He decided that dealing with some members trash talkiing him wasn't worth it.

I personally rectified a prior incident when someone was disrespecting Brandon on this board.1man8scoots wrote:He decided that dealing with some members trash talkiing him wasn't worth it.
I have no clue to what you are referring that has happened to disrespect him a second time.
If Brandon has chosen to end his presence on this board, then so be it.
He probably has his hands full with the opening of a brick and mortar establishment.
All the best to Brandon.
Any of you who want to patronize Brandons' business already know where to find him.

It's a shame, but like Mike said, we know where to find him and know whats up.
It's funny how people run their mouth online, then in real life have nothing to say.
Let the kids run their mouths, it'll catch up to em.

Re: Where did graphite9 go?
Got him on my Facebook friends list. Only bother him for stuff he has sold me. Wish him all the best on his new storefront.
Re: Where did graphite9 go?
Haters gonna hate. Ya cant let a handful of bad experiences overshadow the thousands of positive ones. From what I understand, he started the business because he has a passion for scooters and enjoys building, tuning, riding and talking about them. I can only imagine the difficulties of being constantly asked for "hook-ups" and "deals" from the masses while also trying to run a profitable business. I personally have never had a bad experience with Brandon/SSS and have made multiple purchases. I also found it reassuring that his comments/recommendations come from hands-on experience with the products and not just guesses and hunches. Sure was nice to get advice from someone who has built 1000 scooters rather than 2 or 3. Ive done 15 or so and I still seem to learn something new on every one! G9 is a deep well of knowledge we can no longer dip our buckets into....bummer.

Re: Where did graphite9 go?
He let me ride his off-road pre-bug yesterday.
Followed him around SW Portland while he was riding wheelies.
(Doing a USPS run)
He is super busy with the store.

Re: Where did graphite9 go?
We had free tech support while he was here. It's hard to do that and run a store, esp. selling anything complicated. There's a reason I only sell filters and gaskets... they're inexpensive service parts, nearly impossible to screw up installation. Compare that with custom part like bore kits, ramp plates, etc... lots of potential buyer frustration. And with store running he'll have his hands full.

This is crazy. I've personally had nothing but good experiences with SSS and I send anyone with a honda or yammy to him.

Re: Where did graphite9 go?
Brandon is one of the best guys around for parts......a true asset.
He will be missed, but people who value what he has offered this group, as well as what he continues
to offer,... know how to find him.

Greetings:
Let me also endorse Graphie. Very knowledgeable, way beyond Spree, Aero and Elite 50 scooters. However he doesn't pretend to know everything. Maybe that's the smartest aspect of all.
