Baxter Cycle

Enough is enough. I am off @ 9AM for a 5 hour plus ride across Iowa to take my bike to a different shop. I bought the bike in Dubuque,Iowa and they jagged me around. I have had it serviced near Madison, Wisconsin and they replaced my secondary TPS with a new primary TPS. So, now I am off to have the upgrade T1000008 done at Baxter Cycle. I spoke with Gus on the phone and I haven't had that type of understanding and customer service since I talked with our own Travelguy. If thes folks treat me half as well as Sam did, I may have found a new dealership to work with. I am now having problems with the **** switch and second gear. They called Triumph and got it all aproved under warantee. (I am way out of warantee) I asked, "How much is this gonna cost me?". The response that I got was, "Nothing at all, Triumph is covering it". I am very hopeful that this may just be the type of place that I've been looking for. Wish me luck and I'll keep you all informed.

O.K. This place is :shock: . Motorcycles are cool and all but ****. I walked into their classic showroom area and got goose bumps and started going nuts. Gus is a real down to earth motorcycle guy. I talked with a local guy that had a new TTS on his bike. That fella is getting 80 miles before the low fuel light comes on. 80mph and it will lift the front end or roast the tire. Gus opened my upgrade kit and it was like freaking Christmas only better. My bike will be done for me to pick-up during their open house the 21st-23rd of August. To walk into a shop and not have to kick the **** Yamaha and Kawasaki motorcycles out of the way is fantastic. I could have stayed there for hours. My wife pulled my outta there :cry: . Now I just need to figure out how to get there and ride my bike home. My poor wife has put 1800 miles on her Chevy Tracker in the last week running me to get an R3 and following me to drop mine off. I think that she has had her fill of watching me ride.
