Dealers Disappearing....

Is this the place just north of Research Forest on 45 on the east side?? When did they start carrying Triumph? That means we have three in Houston-area.

They just brought Triumph in about a month or two ago. Their techs weren't even trained yet when I stopped in a month ago.

We bought the Street Triple in Austin, had the first service done @ British USA on the south side. Bought my Rocket from the dealer in Katy and will never go back.

Man I've got a couple dealers in Atlanta (plus corporate in middle ga). Though as you guys have seen the service isn't very impressive

With my 05 getting old and no dealers to help it may be time to trade my Rocket for a Native American

Seems as if Triumph has their head stuck in a dark place!

Triumph are still very strong in Tennessee; Castle Powersports in Nashville (they sell KTM, Honda, and BMW but Triumph is their premier/premium brand i'm told)and Pandora's in Chattanooga

Triumph are dictating to dealerships to become more of a boutique store. They are pushing in the UK for sole agent Triumph only including rider wear etc. Maybe the same over there.

I don't want boutique i want concrete floors with oil stains and a grumpy mechanic with gnarled hands from wrenching that's deaf from riding.

Here in Christchurch NZ the Triumph Dealer lost his dealership and a dealership which dealt in Indians and Victorys picked it up. I think the fact that they are a very well established car dealership with this motorcycle dealership as well, had alot to do with it. Triumph have a "look" they want and the shop has to comply...you need a bit of coin to set that up. Our Dealership is very smart looking and the guys and girls there are great...there is a good range of bikes and gear to browse thru..

Can't add to your Triumph experience, but they know their BMWs. I bought my K1300s from the local county sheriffs action. While doing my due diligence about keys, they were the only Houston dealer who knew their stuff and could explain how to get a key if the motorcycle didn't come with one.

My one dealing with British USA was good. Long haul from my place to them, but so far the only dealer my Triumph will go to... in Houston that is
