A Manteca custom bike builder is offering a $5,000 no-questions-asked reward for the safe return of a one-of-a-kind custom motorcycle that was stolen Thursday afternoon from a RV Storage facility on Austin Road. Paul Binford, the owner of Binford’s Custom Cycles, received a call from a friend shortly after 4 p.m. on Thursday that the hood on his pickup truck had been raised and the he believed somebody may have been trying to steal his battery. Binford, who was storing the bike in a trailer in anticipation of an upcoming custom motorcycle show, arrived shortly thereafter and discovered that the back of the trailer had been broken into and the 2013 Harley Davidson Streetglide that he had stripped down to the bare frame and rebuilt painstakingly was missing.
