging on the bedroom door, still with OUR labels attached. She said she bought it from 'some guy at the pub carpark'. Long story short, we never did see any of our stuff again, we trawled through markets and 2nd hand fairs, and shops, over 4 cities, but it was a long shot, and never saw a thing. We did get the few items from the house returned, probably about £300 of the £14K. It destroyed our business, and more crucially, it destroyed our passion for our business. My partner at the time said instead of feeling pride when he spotted people wearing our stuff, he just felt suspicious. Thieves don't give a shit about how deeply they affect peoples' lives. For you it was years of investment in your bikes, for us it was years of building up a business and reputation across Europe. I'm pretty sure even if the stuff was returned to us intact, we would have still felt violated, angry, frustrated, victimised. I fucking hate thieves.
Yeah, thievery is awful for the economy and a stable culture. It ruins everything for everybody.
Yeah, my grandfather’s garage was broken in the day he was burried and all his vehicles were stolen. The local police just laughed at us and told us it wasn’t their problem. You’re pretty lucky you were at least listened to.
@@c0mpu73rguy That is horrendous!!! What a horrible thing to happen!!! I'm so sorry you and your family endured that. Our police were great because there was a spate of thefts in the area and they knew and hated the guy who was organising it. I cannot imagine the added anger and frustration from not being listened to and feeling that at least something was being worked on behind the scenes. :(
That's your good karma coming back to you for saving Leon, Brady. It's almost a miracle you got both bikes back. Big respect for your proficiency at restoring vintage bikes and your care of Leon. Two happy endings. I love your channel 👍❤️⚔️🔥🐴
And, 2 happy beginnings!
You’re such a great storyteller, Brady. Thanks for sharing this one.
You could easily be a voice actor. Consider contacting Motel 6 to rekindle their interest in "leavin' the light on for ya" since Tom Bodett departed 😂😂😂
I have no words to say about how sorry I am for this for the invasion of your property or home. NO one should feel unsafe inside their own sanctuary. I am glad you got the bikes back. "Thugs" was the correct word. 👍👍👍 Hi to Leon. Glad he is OK buddy and you all too
No kidding, Brady is such a good dude who does so much good for nature he doesn’t deserve that crap. Those losers will get theirs.
WOW, Brady! You're incredibly lucky in getting them back! Vintage bikes like those can go for a cool penny or twelve to the right (wrong) people. Hope you've stepped up your security BIG TIME. 🙂
Came for Leon, stayed for vintage dirt bikes. 🤙
Came for Leon, stayed for bikes 😁
Awesome! Thank you so much for watching some of the other content. ✌️✌️✌️🦞
Same
You were so lucky to have gotten both back. My son in law had his motocross racing bike stolen out of his driveway. He lives 5 mile outside of town. It's been over 5 years now so he will never see that bike again. This happened in Wyoming in a town of less then 5000 people. So happy you found yours.
☹️☹️☹️
☹️☹️☹️
Those are beautiful bikes. I'm glad those thieves were not the violent type (they ran instead of attacking you that night). The way you focused your energies on solutions is admirable. And once you got your bikes back, the way you undid as much of the damage as possible was beautiful to watch. It's obviously in your nature to heal/restore animals, plants, and things around you. I believe this is the best a human can achieve. We need more people like you in this world.
As much as I would be pissed off about my bikes being stolen, I would be twice as pissed about my tools. My tools are an extension of my mind and hands, they help me create, problem solve and serve me well. “ Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to place it, and I shall move the world “
Archimedes...
Glad you recovered your bikes.
Bill, you are so right, and some tools can have a sentimental value also, passed down to us, or given to us as gifts years earlier
Back in the day when I didn't have an attached garage, my bike was parked inside my house. It looked just fine in the dining room. I'm glad you got yours back.

LOL- I used to know several guys who kept their bikes in the living room because - well because you know. I'd forgotten about that. Makes me happy to remember them. thanks
It was jarring hearing you swear, lol. I’m sorry this happened to you, dude. I had a break in when I was going through a rough period, and the police were no help whatsoever, they essentially laughed it off and said good luck. I ended up needing to settle things outside of the constraints of the law to get my stuff back, so I’m glad you had a better experience.
