I will be in the process of moving back to Valrico Florida recently bought an 06 Sprint. Does anyone know of a good Triumph mechanic in the greater east Tampa area? The bike has 11k miles and I may have a mechanic perform the 12k service. Thanks for any suggestions.

There is no Triumph specific mechanic in the Valrico, Brandon area that I know of. I live just south of Brandon in Riverview and ride 50 miles to Hap's in Sarasota for service.

Haps's sells and services Triumph, BMW and Honda and has been servicing my BMWs since 1991 and now my 2006 Triumph Tiger. Their service is good and their rates are fair.

You can check them out at http://www.hapscycle.com/

Ask for Bob in service and tell him Brooks sent you.

+1 on Hap's. Always hear good things about them.

Another alternative is in St Pete. St Pete Powersports. Two of the three service guys are really good. The third is new and I don't know him. Prices have always been fair. Don't know if that has changed since they got in new management. If you call ask for Drew, he is head of service dept.

Euro Cycles in Odessa (Tampa) will cost you an arm and a leg. Service is very expensive.

Thanks for the replies. I think that I'll hit Haps. Once I get on I-75 it isn't much of a ride down to Sarasota.
