The Carpenter bikes are powerful and fast as hell. I had the 240 job done on the 2077 R3 I owned. After about 7000 miles the bike had a bent INTAKE valve which Carpenter fixed for $2400. A short time later the bike would not start easily and was breaking up terribly. I actually gave the buyer back $2500 for his expenses to diagnose and fix the problem. Interesting that Carpenter had to MAKE a replacement valve because Triumph only sells valves by the set!
Carpenter could, also, never seem to get either the AFR or timing spot on. The bike always pinged until I brought it to someone who could download the ECU program and tune it.
Carpenter is a true MASTER mechanic and but not problem free and quite expensive.
