Hi All

I've just moved from London to Cambridge and there are no local Triumph dealers at which to get my Sprint 1050 serviced. Bad news. The Triumph website lists those pasted below as possibles... can anyone recommend or warn against any of them?

Many thanks, Paul

North City have been excellent for me in the past and if they weren't quite so far away I'd use them.

Pure Triumph may not be around much longer. Their owners, Autohaus, have gone into receivership and as of yesterday Pure didn't know if they'd still be in a job by the end of the month. They are unable to buy parts etc as their accounts are in Autohaus's name.

I never had any problems with work done by On Yer Triumph on my last S3 - very good service in fact.

I wouldn't trust Webb's (Peterborough) to put petrol in my bike.

... many thanks!

Hi Paul,

I'm in the same town. All these are non-Triumph specialists so may not be what you want, but-
Have been told Haywards are good, Allins were said to be OK, heard good and bad about Cambridge Bike Breakers... There's also Wheelfit in Waterbeach. I get tyres & tickets from them.
But as a DIYer I've not used any on them myself for servicing.

I know a guy in NW London who is Triumph trained, works out of a small shop, but known him yrs and trust him. Depends where you are but say 45-50 miles away

cheers
Bill
