'My Moto Guzzi Quota was stolen last night (Saturday 22 August 2015) from East End Motor Sports on Highway 70 in East Asheville/Swannanoa NC. Please keep an eye out. Don't buy a Quota in the next few weeks without checking the vin. Please feel free to share.'


I believe it was in a shop for service when it was stolen. I don't know much more.
Odd thing to try to steal and hide.

Weird, Asheville I a very nice town but it does have a large junkie/crackhead contingent. Only thing I can think is some drug-f*cked idiot took it opportunistically and doesn't realise what the hell it is! I really can't imagine there is a huge market anywhere for fenced Quota parts!

Vasco knows about about roller cams but he certainly doesn't know shit about Asheville??

Sucks about the bike, I've seen it at Wedge before...  Sadly I don't think you'll ever see it again... Once the thieves realize what they got.. It will be dumped in a deep ravine or dropped in the river... Or stashed out in the woods.

This is a red one right?
