What are you trying to do, corner the Steamer market?
Thought about setting one up for dirt and one all pretty for touring. I like the idea of being able to swap parts if need be.

Come on...all you know about Steamers is from taking care of TWO! I learn by doing...and I have a short memory span...so I probably need 3 to really know anything at all.

move along ..nothing to see here ... :ImaPoser
I need triplets !
Guys, I'm out of the running. Just mailed a check off to secure a pristine 2000 Guzzi Quota. Black like the Tiger. Fly & Ride coming up next week.
Don't want to hijack this thread,
I spoke to the owner of this tiger he was very forthcoming with info about the bike. I believe it to be solid and a great deal.
This would be all over If I had not been longing to taste some Italian Kool-Aid.
Now all I have to do is explain to the Bride why I have two Black bikes torn apart in my garage that I can't get stuff for. But man, they are both works of art.
Good Luck With Your Sale;

OINK OINK ! :ImaPoser
No fly and :5moped am taking the truck , too many xtras to bring home ! hehehe
and seeing how it's a crew cab I can use her like a motel room :wink:
I crew cabbed mine back from Lousiana along with a couple sacks of fresh oysters. Yummaaayy!
I like the "rent to Andy" bit! Good idea! If I'd thought of it I wuld have tried to rent your Scrambler before you sold it! I guess this is why I eventually need to buy a 2nd bike (a working one that can go on the highway. 34 year old Spanish 2T with trials tires may be street legal, but....).
AndyB, NH.
She's gone. :(
Quote from: "tigerrider"She's gone. :(
What are you going to replace her with?
It's sad on one hand...but after that time it got hit in the parking lot and bent the frame I wouldn't feel comfortable riding it either. Still can't figure out how it caught on fire...strange... :D

LOL! As if! No idea what will replace her for my solo ride. Maybe I'll start looking for a tagged DRZ-E.
Wow! Posted on the 7th and gone by the 12th. Looks like a fine example of a well-taken-care-of Steamer with nice extras and what I would consider a good price too. I'm wondering if this is any indicator of the current demand for the late model Steamers or just a case of a good clean bike quickly finding a buyer. Just wondering... :wink:

Tigers are not like puppy dogs they don't like to ride in the back of trucks , so I had to calm the girl down and make her think she belonged in the back of a pick up .................................

They both love to ride in trucks !(http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee47/2uoykcuf/emoticons/laugh.gif)
