A driver has spoken of his grief after his rare £12,000 motorbike was stolen in broad daylight while he was talking on the phone just a few steps away. Triston Williams, 26, wheeled his bike from his home to the nearby St Wilfrids Square, Calverton, when he received a phone call from his friend.
Following the four-minute chat, he returned to find his bike, a Ducati Panigale 1199 S, had been taken. Triston said his original thought was he had parked it elsewhere, but a man who witnessed the incident told him a couple of people had "gone off with it."
Triston, who works as a product marketing manager for Road Angel, a manufacturer of GPS-based products and car dash cams, said he felt "a wave of depression" following the incident. He says he and Road Angel had been researching and developing state-of-the-art trackers for motorbikes to help bikers avoid situations like this one.
