The three bikes have a total value of £20,800.
Sergeant Stu Gilmour, said: "I am appealing for anyone with any information about these incidents to come forward and speak to us.
"Did you see or hear anything suspicous that could be linked to the incidents? Do you know anyone who has recently acquired a trials or MotoX bike, of have you been offered one for sale.
"The Husqvarna bikes were 2013 models and were the first of their type in the country.
"They will be appearing in dealerships in the near future. They are therefore very rare at this time and I am appealing to anyone who may have seen these bikes, to contact us as soon as possible."
Anyone with any information should contact North Walls police station on 101 or call Crimestoppers, annonymously, on 0800 555 111.