Hello Brady, I am so glad you got your bikes back, not many people understand the passion and dedication that goes behind restoring a vintage bike, it can take years sometimes to fish a project, thanks for posting your video,,all the best for the New Year, cheers from Aussie Land
Hey sergep yeah you are so right,… it’s more than just losing a bike you bought at a dealership,… it’s the personal sweat and time,… lost. Happy New Year from Georgia, USA. ✌️✌️✌️
My guess is the thieves were afraid of Leon…
Wow this hits hard and makes me so happy. When i was 15 someone stole my '78 yz125. never got it back. loved that bike. worked all summer cutting lawns to get it.
I think one of the most surprising things in this story is hearing the police doing their job and being successful at it. Glad you got your bikes back.
We don't get all the success stories so I agree. Happy for that PR, too.
Actually both departments were 💩 first department couldn't figure it out and couldn't make the connection,and the second set let one get stole again and it could have been both instead of having him come pick them up immediately,typical lazy police officers not wanting to do the paperwork ,so let them sit 6 more months in the weather ....glad he got them back though.
And then had the bike stolen from *them*. They did a good job finding the bike but that was most surprising to me.
Why is that surprising?
All the police hate, they’re doing the best they can you know but they’re still only human
Those two bikes are absolutely gorgeous! After the obvious and loving restoration put into these bikes, I'm sure you're proud to have them featured in a magazine article! I also had one of my motorcycles featured in a motorcycle magazine...... It was a 1976 Yamaha TT500
Thumbs up to you Brady!!
I'm so glad you were reunited with the beautiful duo. It's awful that they were treated so badly - If you haven't please upgrade your security to keep everything safe! I'd hate for anything like this to happen to you again.
What about the 1989 RM250? Were you able to get all of those stolen parts back? I wasn't sure if the parts were still in the tote you found.
Super happy to hear that you got your bikes back!
If they stole Leon the lobster then I will be upset.
Such beautiful bikes. I'm so glad you got them back.
Wow man you did a great job restoring them! They look great!
I am fan of restorations and this is one thing that I'm always worried for the people I watch, to have all the time, hard work, money, all the blood, sweat and tears, the frustration to just be stolen, I am so thankful you got the bikes back. I know some aren't as lucky.
Born in '68, this story had my emotions excited as I grew up right next to an old strip pit where bikes were humming at all hours. I got my first 125 at 12 and had so much fun!!!
As happy as I am for you I was also a bit disappointed that Detective Brandwood wasn't the one who located your bikes, lol! I know, it doesn't matter...they're back in your hands now, Peace.
Dude I came across your channel by accident. I first watched the video of you saving the lobster you had me hooked because I love animals and I’ve always wanted to do that with everyone I see great job the next video I watched was this one and I’m a motorcycle woman so I’m hooked I’m so glad you got your bikes back I hate thieves you seem like the kind of guy I would love to hang out with
Watching the moment they stole your bikes was very sad, but hearing about them coming along a second time right after was just infuriating! I can't even imagine what it must have felt for you that morning. I know I would have raged so hard! I wish you could have gotten all of your stuff back. But gotta be thankful that you are safe and sound and got your wonderful restorations back. Pleeeeease put up some cameras and alarms! Love your videos!
Life has some mysterious paths. I am a Leon fan, and I think that Leon's luck on being found and saved by you is less than one in million. You recovering your bikes, and over than that in a good state, is also one in a million. Maybe "The Guy" that plays our odds above us showed some appreciation! :) Best regards!
I won’t lie. In my heart of hearts I was hoping you were hiding in the shadows as they were cleaning you out and leapt out and threw Leon on them, who dispatched them readily! Sick ‘em Leon!
😅😅😅
@@BradybrandwoodInstall AirTags!
Yes pinch them in the sack Leon
Hey Brady , I really enjoy your videos. You sound like a great human being. Glad you hard work paid off. Leon is lucky to have you as a caregiver
Wow!!
I was looking for Leon updates and found this amazing story. You really lucked out. We were robbed and my dad’s antique Simplex was stolen. Over the years we’ve been cleaned out 4 times. We had the bike in an old building that had no windows. They managed to get in anyway. Glad you got yours back.
So glad you got these bikes back! You were so lucky. Many stolen bikes, cars, etc are stripped, painted, sold to never be seen again. 💜
Yeah, I was afraid these were going to be stripped down and parted out fast.
Superb hobby Brady, I'm into bikes too. Have a '79 XL250 and a few Ducatis. Well done getting your bikes back from the scumbags. Cheers from New Zealand.
