Police Warning After Eastfield Bike Theft

Police say they are investigating the theft of red and white Honda CB500 motorbike.

This occurred sometime during the daytime of Friday 11th September 2026 in the area of The Boulevard, Eastfield.

Do you have any information which would assist North Yorkshire Police in finding those responsible and help keep your community safe? 

  • Did you or anyone who you live with, hear or see anything around the above time and date? 
  • Do you have any CCTV coverage capturing the burglary, or anything happening on the street before or after? 
  • Do you have a vehicle with a dash-cam parked in the area? 

If you can assist, please call 101 quoting reference 12260178668.

Police issued the following advice:

'Lock - Use a disc lock to help secure the front brake disc, or a grip lock to secure the brake and throttle controls. You could also use a D lock on the front wheel to stop it being wheeled away. 

'Chain - Thieves often steal a bike by breaking the steering lock and wheeling it away. Use a chain lock through the back wheel (the front wheel can be removed). Secure your bike, with the lock taut to an immovable object such as a ground anchor or street furniture. This will stop thieves from cutting a lock trailing on the ground using an angle grinder. If this isn’t possible, thread the chain through your bike frame and back wheel.

'Cover - Thieves often ‘shop’ for particular bike models. Using a cover instantly makes it less attractive to them. A cover also provides another time consuming obstacle for the thief.

'Unfortunately security measures can’t guarantee your bike won’t be stolen but, by using multiple security measures, you can make it harder and less attractive for thieves.

'Please do not be alarmed by this information – North Yorkshire is one of the safest places to live in the country however it is important to take steps to protect yourself and your property.'
