HI
i just signed up, i thought i would help out using this forum. i have a 2002 daytona, i bought it last year. its my first real bike and i love it. anyway, i was wondering if there was a maintenance manual for it. i dont very much like warranties, im a dyed in the wool DYI'er (i cant help it, its genetic). but i do like to know what im doing. i have found some manuals from haynes, but if they are like the car manuals (good but not very indepth), id rather look around for something anologous to a robert bentley book. also, im not sure they covered 2002 models. oh, and where are you all getting your non-Triumph daytona specific mod parts? ive looked at a lot of parts sites and they didnt have to much for triumphs let alone an 02 dayt. im looking for more aftermarket parts, ive got all the official parts catalogs.

thanks,
cory

Hi Cory,

Check out LOTS O STUFF for Triumphs at the Jack Lilley web site, and the Sky Kink website. There are many others - just start poking aroung the web. There's a Web Links link on this site's main menu, and also there are some good links in the Triumph section of www.webbikeworld.com. Also, a google search for Triumph Accessories will probably provide a lot of hits.

Have fun!

I got'ta agree with JB. Jack Lilley is the way to go. And don't be put off by the fact that they are across the pond. Their service puts alot of our local dealers to shame.

Amen on the great service from Jack Lilley. Come to think of it, other than MG Cycle in Wisconsin, for Guzzi parts, have had my best luck with folks in the UK for Guzzi and Triumph goodies, and Italy for Guzzi goodies.
Customer service in the US pretty much sucks across the board.

I second the Jack Lilley vote, but will add Great Bay Motorcycles in New Hampshire to the list. Very fast, friendly service. Big inventory too.
