You may have accomplished you goal and effected change at Taffmeisters. Rumor has it that from now on anyone that purchases a used motorcycle must sign a disclaimer that agrees... if you make a warranty claim when the bike is way out of warranty and bitch and complain about it then you agree to never ride a Husaberg again and instead go find yourself a nice, undersprung, detuned, geared down XR 400 and go find a cow trail that leads far far away from here.

Sound good to me ...make sure he will also state what repair and what has actually been done (I don't want to fine anyone else been charge for 4 new valves when is getting 2) ...don't want to get back and forth on it ...get over it

I will work hard for this bike and I am looking forward to the next (taffy mistake ...and Paolo6 ) to come

I don't see how you were allegedly charged for valves when you purchased a used motorcycle...........whatever..............oh by the way you may be interested to know that I have taken a new part time management position with Taffmeisters...........
Customer Relations..............How may I help you?

Good luck

He said it was a fresh rebuild, now was the warranty for 1 second or 3?

Let me just check the paperwork, I think it's in the glove box.:confused2:

Hi all

And welcome to another lovely dispute at UHE !!!

Now this is going no were, as always I think this should have been solved in a common ground ... but I can imagine a couple of reason why it wasn't

Paolo, if you had the experience you should have known that is better to buy a cheap bike and do it yourself, at least you would know what you have, that is how I do it. And, as you are finding out, it's not cheap to do it right. BERGS are a bitch

Taffy, you shouldn't advertise bikes as mint when you know they aren't. We all know how much it cost to make them mint, that is how you make a living.
It takes a lot of money and time to change it all and to check it all. In parts and labour, you have to get a bike for almost nothing to sell it for 3000 and make a profit.
We all know that to sell a bike in a budget you have to cut some corners, some times you get away with it ... some times you don't.
When you don't you must try to solve the best way possible.

A bike like this I would sell it in a "good running condition", not as top rebuild engine.

I've bought things (not bikes) from Taffy without any problems, new and used, it wasn't always perfect, but it never is. When I wasn't happy with the deal I've complained and we always found a common ground to solve the problem.
I don't ride the BERGS as much as I used to, so I don't buy much for them, but if I would need some parts for them I wouldn't hesitate to go to Taffy again.

Now paolo is pissed, and I can understand, and trying to make as much damage as possible, but I think you have reached your goal, so by going on with this much longer won't make you more right or more happy, I think.
You have burned all the bridges with Taffy so you won't get any help from him and you have already made as much publicity as you can.

So, sorry my friend, but you didn't got the deal that you thought you had. You must move on, fix the bike and hope you can still enjoy it.


ZAGA

totally agree ...it will be fix it's getting right now

Zen....please

I don't want it cancel ...maybe block people to comment ...but no chance I will agree to have it deleted

Pretty sure Ned means just to lock it Paolo so no more comments.

Zaga does make a good point. I think we all have bought a lemon or too over our lives. Sometimes through naivety and sometimes due to nothing more than being apathetic.

In those cases I usually go for broke, I've already lost so why stop there. I might as well overcapitalise and go all out. It then becomes the bike you never sell because it owes you a ridiculous amount.

Paolo's detractors can alway start a 'Go fund me page' to help along and put an end to this and help out taffy. Win, win all round.

I do love this so much, we have a few who think Taffy is a God when it comes to service, magic beans and is the utmost best Husa tech in the world lmfao.

Paolo has a right to make his complaint verbal on this forum as we all do. Yes as Zaga noted he has burnt his bridge with Taffy (Who gives a F%^&K that his bridge is burnt) He will have many others here who will be more than happy to help him with any issues he has. As for selling someone a motorcycle with a "Rebuilt Engine". This was used a a marking tool to sell this machine and nothing more. HE RIPPED HIM OFF he lied to him and even worse, if you have any mechanical skills what so ever you will notice the damage is not from the motor failing but damage that was not fixed during the "Engine Rebuild"

This thread does not have to be locked. If you don't like it, then don't read it! I for one like the fact that it is up for other newbies to read to ensure they don't get a "Fresh Rebuild" or purchase a lemon sold by this *******.
Paolo is pissed and he has good reason. You have my support 100% and I am sure others who stay quiet in the background.
For those who are sleeping with the scam artist DONT READ THIS IF YOU DONT LIKE IT.

I have said before and will say again Taffy feels this Forum is all about him and a tool to market his products. This Forum is about helping others and not for personal gain.

Yes I know I will get a backlash on this from many of those Taffy followers, but when has it stopped me before.

Time for Taffy to stop scamming new users!

this is the problem IMHO

its called false advertising.

most of the time customers are not mechanically experienced or inquiring enough to notice or to able to check.. but that doesn't make any difference, false claims are still false.

ie cam chain that is "30%lighter and 30% stronger" than standard = BS its 6% heavier. tis a good chain so why the BS ?

i could go on but its not worth my time, false advertising is WRONG in anyone's books.

on this site there have been many husberg vendors besides taffy, none of them have a negative review anywhere because they are honest.

you reap what you sow, ie BS and insults .... oh **** look what happens

Hi

As I said before, I would prefer to buy a cheap bike and do it myself, but I understand that not everyone has the knowledge or the time to do it.

I've been buying used bikes all my life, almost never bought a new one, and even I sometimes get it wrong. Paolo probably didn't had the experience to do it also.

But, in this case, if I was Paolo, I would do it in a different way. When I noticed that the bike was not perfect, I would put it in Taffys front door and told him, "this is not how I want it, this is not how it's suppose to be, so open it a check what is wrong with it and then we will see how can we solve this problem".

I'm not from England, but once a friend asked me to buy a 470 from DCR. It was advertised as a running bike, not a fresh rebuild, so I warned him about BERGS, but he wanted to go forward anyway, and it was cheap.

Received the bike in a box after some adventures, put the bike together and didn't liked it, it was almost impossible to start, had the usual issues, specially with a 470.
Opened the engine and it was not good at all, it wasn't really a running bike, it was almost a not running bike.

So, talked with Dave and told him, I have a problem here, I know I didn't bought a perfect engine, but it was not suppose to be this bad. So now, since I opened it, I don't have the possibility to make a half decent engine, I have to make a perfect one. So can you help me with this ??

So we found a common ground, bought some parts, he offered others, and I was more then happy with the deal that we made. I was very well impressed with the attitude of Dave, since I was one guy on the other side of the ocean that he probably will never see again.

Again with Taffy I also had some problems, I confess I was furious some times, but changed some emails and solved the problems.

So this is me saying that some times things don't go as we planed, but is also important how you deal with the problem after the damage is done.
Also the vendors attitude dealing with the problems it's his best publicity.
