Sweet Lord!! I like my rocket. I need a shop that can work on it.
I used the triumph dealer finder. I called and talked to the service department three separate times about needing the valves, cam chain, cam chain adjuster checked. I explained that i would be making a 425 mile round trip so i needed a dedicated mechanic to do the work in one day.
I was assured that it could be done.
I jump through hoops to be there by 0830 (trailering the bike so the engine would be cold). The guy at the service desk fills out the work order and assures me he has a good man standing by to get it done.
I go to the waiting area. Just before lunch, the service guy comes to me and says they wont get it done that day because they dont have any gaskets. It will be three days to get gaskets.
This "dealer" doesnt keep triumph parts in stock. They order them as they need them.
I drove home and will be making another 425 mile trip hopefully next week.
Someone please recommend an old school motorcycle shop. Within vicksburg- shreveport/littlerock-monroe area.