Maybe train Leon as a guard lobster? Seriously though, I’ve had old Hondas - my favourite was a CJ360, and I can totally understand your love for them.
I am an avid YZ collector, primarily '74 & '75. The thought of somebody stealing them puts me into homicidal rage. I'm so glad you got them back!
Glad you got your bikes back, Brady. Too bad you didn't get it ALL back, though. I don't trust ANYONE and that's why I have guns and security cameras ALL AROUND my property. I also set traps and have boards with spikes strategically placed as well. I pity the assholes that attempts to relieve me of my hard-earned property.
@bradybrandwood.... Prize? For me? Thank you so much! What do I need to do?
All those bike ‘modifications’ appear to be meth head mods. They always do those weird things
As much as I love the Leon videos, I enjoyed this one very much as well. You’re a great storyteller. I’m glad you got your bikes back.
Thanks for checking out the video, yes, I was seriously lucky. ✌️✌️✌️
So glad you got your bikes back. I imagine it's the drugs that makes these kind of thieves so incredibly stupid.
I had a scooter stolen from a race track. The kid was a stoner, and left an easy trail of breadcrumbs to follow... he bummed some gas off of someone for the scooter, then tried to borrow a helmet from someone close enough to the trailer park he lived in that the guy was able to point me to the trailer park, I was able to find the scooter, knock on the door, and have a few strong words with the kid's parents. They were thankfully embarrassed for their kid's behavior.
I could sense your frustration, and applaud your determination in getting your bikes back, after working so hard to restore them. I lost a pit scooter, but if it were one of my motorcycles, I don't know how calm I could possibly be about it.
Glad this ended well. I know the pain. I got to the shop one morning and one of the garage doors was open and instantly I knew I had been robbed. The thieves backed a pickup in and cleaned me out. Put me out of business. It took a couple of weeks and a butt load of money to get back to where I could resume business.
Glad you got them back, train Leo to bite them for next time!!
I live in Rutherford Co NC, i literally keep my bikes in my house & have a couple of real nasty dogs. It’s literally every week around here you hear of bikes or atvs getting stolen.
So glad you got yours back!
Yeah it was so wild they were found there. I lived in Shelby for a while as a kid. Glad you watch yours closely. ✌️✌️✌️
If those thugs wouldn't make Leon sick, I would have said feed them to Leon 🤗😁
Sharp looking bikes - happy to hear you got them back!
Wow Brady This REALLY made me mad. Hope your state slaps some heavy jail time on those assholes Glad you got your property back
Very glad that you got your bikes back Brady! I did watch both of your resto vids. It’s a dam shame that people like those thugs exist. But one thing for sure we didn’t create them. I’m sure you’ve upped your security and hope something like this never happens to you again!!
Had and 82 honda XL 80 that was supposedly stolen from my dads house. My dad just so happen to had $400 for child support that week. Hahahaha
This man appreciates everything he has.
👏🏻
its amazing to see a police that actually does its job. im from brazil and here that would never happen
Had my car broken in at work & waited hours and hours for a rude cop to finally show up & yell at me for touching my car to see what was missing. Bellevue, WA, I worked 12 hr night shift, and she shows up after I would have been all the way home (3hr commute 1 way)🙄🙄🙄 So, you can say I'm also shocked that there are police that do their job in my country. Not that I hate all cops or something, but Seattle area cops suck (not the only situation I had to deal with...)
Sorry, I guess that was a bit of therapy for me😂
Congratulations,.you're a very lucky dude
You bring good feelings to strangers you will never know from sharing your adventures with Leon. Thieves bring misery upon themselves by their selfish deeds. Glad to hear this story has a happy ending you really were blessed.
I am glad you got the two bikes back. I remember my 1970's Honda 250 Elsinore. Loved that bike. It was my motor cross race bike.
wow and I thought this were just a Leon channel! Thank you so much for saving these vintage bikes! I just finished restoring my 1987 Kawasaki KDX 200. F the people that stole them from you but so happy that you were able to recover them, most stolen bike stories don't end this well! Tread lightly my friend
You should post these thugs name and phots online ! Even on UA-cam!!!
So glad you got these back and so many were willing to help. These old bike are so cool great restore.
Awesome! Thank you for checking it out. ✌️✌️✌️
Kudos for working with those older 2 strokes!!! Cool bikes.
