    Aye i bought some "extras" and only got the standard 10%, so i think this area could do with a little work, but overall a good place to do business i think.

    Maybe we could have a `sticky` to advise members of where to go for the best deals on aftermarket stuff???

    I've been dealing with Stephen at the Manchester dealership myself, seems like a good guy. i think he has a bit too much on the go as he got my bike and someone else's confused but it seems he's a pretty busy chap.

    Everytime I go the lads in the workshop aren't really doing much but I guess that could be a false perception.

    Haha I hope not! He got mine confused with a brand new one, mines not quite brand new.

    When he said about getting a reg number I was like "eh?" Lol

    Let's see how good these guys really I've had any used street triple 6 weeks and the cam chain needs looking at. Are they going to charge me even tho it's still under warranty .

    I recently bought my Speed Triple from the Manchester branch and, as others have said, the experience was really good. Steve Butler sold me mine and he's doing a deal for my missus on another one.

    Can't fault them so far but the test will be if there's any trouble to sort out in the future. Hope not!

    However, they've quoted me £70 for the Arrow cans remap which I'm told is steep so I'm going to shop around.

    Any suggestions welcome.

    Gled.

    I think that's steep even for a dealer. especially as I assume they are supplying it.
    Just as a comparison my friend who is a triumph specialist does them for free for his customers.

    Thanks t552,

    I'll call them and attempt to haggle a better price. If not I'll cancel the appointment and look elsewhere. I called a dealer in Yorkshire and they quoted up to £40.

    UPDATE: After a little haggling Youles did the Arrows remap for me at 10% discount so I went for it.

    The S3R is now running sweet as a nut.

    Gled.
