It is not the first time that an event of this type has occurred during the celebration of the famous Milanese EICMA. This year it was “China’s turn” Rok Bagorosknown for its Stunt shows on KTM mounts. On the closing day of the event, someone stole from the back of his van the Super Duke Evo R 1390 with which the Slovak driver has been doing his exhibitions for some time.
Motorcycle thefts are the order of the day
Motorcycle thefts have become a dangerous trend in much of Europe. The Internet is full of videos (many of them in the United Kingdom), where we can see how criminals operate shamelessly in broad daylight. Having a motorcycle has become a risky sport in depending on which cities of the old continent, especially if we usually have it parked on the street.
In the case of EICMA, in 2023, we already reported how a father and son tried to steal a Kawasaki KX250X from the brand’s own stand. Luckily, the military police in charge of event security activated a search device inside and outside the fairgrounds, blocking all exits, managing to hunt down the criminals and recover the motorcycle an hour later.
Apparently he was inside a truck with a German license plate, where the aforementioned father and son were also found, who were taken to the nearest police station to take their statements and open an investigation to really find out what happened. Now, three years after that, EICMA once again becomes the scene of a bizarre robbery.
Well, more like in a nearby parking lot where Bagoros had parked his van with the Super Duke inside. The photos published by the pilot, where it is clearly seen how they broke the window of one of the doors of the vehicle, give us a glimpse of the modus operandi used by the criminals to steal Rok’s mount.
Rok Bagoros ready to get his motorcycle back
It was the pilot himself who announced the news on his social networks, through an official statement in which he explained what happened. In addition, he offers 3,000 euros to anyone who provides him with some solid clue with which to recover the motorcycle:
“STOLEN MOTORCYCLE — €3,000 REWARD”
“My KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE R EVO was stolen today, November 8, 2026, at 9:30 pm in the shopping center with the UCI cinema in Bicocca, Milan. I am offering €3,000 for verified information that leads directly to the successful recovery of my bike. The reward will be paid only after recovery.”
Concludes: “If you saw anything or have information, please write to me privately. Don’t approach anyone—report sightings to the police. Please SHARE, especially around Milan!” We do not know if good old Rok will be able to recover his stunt partner, what is clear, after reading the comments in the publication itself, from many fans and followers of the pilot, is that motorcycle theft in Milan is the order of the day.
