My companys website blocks it. Maybe the website has been hacked, so they have taken it offline.

This guy is trying to get in touch with them to see where his parts are for a 3MA he purchased off them a year and a half ago. The bike was in the same container as mine. He says he cant contact them at all. Has anyone been in the shop lately, its been almost a year since I passed that way.

sounds ominous... if youve called their phone and the site is gone, thats not a good sign...

Im not local or I would go and have a look for you. But sound like your friend needs to go and looksee if he's missing parts or money.

He lives in SA so dropping by is not an option for him. I have not been over that way for months.

Scotts seemed to have some tie in with Retro bikes mag (supplied bikes and stories i think), maybe drop them an email and see if they know anything?
