As it had run out of fuel it is likely to have been lifted by a van or other large vehicle.

A police spokesman said: “The motorcycle was only left for a short period of time while the owner went to collect fuel.

“Although this was on a rural road, I believe someone will have seen the bike being taken or moved on to another vehicle and not thought anything of it.”

Anyone with information should call 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
