Blackkat Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 I bought the Rosso Corsa from the dealer in Wichita and would like to know if anyone has actually seen the thing. Having it shipped to me next week. Thanks, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Kalal Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 I bought the Rosso Corsa from the dealer in Wichita and would like to know if anyone has actually seen the thing. you mean this very Rosso Corsa that you're buying? I think I have, but I couldn't swear that it is the one you're getting. Is there some concern that all is not what it should be? Not to worry, Bob Troxel is as good a dealer as you'll find. He'll treat you right. Daniel (Wichita) Here's the only picture I could find that I took inside the shop (I had forgotten that Mike said I could have that MGS01 banner if I wanted it--I need to take them up on that) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having it shipped to me next week. Thanks, Tom 62979[/snapback] I've seen it in person. It's a beut. That dealership has an excellent reputation, so no worries. I heard it was on sale. Did you get a good price? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you get a good price? 62981[/snapback] We did some e-mail haggling and he came down to $10,800.00 and I considered flying in and riding it home but I only save about $200 bucks and loose two days riding the slab. Doesn't seem to be worth the torture. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel (Wichita) I have talked to Bob a couple of times and I offered him my credit card to hold the bike while I searched for a cheaper shipper than Federal(there isn't) and he said not to worry. He sounds like a nice guy. Am I worried? Not really but there is always that concern when you write the check and send it off. Then again I bought all three and now four of my Guzzi's sight un-seen. Hate to break a tradition. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

callison Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 I considered that very same bike and decided to stick with obtaining a Breva 1100 from the same dealer. Beginning to wonder though, if the Big Breva will ever make it to a dealer in the USA. Should it not, I'm considering a Ural hack. Or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackkat Posted October 18, 2005 Author Share Posted October 18, 2005 blackkat . . . did you buy another bike? ebay V11 63288[/snapback] Yes and no. I purchased the bike and then got an e-mail from the Wichita dealer informing me that he would sell the Rosso at my asking price. I e-mailed the owner of the 00 Sport and asked him if he would consider some monetary compensation for cancelling the sale and if not I would keep my word and purchase his bike. We went back and forth and he seemed happy with the conclusion even though his current ad does not reflect our converstion. I hope he sells the bike because it looks real clean with low miles. They pick up the Rosso today and I will get the bike November 2nd or 3rd. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is dazzling to behold, and the fairing really adds value. I have a spare cf sport mini-fairing if I ever want to go naked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
