Joedirt · January 06, 2006, 09:04:39 AM

Yeah that is just crappy.....I was out having a drink in PSL last night and a guy had a brand new King Quad in the back of his truck....1 tie down strap..and the keys were in it!!!!....he was drinking in the bar I guess...brand new Quad.....people make it easy to steal... BUT In your case....that is pretty rotten...

if you find any info out send me a pm and i will be more than glad to go with you to this guys house and beat the living %$#@ out of him and get your bike back.

Do you have a pic of it to post on here. Maybe a vin. number. People need to know what to look for.

qt314nfla · January 06, 2006, 11:41:11 AM

It is a rule of thumb that when I sell something if they want to ride it they have to give me what I'm asking for before they ride. After they come back is when negotiating starts.

Looks like it's going to come down to taking pics of ppl, vehicles, plate numbers, and finger printing them just in case.

I hope you get it back and they pay dearly for their actions. I keep reading this post hoping to hear a good out come. It's a hard lesson to learn but thanks for posting it so maybe others will learn from it.

Sorry for your loss

This is a very old scam

enniehall · January 06, 2006, 01:32:43 PM

If the police are no help try doing a search on dogpile or just google the info you have. I was involved in an accident with my truck I had a bit more info than you did but when I searched what I had online you wouldn't belive how quick we found my guy. If it's no help the police should have public records might be able to find something in there. Did the guy give you his name or anything?

Ida_Mann · January 06, 2006, 05:45:51 PM

I can only hope that the lack of posting here means you are in process of getting your quad back.

Bluesman,

On a more serious note, no one wants to be reminded of how myopic in vision they were to not see this scam coming. So try not to remind the poor guy about the fact that he got taken. Instead we should all try to empathize with him. Believe me I do empathize with you.
Make no mistake, unless you were aware of this scam before hand, this could have easily happened to anyone on this board. What I would like to say is thank you. Thank you for informing me of something to be leary of, when it comes time to sell my own bike. I do hope sincerely, that you do retrieve your property.
I ride often in Homestead so I will keep my eye out. If you would like to PM me the information on your bike so that I can determine if its down this way please feel free.

Also as an aside, Dr Bones maybe a small post about the different scams that thieves and matchstick men use to steal quads would be appropriate in the for sale forum would be aprapos.

i think what DZ 350 meant was, that he knows of people that do that, not personally though. I think he has heard of them doing but doesnt really know them just seen them around. Idk

Maybe it's time to call up Mr. T AND Chuck Norris.
