Murchy was notified by mikeymoto .....yes Mikeymoto actually told murchy that he was stuck with his old bike. and even called him to touchbase with him about the situation. long story short- that the wholesaler no longer wanted the vehicle. so mikeymoto was stuck with the bike. Having acouple of cbr1000 race bikes, he is left with a lot of stock parts that are not used on the race bikes. mikeymoto repaired the bike and sold it.....do you think a 2008 cbr 1000 with new 2011 bodywork, new subframe, new fairing stay ,new rear sets, new clips ons, new grips and new rims is going to be passed off as a bike that wasn't ever down??????? Its extremely stupid to think one could think that the bike was all orig in this state with all these components being replaced its almost a given.
And what makes me sick to my stomach is when someone trys to threaten mikeymoto by saying "Mikey, you messed with the wrong dude. **** just got real. This is just the beginning." ????
Maybe mikeymoto should of said this is the price ....if you dont like it shove it.... but no, he gave you options .....options that mikeymoto even told you to take the weekend and think it over, to make your mind up before you make a final decision. Wow this guy sounds like a scammer to me too!!!
Pretty much all mikeymotos business is based on referrals, its not new that mikeymoto will sometime buy salvage bikes now and then and sell them as track bike and/or part them out. And all of my customers are informed exactly what they are buying. When something is junk it goes in the garbage, when something is good it is kept. even with the wheel that was scratched up on the bike both were replaced with newer wheels.
Fyi I am mikeymoto so thats why i am so informed about this situation .....getting about 20 msgs from customers about some guy talking negatively about me on here because they know the whats being said is false.... i have always been an upfront guy with all my customers , and people that have ACTUALLY met me know what im about.... its crazy to think some people above that have never met or heard about me before have no problem making comments about how i do business and all of a sudden know how i operate my busnesses .
Its really unfortunate that murchy has gotten this vibe from me, about this situation and has the need for some type of retaliation because he felt he got scammed...
if that really was the case, i wouldn't of went out of my way to call and contact you repeatedly to touch base with you about the whole situation before it was one .
Try to help out a fellow rider and it goes to this extreme .... Sad
As promised, here is my response:
Yes i was notified about the bike. But, lets be clear here, I was notified after 1 month when i reached out to you to inquire about some maintenance stuff for the Daytona. But again, i don't care if the wholesaler did not show. Or even if he did, so you say. I have all the texts saved.
To someone that knows the difference between a 2008 and a 2011, yes they would wonder why the different body work and would ask the relevant questions. But to someone who does not know much about bikes but is in the market for a CBR, he wouldn't know a thing.
Again MikeyMoto, why did you advertise the bike with no indication that it was dropped? And the frame was tig welded? Etc etc etc....
This was bike was dropped twice. The frame repaired twice. Once by the previous owner and now by you. What about the dent in the gas tank? Nothing was mentioned.
Why are you hiding all this? To make a profit? I don't care how much $$$ you make on it. What i do care is, the honest individuals out there could get screwed because your ad seems like the bike is flawless.
It pisses me off knowing you a mechanic and providing a service to the public, yet you're so dishonest. What else have you done and gotten away with?
That screenshot i took of the ad sums this whole thing up.
Again, you keep harping on the fact that you gave me options. I agree on this, but don't stray. Stay focused on the real issue here. Why the lies in the ad?
Yes, we exchanged texts. Yes, we spoke on the phone. However, i still have not gotten a clear answer as to why the fake ad?
And please don't assume people supposed to know ****.
Just as additional info, I had someone go look at the bike in Woodbridge. The VIN is confirmed to be the same. As a matter of fact, i spoke to Tony (supposedly the new owner). And not once did he mention the bike was crashed. The strange thing is, he told me he bought it last Dec (lies). Then he back tracked and told me he bought it early spring(lies)...
He praised how clean the bike is. And it's in mint condition. In your text to me, you told me this dude had +50 bikes in his lifetime, yet he didn't even know much about the bike. Weird.
He failed to tell me that he bought it from MikeyMoto. In fact, he told me, he forgot the guys name - LOL.
Seems like this dude is selling the bike for you with all the lies.
