How stupid can you be?

My old Griso now owned by Greg Field in Seattle has been stolen from out the back of Greg's place!

I mean it's a salvage titled shitter with the early A5 motor so it sounds like cheese graters fornicating in an iron tank it's eight years old and probably has a street value slightly above a bucket of cold dog turds.

Stealing it from Greg's place was doubly unwise! I'm surprised he didn't get a round from one of Greg's flintlocks up his chuff!

Anyway, if anybody sees or hears of a load of red Griso bits being hawked on the bay of fleas or Craigslist or whatever, especially in the North West, can you let the wallopers know.

Thanks.

Pete

I predict it will turn up, a bit worse for wear, and abandoned.

How does one steal a Griso? I was a Concrete Construction laborer for more than a decade so I'm used to lifting heavy odd shaped objects and pushing concrete wheel barrels in dirt but when I pushed my Griso uphill someone didn't read the trip odo right twenty yards I had to stop for "air".

It would take more than one skinny teen, 6-8 might be enough.

Could be an inside job.

If it's such a piece of crap, it looks like they've gotten what they deserve.

Yea..look for it returned back on his curb.

A lesson in economics 101.. you can't trade Guzzi parts for crack.

They were determined. The fork was locked, it was chained to a fence, and the battery was removed for charging. They must've had enough guys to pick it up and throw it into the back of a truck. If anyone hears anything, let me know.

sorry to hear it.

Not sure if it feels worse to get ripped off by a pro or an idiot- you're out just the same. Hopefully your homeowner's will cover it.

best of luck to get your wheels

Very sorry to hear Greg.

That bike has had a hard life. Hope it doesn't get chopped up.

Sorry about the Griso. God I hate thieves!!! Lowlife suns-a-bitches!

Maybe something positive will come from all of this. Good luck.

Oh, man.. I hate thieves too. That includes... oh never mind.

I certainly wouldn't to want to piss off GF, though..

Not a good idea...

Fortunately, it's only a machine..

Oh now you've done it!! That's like hearing someone's girlfriend got hit with the ugly stick and you can't wait to see her now.

gnorts · « **Reply #18 on:** July 14, 2015, 11:31:05 PM »

Easy to roll the bike away, even with locked fork, disc lock, etc. It just takes two guys and two skateboards.

He said it was chained to a tree!

Battery angle grinder and cutoff wheel makes a quick 10 seconds work of that unfortunately.

charlie b · « **Reply #21 on:** July 15, 2015, 04:27:39 PM »

And that means they were prepared to steal something that day.

Liquid nitrogen and a hammer. Sorry for you. I had a childhood friend who stole from me. We have not conversed in 45 years.

What will the insurance pay towards the theft? I would not want to be sneaking around Greg's place trying to steal something, or my place for that matter. Lead is cheap