Pond scum !! that’s what I call them . We could feel your relief on getting the bikes back. I was really worried you were going to add something about them trying to break in and hurt Leon . Just writing it I feel rage . It’s weird how a lobster and your sharing with us has created this world wide following . greetings from canadan
I have Blink Security Camera on my Bikes. Glad you got yours back.
I'm glad you got your bikes back. They are really cool looking and you obviously love them more than any of the bozos who ended up with them.
How long were they missing before you got them back?
Years ago on our farm, some dumb yahoo stole our 4 wheeler. Our four wheeler is our farmhand, he helps us move sheep, their food, our dogs, both little and large. They had brass to pull this in middle of hot summer night, with every window in the house wide open. Our little dogs will bark at anything, from a mouse to an imaginary whiff of air. Funny thing is they didn't bark at all that night.
Sheriff called report made and we waited. And waited and waited. Fall finally came leaves off the trees and bright yellow tarp under the brambles of blackberry patch. Our 4-wheeler under the tarp. Out of gas, first aid kit for the dogs missing and weirdest thing the dent i put in the front fender was gone.brand new fender in its place. We called the sheriff and he was there pretty quickly. He found the receipt for the fender tucked under the seat. End of the story was kids from the bad side of the tracks and their loser parents that had no idea how or when that four wheeler ended up on their fence line. Except daddy bought that fender 2 weeks prior. He went to prison,the kids went foster care and we now have security cameras everywhere.
Wow!!! Interesting story! That’s crazy. Thanks for sharing. ✌️✌️✌️
I'm so glad you were able to get your bikes back Brady. What a great video....thanks for sharing your story! 👍🎄❤
Awesome Cindy! Thank you for checking it out. ✌️✌️✌️
@@Bradybrandwood Thank you for replying. It makes us feel like we are friends with our favorite UA-camrs. Looking forward to your next Leon video too. 🙂 Happy Holidays Brady! 🎄👍🎅
nothing lower than someone who takes other people's stuff
I don’t think I have ever heard the word “thugs” more in my life! Haha Glad those thugs got what was coming to them and you got your bikes back! 🎉
You were very lucky to get them back !
Nice bikes everyone wanted a honda CR when I was a kid.
So glad you got your bikes back. Being the victim of a theft like that can be really difficult to deal with. It was great to see you turned a bad experience into a good video. :)
Wow the Boys In Blue came through!
I am shocked you were able to get the bikes back. So much of our property is being damaged and stolen today and no one ever seems to get caught. I’m glad you had a happy ending.
I just found the title to my stolen vintage bike
I am damn proud of you for not only restoring those beautiful bikes, but getting them back! So many people go through that… and just give up and cut their losses. That’s what pos thieves always assume the people they take from will do. 🤘😉 Right on brother!
I doubt the scumbags even consider the victim. Lucky to see the bikes again. The Arabs chop off thieve's hands. Bike thieves deserve to lose a foot too ! Lets see em steal another bike then.
@@Dudley-x2c I 100% agree!
I bet Leon appreciates having the bikes back as well ...
So happy you got them back but for me I would be quite upset that someone was messing with them like you were. I pray for you to never have to go through this junk again.
Those are some sweet Hondas! They sound great!
Oh man! What a blast from
the past! My brother and I used to both have 1990 RM 125s we used for racing motocross!
I am glad you got your bikes back.
Both bikes sound so good!
Did you get your RM parts back or your tools?
No, unfortunately I didn’t get the RM back or any of the tools. I did have a 1990 RM 125 back in the day too. Such a great bike! Very cool!
Oh Brady! I am SO glad you got those beauties back! Those sound like my childhood, haven't heard that in a while....it felt good. Looks like it's time to plant some cameras, eh? Because I'm betting those junkies told at least one friend about your place.
I wish you and the Fam a VERY Merry Christmas and a Festive Holiday Season! May your cranberry sauce have chunks of orange and walnuts, your toesies be warm and your hearts full of Joy! Pass a pet around to the kitties and toss a whistle out the door for the wild birds from their friend Betty!
Brady me too!!!!!!!!! I went to school with on of your kids and live just down the road from you. I just had my 1996 RM250 and 1981 CR450 stolen. I contacted the same dealer as you and they told me there is a big ring of stolen bikes going on. Please let me know if you know anything and I am so glad you got your elsinors back!!!
