Motorcycle theft in Edinburgh has dropped significantly according to figures sourced from Police Scotland by Moto Stable founder Callum McPherson.
The businessman believes a key reason is that motorcycle owners are aware of the potential for theft and know that they are not able to leave their motorcycle outside overnight.
His Abbeyhill-based company provides secure, all-hours city centre motorcycle storage on a monthly membership basis.
McPherson said: “Motorcyclists know they can’t take any chances.”
The company, who look after high-value bikes including Harley Davidson, BMW and Ducati, is looking for a second Edinburgh location to expand.
