Some major developments regarding Yamaha Tracer locked in at the Superbike Premises in Castle Donington.
The auditors/insolvency firm have picked up some suspicious activity by one of the major shareholders.
It involves another firm that is alleged to be BigMoto, with a common director.

The Police are now allegedly involved, they are believed to have visited the Castle Donington  premises. All the bikes, stock and equipment are unchanged, as they were before they ceased trading.

It now looks as if there is a new approach due to suspected criminal activity, now it looks as if he will get his bike returned at a future date unknown.

Apparently the Castle Donnington dealership is looking to return some bikes to the owners in the next couple of months.

You definitely would be hopping mad having to wait that long, but at least you would get it back.
What a mad world.
