Welcome - Service centers in Milwaukee, WI?

Making my first post to the welcome center... Here it goes!

I purchased my first Triumph this year after riding Honda's my whole life, and I have to say I will never look back. I purchased a 2007 Speed Triple, amazing bike.

It is currently at the 16K mile mark, and according to the manual needs to have the valves checked and possibly adjusted. Does anyone know of a good service shop for Triumphs in the Milwaukee area? I would prefer some place that would also pickup the bike. Worst case I can rent a trailer and two it myself.

I have tried Schlossmann's, but every time I seem to call the guy who works on Triumphs is out and will call me back. This has been going on for two weeks now.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

Hi welcome to the forum. I don't know the Milwaukee area, so I'll move your question to the speed triple forum and see if anyone there has recommendations.

Not real close to you, but Team Triumph in Janesville is excellent.

This is the place you want to go to!
Yeah, it's not Milwaukee, but they're the best in the midwest.

+1 and had to update this older post. Great people and great service at all levels at this shop. Having them so close to home is just a bonus,they know their Triumph product and are the best at it.

I have had good luck with Team Triumph in Janesville too. I am in Tosa so it is not real close but don't know anyone closer. Have not been real impressed with Schlossman.

Theres also shoreline in kenosha. I dont beleive they do pickups, but you can walk a few hundred yards and have lunch at bob's while you wait.
