Always complain to the landowner, no matter who they are.
Complain to your MP about this unregulated scam.
Do you know, or have any proof when the bike was stolen, even though you were out the country at the time? Did you report the theft and therefore have a crime number?
Keep complaining to the scammers and the IPC, referring them to the relevant part of the PoFA 2012 about stolen vehicles.

My only issue with this is I wasn't sure who the landowner actually is as it a residential block of flats! Any suggestions on how I might find out?
I'll definitely follow up with a complaint to the MP. 
I do. I have a crime reference number from the police as well as photos showing damage to my bike.
As with the other posted, I will definitely keep the PoFA 2012 in mind should they not accept my challenge. The first email they have responded to was clearly an automated response so I will state my case in my reply and hopefully they will see sense following that.
Many thanks for your help!

Your motorbike is registered at your old address, isn't it?  

Like all the zillions of other cases where no letters were received because the vehicle address wasn't updated because people just send the DVLA their driving licence to update and not the V5C logbook, which can be done in minutes online.

Also - even if they met POFA while it was stolen you were, by definition, no longer KEEPING the vehicle 

You cannot be liable.

Nos is right, this PCN has nothing to do with you.  If they want proof that it was stolen,  (a crime report or letter from the insurance company),  say that  it will cost them a tenner.  You owe them nothing, no  money, no explanation, nothing..
