So I live in Williamsburg and am looking for a place to get the bike serviced as local as possible. I just got my 500 service and the dealer (Triumph NYC) charged me $300+ and it hurt. I got my rocker cover gasket replaced under warrenty as well. The whole thing was not a pleasant experience...
Please help, Brooklyn!

Friggen Crooks! I just bought mine last Tuesday and they quoted me $150 for the first service! Stay away from Triumph NYC!

They work on vintage scooters and motorcycles. Their specialty is Lambrettas, hence the name, but there is always one or two Triumphs hanging around and being worked on. In fact, just stopped by there on my way from work.
Cheers.

Thanks for the tip 'Dude'!
Ditto on TriumphNYC. I believe they are too used to Ducati customers willing to pay a mint for service. Not me!
Anyone else got any good mechanic's?
Thanks
