Recalls: Can't a man find a decent Triumph dealer?
I made an appointment at Atlanta Triumph Ducati to take care of my rear drag bold recall which came out in January of 07. I bought my 2006 Sprint brand new from the Allsport Motorsports in Dectur, AL in August of 07 unaware of any recalls. When I learned of the read drag bolt recall, I called Allsport to make sure it had been taken care of. They assued me it had. Fastforward to a couple of weeks ago. I get a notice in the mail about a recall on the top box luggage plate. I call Atlanta Triumph Ducati and give them my vin. They see the drag bold recall in addition to the top box plate. I make an appointment and drive 200 miles on a Saturday to get it fixed. They kept me there for 2 hours and told me they didn't have the part. They apologized for the mistake and then proceeded to charge me 28 bucks for my chain adjustment! The next Saturday I rode the 200 miles with a 60 percent chance of rain the whole way. Problem solved. They also replace four bolts that were corroding under my grab rail. Woe is me. Thanks Atlanta Triumph Ducati. The good news? I missed the rain.
