Hey Mike Stewart

[Ralph Werner]

What's up with the WILDGUZZI posts on your V11 Sport? (Calling you a Harley guy, etc.). I always thought that the forum had more class than that!

Ralph,

 

Thats why I hang out here!

 

Mike

[Ralph Werner]

Mike, I'm with you. Used to really like WILDGUZZI but there are a few who seem to have a pessimestic, negative, or sarcastic answer for every post. Life is just too short for that!

 

Good luck in selling your V11 parts. I'm on my way tomorrow for a six day ride in New England with a stop at Americade.

....can't have any of those damned "harley guys" intruding on MG territory and supporting the cause.

 

haha!

 

p.s. Mike....wish I knew you were parting out before I bought a new Ohlins fork from Antonio last week.

[Guest davidb]

Ralph, six days!!! I hope your riding your beemer.

[Ralph Werner]

Nope - the Rosso. The Beemer has to wait.

...yeah, an odd thread for sure

 

 

I know many of the guys on WG don't ride V11 Sport/LeMans models, don't pop in over here much(if at all), and thus may not know Mike.

 

But I too thought the "tone" of the thread was a little on the negative side, and seemed a little elitist at times. What's funny is that through the discussion, it was obvious that none of them realized that Mike is probably more of a "Guzzi guy" than many of they are, but they didn't even take the time to check

 

They also didn't seem to deign to offer any fig-leaf either once it was clear Mike was "OK" by their Guzzi standards.... no "oh sorry dude, I see you own like 4 Guzzis and probably ride more than I do in a year"

 

 

Don't worry though Mike. I've got your back. If they've got a problem with you, they've got a problem with me.

 

...now, there .... they should be shaking in their loafers

 

We'll just have to take the Oakland and San Jose "clubs" over to their neck of the woods and have a "conversation"

 

 

[jrt]

ok, now I have to go look

[Guest Dave Pott]

Geez! I didn't get the same sense of any nastiness or negativity on that WILD GUZZI thread

 

That forum has alot of bright guys that like to be wiseacres and , yeah, you generally get "zinged" when posting even the most banal subject matter

 

Check out some of Enzo's recent subject postings.....now that gets nasty fairly quickly He gets jumped on hard usually.

Thanks. I've seen worse flaming.

 

It is a shame to break up that bike.

.... indeed, just having a little fun guys

[Mike Stewart]

Nah,

 

I don't mind what they think, to me it is all about dollars and cents.

 

I know some of the guys on the Wildgoose list, they are harmless. Perhaps stunned that parting a bike out with alot of add ons is easier than selling a complete bike.

 

I have received many emails of people wanting to purchase the complete bike, but they are talking $5000.

 

Thanks for your support,

Mike

I read that thread - what's in it to bother Mike ? seems pretty easy going to me. ...watch em when they really get going - slavering hyenas. there's some folks on there really got some baggage. - don't fear for Enzo, he's protected by the strength of his delusions....
