fungus Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 Well.....I've tried for the last year to keep things afloat. My job being outsourced has not been a really good thing for me. yeah i'm still working, but not making near what I was. It is with great difficulty, that I am being forced to file bankruptcy. That most likely means, I'll be losing my beloved Chief. I'm conniving right now on ways to sell it to a friend, who may let me buy it back later.... I'm not sure what if anything will work out. I'll stop by from time to time to keep in touch with all the great friends I've made here...and to those of you who have really touched my life...Thanks. You have no idea how hard it is to sit here and type this email. I wanted great things for the Miami Valley Chapter of the IIRA, but alas it is not to be...at least by my doings.....I wish all of you who are making the trek to IRIP a safe, and happy journey. May the Great Spirit always be with each and every one of you, and watch over you all each and every day of your lives. Fungus out.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pablo94 Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 Maybe everyone on the board send fungus 10 bucks and he can pay his Chief off. I'm in. P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fungus Posted May 17, 2005 Author Share Posted May 17, 2005 The Chief's paid off...its other bills that have been mounting up since the pay cut. And yes, I'm thinking of every way possible to keep the Chief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homer Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 damn fungus, i'm sorry to hear your chief got stolen! I'll keep my eye out down here for you. If there happens to be one just like it parked in my garage I'll make sure it's not yours...then since I have two, I'll give it to you in a few months after things cool off (weather wise of course).... :uhoh: eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest_ikonboard Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 Here is an idea. Indian ain't worth much. Get a (few) friends to "buy" it off you for .... let's say $8,000. It gets it out of your name, it is (at least looks) legit. Then you buy it back ASAP. I did that for a friend a few years ago. I had his bike for a few years then he bought it back for the same price. I had a bike to ride for a couple years only for the cost of up keep.

Scottdog Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 You might be able to keep it. I didn't have to sell my shit when I filed bankruptcy. Matter of fact, shortly after the dust settled, I went out and financed another car. Turned out I wasn't a risk because I had no debt and I couldn't file again for a number of years. Did you talk to a bankruptcy attorney yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuilderBoy Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 Good luck my friend. I don't ever want to ever want to be in a position that puts my Indian on the "block, thought it can happen to any of us at any time. I pray that good will come out of this for you.

fungus Posted May 18, 2005 Author Share Posted May 18, 2005 ScottDog...when I had the first initial interview with a paralegal I think...surely didn't act like a lawyer to me, she said I'd most likely lose the bike, as they (judges, courts or whatever) see it as a luxury vehicle.... LR...I'm working on just such a plan. I thought about telling them I sold it for 5 grand, because the motor had locked up...what proof do they have right?

LR...I'm working on just such a plan. I thought about telling them I sold it for 5 grand, because the motor had locked up...what proof do they have right? Here's the deal. I'll buy it for 6000 and I'll pay for shippin. I will hold it for 2 years and guarantee not more than 100 miles a year. At the end of 2 years you can buy it back for 6000 + shipping and any taxes that I had to pay. Of course this all hinges on some lawyer telling me this is legal. (my neighbor is a bankruptcy lawyer and will give me free advice). After two years, if you don't or can't take it back, well, its mine. You did say it was a Chief right? I don't want no Spirit rollin up. P.S. This would work better if you could do it locally, but if you have no other options let me know cause it ain't over till its over.

firebird77clone Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 I'll buy it for $100/mo, and pay shipping. Zero miles to be put on the scoot until it's paid off. You'll have a reposession clause, but of course, it will be up to you to do so. wink wink, nod nod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had an old Triumph sports car at the time and was told the same thing. I took it all apart and told them it was a restoration project. All of a sudden it was worthless in the courts eyes.

Blackhorse Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 I am bummed to see a loyal Iron Indian having to consider parting with the Chief. I'm hoping you come up with a last minute reprieve... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
