Here is the most recent maintenance schedule of which I am aware for the Sprints. Please let the moderator know if a more recent one becomes available.
Is there something wrong with my computer or do I have something set wrongly?
I am unable to view any "Attached files"
They don't auto load as they used to - I just get another page with a link to a GIF and a black window.
I am not having problems with any other sites, forums.
I can do this on other sites, maybe a site setting?
I wanted a Service schedule for a 2009 Sprint ST 1050 that has up to 5 years. I have an old one I had used before and ticked off the items that has 5 years. The pages are from a manual and the page numbers are 65 and 66. Dammed if I can find where I got that from. 30k service due.
I have question:
The maintenance schedule in my GT handbook is what has to be done by dealer right?
I went ahead and dropped it off at other dealer for the 12k mile service (i am at 16k) and they didn't do the coolant flush or rear wheel and steering bearing lubrication that is mentioned in handbook?! I didn't realize it until i got home (my bad), when i called he said that it isn't part of it on their schedule?? Sounds fishy.
I don't trust most dealers. Had one charge me for the valve clearance check on my VFR but it was obvious the covers hadn't been disturbed. I checked then myself about 5k later and 10 were out of spec so needed adjustment on the next check i did, they were all bang on.
Interested to know what the view (especially US) is on oil changes? Triumph says 6k miles or annual. I don't do that many miles so change annually. With the US obsession for 3k oil changes in cars, do any of you actually leave it to 6k?
I do it every 6k miles.
I communicated with Triumph of america.
Their reply was: yes, everything in the book is suppose to be done. If they have any questions they can call them.
I am still so pissed that they insulted me by saying it was not on their 12k service program.
Now I have to call them, probably have them say it will be more money which i refuse because they said they did the 12k service. I would have to bring my bike back to them (30mn away) be picked up and then go back again, I don't know if i want to deal with it and trust them.
Thanks Kit and all. Great to see you still in the picture. I lost touch a few years ago due to password frustrations. I am back with the same bike "03 ST. With a lot more kms on it. Still a great bike. Looking forward to hobnobbin' again. - Jim
The news today the Kit died Monday was a shocker and hit me a bit harder than I'd expect. I'm not going to pretend I knew him well. I've not met him in person. But since we are both on the moderator team we interacted that way, and I liked him. We were bantering just last week with dark, cynical...
