Interesting, this is the same bike that was listed twice last year for sale. Description is exact down to the shorter bars and dyna and mileage. http://www.ngwclub.com/forum/viewtopic. ... 81#p584281

This is a Matson family deal and I would bet hard money it is a rip off in some way. These people should be neutered so they can not continue this for generation after generation. Last I knew the Father was in Jail and the Son was carrying on the family business of being Thieving VERMIN.

Are there any web pages about this guy?

Not that I am aware of. I know the Father is John Matson, Sons Josh and (Jeffrey I think). There were a number of nick's tossed around like hogwing, and vikingcycles,

I asked as I've seen the name listed here a few times and wondered what the story was.

My first experience with him was in 06 he was a member and was selling a 4 into 1 header system. I sent him a Postal Money order and never got the pipe, Turned out at the same time he had accepted money from Octane. Of course Octane never saw the pipe either. Once we found out each other had been ripped off we started looking. I called the Cops up there and they knew him personally and almost laughed when I told them what happened. Basically they said "sucks to be you" with a snicker. I talked to the ADA here and there and it was not enough money to get anything done about it.

Here is page 1 of the Father's current rap sheet in the one court system. http://wcca.wicourts.gov/pager.do;jsess ... ction=DESC

Someone needs to send them a really ugly "message" forcing them to "see the light" and modify, once and for all, their shady business practices. Anybody for a road trip? Hehe.

Bike sold for over $9,000.00 Be interesting to see if it is listed again in the future.

You sure about that?

EBay says" "Bidding has ended on this item. The seller has relisted this item or one like this. ".

The bidding ended at $9230 and it wasn't sold. This whole story sounds pretty bizarre. Too bad that there are people like that out there.
