The scooter was tracked down and seized, and last Friday another bike known to have been used alongside the blue scooter was spotted by police officers and seized near Steetley Quarry, which is popular with off-road bikers.
The rider and passenger, who were photographed, ran off over train tracks to evade capture.
A police investigation is underway to identify and trackdown the duo.