Wow Joe I hate to hear that! I was just talking to one of the detectives in my case the other day, and he said the same thing that you said. They are having to deal with a lot of stolen by cases these days.
Glad you got these beautiful bikes back. I hope you've got much better security now. The crimes today are out of control.
Great outcome for you, a vindication of sorts. I really enjoy your films and have followed the saga of Leon from the start. Entertaining and informative, I commend them to friends and my kids watch them also. Here I see another side of your personality, the vintage bike restoration, and more entertainment to come. I have a shed full of older Dirt bikes, mostly my own from the 1970's. I regret selling so many of the bikes I have owned over the years, especially my silver tank CR125M, but you cant keep them all. cheers to you, and Leon, take care and I am happy you were reunited with these bikes.
Awesome that you have a shed of old bikes SCR! I love the look of 70’s bikes. Also thank you for watching the channel. ✌️✌️✌️
Glad you got them back and they weren't too destroyed! Would love to see a second channel from you about restoring vintage bikes and whatever else you restore.
So glad you got your passion projects back! There is an adage that luck is when preparation meets opportunity... definitely true in your case. Your diligence in pursuing their recovery, including your hours of outreach to the legitimate BMX community, is potentially the reason that you were the statistical anomaly in stolen bike recovery. It is a rotten shame that the rest of your workshop couldn't be recovered.
One thing that startled me watching your bikes rev was the constant stream of smoky exhaust that the tail pipes emitted. That sure was 1978 - back before pollution and health concerns forced limits on particulate emissions! Away, the world that we have left behind....we were lucky to have lead taken out of gasoline!
This video did make me sharply nostalgic for cars from that period I loved.. my first one, a new 1974 Honda Civic in orange, the first year they were imported from Japan, or the 1974 BMW 2002 tii I bought used 10 years later. Those cars had no air bags, shoulder belts, catalytic converters or cushy suspensions. They were mechanical and could be repaired by an owner in his backyard. You felt the road as you were driving and could use the manual transmission to slow the car and spare the tires.
You do an excellent job of telling all of your stories! Your calm, measured and informed delivery makes me actually care about topics which might normally not interest me. May your burglary deterrent strategies all be successful in the years to come! And so glad Leon made the trip well. Change takes him a while to overcome.
Hey thank you for the enjoyable read. Yeah since those bikes are old cylinders I tend to run a richer fuel/oil when I crank them,… so they do smoke a bit more.
What an amazing story. I am so glad you got them back. I am a vintage woman and restoring things you value becomes a labor of love.
What a tale. I've been a watcher of your vids since I discovered you CR250 build video so I was mortified to hear you tell this story. So so rare to have this outcome, glad it worked out to a decent result for you.
Yeah, I was very lucky, and have to give a lot of credit to the guys at the sheriffs department who recovered the bikes. Thanks for checking out the video.
Brady, By proxy, we need to catch up with ANY associated thug involved and pay our "respects" to them. My blood is boiling! Glad you got your bikes back, but that does not excuse what they did. I don't have much confidence the judicial system will take the appropriate action. Consequences need to exceed the crime committed.
Congratulations on recovering your bikes. I've heard while watching your latest Leon video. I am also a bike enthusiast and I had to come and watch this video. I am really happy, you got your bikes back. I can positively say: the snowflakes are lucky they didn't get to listen to me mouth. If I had been in your situation, they would have had a royal shit or two. I'll tell you that!
😅😅😅👊👊👊
Wait, this isn't leon
You didn't know?
Leon's a transformer.
@@mikeconley9590 The color is certainly right 😉
Glad you got them back. There is so little consequences for stealing today and had you caught them and rough them up for breaking into your property and stealing your stuff, you would probably be getting sued.
Yeah, absolutely. A touchy situation you have to be careful with unfortunately.
I am very glad you found your bikes. They look awesome from Cape Town South Africa.
12:28 ...LANGUAGE😂😂 jk, I understand the feeling
Fascinating story.. I can imagine the heartbreak of finding something you lovingly restored stolen! 🤦🏻♀️ So glad you got the bikes back..
_"Those f* thieves!"_
Brady YOU are definitely A Renaissance Man!!! I'm so sorry this happened to you. You are right we have this beautiful world to enjoy and live in; but indeed we do have waaayyy to many NumNuts. Peace ☮
