POLICE have smashed an organised crime network that allegedly stole $500,000 worth of high-performance motorcycles and cars from Perth CBD over several months.

Detectives from the Vehicle Crime Unit arrested 10 people after a six-month investigation, codenamed Operation Beaver.

Police say the group targeted high-performance vehicles, which had been ordered by "criminal associates.''

"A lot of times they were going into unit complexes, getting into secure car parks, breaking the locks and putting (the motorbikes) on the back of a ute or wheeling them out,'' Detective Sen Sgt Jason Beesley said.

"They were an organised group and they were selling off the bikes to criminal associates and other associates.''

It's understood the group stole between 30 and 40 motorbikes and many of those were rebirthed.

Police recovered about $200,000 worth of high-performance vehicles and parts during search warrants.

Several bikes were also recovered from a Malaga panel beating business.

The owner of the company has been charged.

More than 50 charges were laid against the group, including burglary, stealing motor vehicles, receiving stolen goods and drug offences.
