Probably gonna speak too soon here, but I have always just used the black plastic standard ones and not had any nicked in over 25 years of driving!

I know, it is so annoying, I've had a couple of sets taken, I caught the little scrotes last time and told them to hand them over while I took their picture on my camera-phone, not seen them since!

I do have some anti-theft ones, but took them off for a track day and haven't put them back on.

The first set I had were some really nice blue anodised ones I bought while on holiday in the states.................gone!

ive had this once, i got a set of silver ones and they were gone within a week lol.

i was gonna get the anti theft ones, but i have seen theives cut them off to get them. so dont want that to happen and ruin the valves.

I meant to get a hold of some of the flush ones before I had my new tyres fitted but went and forgot - may remember next time!

When fitted you just have something similar to a large screw head showing - you have to screw in an adapter to check pressures, very neat.

thats crap mate, worst thing is it was probs an mg owner (a zr owner most likely :D) that nicked them.

Na only kiddin!! I got the anti theft ones, worked a treat, but one of them seized up and i couldnt get it freed up, sure enough it went missing 2 weeks ago, so if anyone has a spare richbrook cap floating about pass it ere please:smart:

I caught a little ****er removing mine a few years ago..I was walking up behind him quietly and kicked him up the arse sooo hard he didn't land for a few feet, then ran away crying, leaving his bike behind. Although it felt great doing it, I was cacking myself for weeks expecting Mr Pold to pay a visit, but I got away with it.

I thought this would ring home for a few of you .So glad i did't see them cause i don't think it was kids.
(probs wouldn't be here now:shutup2:)
These were proper steel ones tightened with spanner that i couldn't unscrew with my hands so they new what to use.

And that's the fourth set in as many month's:mad::mad:
