Wrecka experience is that the time will come when your bike will need work you (and I and most of the others) are not capable of carrying out. Were it me I'd be sussing out ways to get my bike to repairer you are confident in. Like I said Brissy has two specific bike carriers and with a bit of a shove sure Triumph would cover any transport costs .

Was only trying to share my experiences mate.... and failure to me would be trying to do a job I knew I was unskilled to undertake and f#cking something up good and proper.
