Grant Langston Stolen Motorcycles Video
Tuesday, January 12, 2010
Grant's two Pro Circuit Kawasaki championship bikes (right) were taken along with six others.
I’m not much for meaningless YouTube posts, but this one isn’t random garbage. Grant Langston overcame a lot of hardship in the past two years. After perhaps the most successful 125/250F career of any racer - ever - and clinching the 2007 AMA Motocross championship for factory Yamaha, Langston was stricken with eye cancer, forcing a layoff that would span all the way until last Saturday night when he triumphantly returned with a 10th-place finish at
Anaheim 1. As if his luck weren’t bad enough, within 24 hours prior to his comeback, two men broke into
Langston Motorsports and stole eight motorcycles. Included were his title-winning Pro Circuit Kawasaki KX250F machines from 2005 and 2006. Since our original blog regarding the theft, more information has become available, including the video surveillance footage.
