AMA SX: Langston's championship-winning bikes stolen

Langston Motorsports sent out an update on Facebook this morning reporting that Grant Langston’s championship-winning Supercross bikes have been stolen over the weekend from their family-owned and operated bike shop in the U.S.

Langston’s Pro Circuit Kawasaki KX250Fs from the 2005 and 2006 seasons have been stolen by “two masked men wearing hoodies”, caught on surveillance camera and stealing six other bikes in the process.

Here’s what the post read direct from Langston:
Langston Motorsports in Perris Southern California was broken into. Surveillance video shows two masked men with hoodies, driving a white U-Haul van with a green fish on the side. They smashed through a glass door and grabbed eight bikes including my two irreplaceable Pro Circuit championship bikes from 2005 and 2006.

According to police if these thieves are to be caught it will be with the help of the motocross community tipping them off about someone trying to sell these special bikes or the almost unobtainable parts off them. My family and I are asking that anyone with information to contact the Riverside County Sheriffs Department on 951-210-1000 the case number is PE100090014. Deputies said if anyone sees the suspects with the bikes, not to try to append them but to call 911. A $US1,000.00 cash reward is being offered for any information that leads to the recovery of the two championship bikes. Please see our website at www.langstonmotorsports.com for more information and a list of bikes stolen.

Thank you so much for your help!
