Anybody here the person who is having Hooligan Cycles sell their Eldorado and Griso motorcycles?

Well, new motorcycle deserves new enclosed trailer. Actually a used 2022 Haulin 5x8 aluminum lightweight trailer. Used 1 time for 1 trip. Stored covered in heated barn since.

It looks like I literally bought it from the dealer today. The inside wood smell is that new wood smell.

Paid asking price: 50% of new 2023 retail price. In the time I called and showed up cash in hand, they said like 9 people called to buy it. It was the deal of the century on a trailer.

So so so Blessed.

Fantastic! So nice you got a great deal on the trailer. You must be saying your daily prayers like the rest of us!

Nice trailer, but I suspect the original owned couldn't afford to keep gas in his tow vehicle.

Nah. They used it just one time to move stuff to their get away home down south and that was all. The property I picked it up from was very swanky and in the country surrounded by natural woods. They had plenty of money and a brand new top of the line red Jeep Grand something or other. I don’t like Jeeps so I don’t know the model but it’s in the photos. They just had no further need for it and wanted it out of their RV barn.

I loved their house location. It was really nice. Lots of trees and wildlife. My kind of place.

Amen to that! Trees and wildlife! Open spaces! This is why we ride!
 
And the plot thickens… 😝

I have to stop surfing Cycle Trader at 1am when I get insomnia.

Found this just 61 miles away.



2016 Ducati Hyperstrada 939

950 Original miles.

LIKE-NEW SHOWROOM CONDITION.

Well, I very well couldn’t take the new (used) trailer to TN without a shake down cruise could I?

So what does one do at a time like this?

Yep…

Bought for $0.50 on the $1.00 of brand new for a tiny 950 miles (and 7 years age).

What an E-ticket ride. Given that my last Ducati was a 996, this thing is unbelievable. What a hoot to ride!!!

Oh brother, your "condition" got really escalated.... I believe my illness doesn't show symptoms like your because I haven't found a wealthy cougar yet...

THERE IS NO CURE! The only suitable medicine is the adrenaline rush from riding!
 
In Murfressboro, TN at the hotel. I swung by Holligan Cycles and to my shock, at 8pm, they were still there! I pulled in, apologized for popping in early, and they were totally cool and the bike was waiting for me. She’s safe and sound in the trailer now. Ready to go home and be loved.

Let me tell you something, “Gee” the Big Sales Dude at Holligan, is a totally honest straight shooter. He told me the bike was awesome, and that was the understatement of the year.

This motorcycle looks like it rolled out of the assembly room in Mandello, 10 minutes ago. It is truly MINT CONDITION. What a catch.

Now, this gentleman who sold this Eldorado motorcycle, is selling all of his 5 or 6 motorcycles at Holligan. He apparantly has a Thai girlfriend and is moving to Thailand to get married and retire. (I didn’t have the heart to tell him about Thai women and several of my Navy buiddies who got screwed over royally just like this…Oh well. I wish him happiness! Maybe it will be different for him). ANYWAY…

This guys motorcycles are SURGERY ROOM SPOTLESS and MINT condition. This guy gives anal retentive a whole new level I’ve never seen before in my life. They must have lived in his living room. He has a Ducati Panagale right at the front door, that is the very nicest one I have ever seen by far.

If you are looking for the absolute best 8V Griso, his is a 2014 Griso, and let me tell you, that motorcycle, like all of his others, is ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS. I’ve never seen it’s equal in the used marketplace. It also looks like it rolled out of the factory 10 minutes ago. I mention this bike here only in case anybody is looking.

Contact “Gee” at Holigan Cycle. Tell him, Scott sent you!

NOTE: (I have no interest in this bike and I do not know the owner, and I just met “Gee”. I’m just telling you that anybody who knows me, will tell you that I am PICKY AS HELL about my motorcycles, and these are the nicest used motorcycles I have ever seen. Period.)

The seller is asking $7,000 but I can tell you, he will probably bend some.

You will never find another Griso like this one in this condition. Truly.

I didn‘t take these photos and I tell you, just like my Eldorado, no photo can possibly capture precisely how PRISTINE this guys motorcycles are. He is anal and fastidious like nobody I have ever met. It’s really impressive.

So back to Ohio with my Eldorado tomorrow. Cannot wait to run her around the block secretly. I have to wait for the TN title which should be coming in about 3-7 days. Agony!!! :D

Rode this lovely Eldorado today for the first time.

What a magnificent motorcycle. I love her! So glad I bought this motorcycle because what a joy it was to ride and I’m looking forward to many miles of smiles.

Somebody pinch me…I feel so damn giddy! Retired, and giddy!!! :D
 
Congratulations on your purchases Scott :)
is that 12 ? 15 ?? Now.

But I think we’re going to need to have an Intervention :rofl:

There was one on those Ducati at a local shop that Raven was interested in, new old stock, but they were looking to get $14k

That was a 2016 MV Agusta Turismo Veloce. It eventually sold with no warranty, NOS after 6 years.

Only 11.

Done for now as there is no more room at the Casa.

But, Scott, if you got ONLY ONE MORE MOTORCYCLE, you could ride one for a month and ride a different one the next month, and the next month, and the next..., for a FULL YEAR, then start over. Surely you see the logic of this.
