That's terrible.

I took my bike back to them a few weeks ago, the front end of the bike felt completely wrong and I couldn't pin the problem. I suspected it was the headstock being too lose. They ended up telling me that it was the front tyre not being installed correctly, though i didn't really agree with it i left assuming they weren't going to look at it any further.

I ran it past the tyre joint i had it installed at and they looked at it. There was nothing wrong with the tyre, other than it being under-inflated a little (shocked that procycles didn't check the tyre pressure, i'd been relying on my local petrol station's meter being correct - my bad).

Took it to Bikebiz Triumph on the weekend, took 10 mins look at it and picked up on the suspension settings being incorrect (one of my neighbours has been farking with my bike, methinks).

Sounds a lot like the service I had on my last Ducati at Fraser's Ducati City in Melbourne (as well as them installing the timing belt wrong and making my valves and pistons becoming close friends).
Just bought a new Bonneville from City Triumph (Peter Stevens) Melbourne and so far so good. Good sales and first service and a few tweaks done pretty well.

Took my SprintGT to get the fuel sender unit replaced under warranty. I didnt buy it from them ( Bikebiz) , they looked at it and put the warranty claim in and except for a mix up in the correct way to put the warranty claim in, all good. It took about 30 mins to fit the sender unit. All the staff,workshop and spares are friendly and seem interested in bikes etc. I will be taking the GT for its 20k service to Troopers.

Bikebiz Granville

Hi all,
I brought my 2011 Tiger 800 XC in Jan 2013 second hand with 4000k on the clock, and just wanted to let you all know that after a lot of worry and thought about who to get to do my 10k service. I went with Bikebiz Granville.
Great service and advice.
Very Very Happy.
