I'm considering buying a Sprint RS.

My dilemma: I currently reside in NJ but will be moving about 150 miles south to Delaware late this year.

I've thought about buying from a DE dealer rather than one in NJ but wonder if, should I do so, would I basically have to turn around and ride back for the first service if I rode it home?

Thank you.

Ned

if the RS is like the ST, first service is at 600 miles to change oil and any adjustments. Then at 3000,6000,12,000 ect. Not much to any of these that you cannot do youself, aside from "valve adjustments". This is recommended at 12,000 miles. Many riders do it more often.

Marty:

Are you suggesting I visit Manayunk Triumph? I have read several favorable comments about them but have not been there.

According to "Mapquest" right now I'm about 50 miles from them and will be about 85 miles away once I relocate.

The dealer in Dover, DE would be about 5 miles from my new residence but I know nothing about them.

Ned

P.S. Sorry about the "fOrst" in the question.
