Well ....I have been writing off the frum with dicko ....because we have nearly the same problems! My 1999 Thunderbird was PERFECT! My 2002 has been crap! Only 3500 problem-filled KM::::not MILES! ...and the best I can say, is that Triumph have extended the waranty until the problem(s) are diagnosed and resolved! Has been in the Nicosia shop for months at a time....fixed? Nope, get it back and while the mechanic/gopher watches, I start the bike....it runs for 2 minutes, amid smailes....and then stops..............
It has now been put on a ship and sailed away to another shop....a Triumph-designated expert, who should be able to fix it. I 'phoned them after them having it for 2 weeks......but they hadn't had time to look at it!!!!!!!!!!!
Depressing............yes...........
Still....my desire is to get it in perfect shape and sell it. So I can buy another Triumph. I KNOW it is a fluke and that the general quality is good......I know that when it is fixed, it is fixed, but I have "gone off it." I cannøt get pleasure from this particular bike anymore...it has given me too many headaches!
