I forgot I had this... (Ducati content)
« on: February 24, 2018, 02:24:32 PM »
In the late '90's they gave you a silver coin when you bought a new Ducati, I forgot that I had this one. From what I'm seeing online, it's solid sterling silver. Anyone else have one?

  I don't know if this counts but we got this from Chrysler Corp in 1991 during their Customer bill of Rights campaign. Bought a LeBaron Convertible for the wife and got their .999 Silver coin. God Bless Lee Iacoca.

I went down to Atlas Cycle when BMW was giving away BMW logo Swiss Army knives when you took a test ride. I told Richard Cranium to give me a knife. He said , "You have to ride the bike to get the knife." So I said, "OK, I'll burn your gas AND take the knife." He knew I was not buying, (Guzzi content) so he handed me the knife.... :grin:

Why in the world would you turn down a free ride on a brand new BMW?   :huh:

Got one with my '97 Supersport.  I seem to remember that they made an error on the back of it...a wrong year for one of their WSB championships...any one confirm this?

I got a bottle of wine with Moto Guzzi engraved on it when I bought my '93 Daytona 1000.  Still have it.

I'll see if I can pull it out of the archive.  Got it from Dave's Cycles in Mesa, AZ.
