The Tsunami-Tossed BMW Harley-Davidson from Japan to Canada

 Harley-Davidson motorcycle with Japanese plates was discovered on a beach in British Columbia, Canada. The container, which appears to be the cargo area of a box truck, is believed to be one of the first notable pieces of debris set adrift by the 2011 Japanese tsunami to land in North America.
Beachcomber Peter Mark discovered the containerwhile riding his ATV along an isolated beach on Graham Island, an island south of the Alaskan Panhandle.

The Harley-Davidson Softail bears a license plate registered with the Miyagi Prefecture, which received the brunt of the damage from the Japanese earthquake and tsunami last March. The Softail was severely rusted, the license plate and VIN should provide enough information to identify the bike’s owner.
The container was made of a foam material which helped it remain afloat during its trans-continental journey. The cargo box also contained a couple of golf clubs, tools and camping equipment.

BMW R1200 GS Stolen and Recovered

BMW R1200 GS  Stolen and Recovered

Adventure touring documentary star Charley Boorman and his BMW R1200GS Adventure have traveled a long way together, but the motorcycle had a bit of an adventure on its own after thieves stole the bike.
The stolen BMW wasn’t the one Boorman rode with Ewen McGregor in “Long Way Round” (that was a R1150GS Adventure) or the one used in the sequel “Long Way Down“. Boorman did ride it on his last project, “Charley Boorman’s Extreme Frontiers: Canada”.                                                                                                          






The GS wasn’t gone for long however. The motorcycle was equipped with Bike Trac, an anti-theft GPS tracking system from U.K.-based Road Angel Group. The Bike Trac system was triggered at 4:29 am GMT on April 21 and tracked to a location in London. The trail then led to the nearby town of Watford.
Armed with a warrant, police were able to track Boorman’s GS to a garage where it was found partially dismantled, just hours after it was stolen.
“Naturally I was pretty shocked to learn that my bike had been stolen,” says Boorman. “In normal circumstances the chance of ever seeing a bike again after it’s been stolen is very slim. But with the knowledge that it had a Bike Trac unit fitted, I was fairly hopeful. To get the bike recovered so soon really is a testament to the system indeed.”
