oldschoolsdime92 Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 I need to get the 12k service done on my 05 sprint, but the valve check is the portion of it, that I don't particularly have time to do myself at this point. Does anyone have any recomendations as to a shop, who will do a good job? I've never had a shop do work for me, as I've always done my own. Thanks in advance!

Casper Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 I've had good luck at Motohio. Pony is a Triumph dealer too. Never had any work done there though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
what Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 (edited) I had my 24k done at Motohio and I wont be bringing my bike(s) back there again. Lots of little no-brainer things that they failed to do... like tighten the drain plug to keep oil from pouring out all over my rear tire, tightening down/properly re-installing the throttle assembly and so on.

2talltim Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 (edited) Never dealt with them but I've heard good things about moto Ohio also. Edited October 12, 2016 by 2talltim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
what Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 Maybe I was just lucky enough to get ronny the intern on his first day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thompsonian Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 I was going to suggest Iron Pony as well. They *seem* to know their shizz, but I haven't had any experience with them other than the assembly of my FJR from the crate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't see your comment before I replied. I'm just going off of my buddy that takes his BMW there all the time and has for years. Maybe they have different techs for different brands.

SFDemo Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 I'm interested to know also. I didn't have a good experience at Moto Ohio when I asked about getting a second key. They couldn't tell me how much it would cost or how long it would take to program the chip key (somewhere $50-75 for the service, plus the key price). I'm not sure what they expect, roulette payment, whatever pops up? I would expect someone at an established dealership to be able to articulate what it takes, or at least attempt to find out. The parts guy also didn't seem to know about the key code tag. No warm and fuzzy for me there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScubaCinci Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 Cadre Cycle in Blue Ash has been great and gets a lot of positive word of mouth from locals. Might be a bit far for you. They are a Moto Guzzi dealer and do a lot of euro bike work including BMW (most of them worked at the BMW dealer that used to be in Cinci).

Interesting. Did you complain? I've had a few things done there, and ordered a few parts. The only complaint I've had was the price. Dealer pricing is stupid.

ludwb675 Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 It's far from you but i would not recommend Northern Ohio Ducati. First issue was i had them quote changing tires and they told me $40/each. I had the bike in for the R/R recall already so i said go ahead. Once it was done they charged me $80/each cause the wheels were on the bike. They also charged me to resafety wire the wheels back on which i never asked for. They basically said o-well, pay up. I had them to the R/R recall on both my bikes. The track bike has no key, just thumb switch. They helped push the bike onto the trailer so i never started it at the dealership. That was my mistake. When i got home, flipped the switch to start and nothing. No dash lights, no fuel pump, nothing. Took awhile to find out the main line fuse was blown. Not sure how they blew it. But that means they never started after the R/R switch or somehow blew it after the new R/R was in. Either way, someone knew it wouldn't start. Probably why they were so happy to help me push it onto the trailer. I called back once i was home and since i already left the dealership it was my problem. I switched the fuse and started right up so i just left it at that and decided they will no longer get my business. Not worth fighting over it since it was a recall. No money out my pocket other than a fuse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that site because you can shop per the exploded diagrams down to the nut or bolt. And the stuff comes in nicely sealed OEM packaging. Edit: Like I thought ahead and bought a bunch of crush washers a new drain bolt and some other shit for the next round of maintenance.

Had already ridden the bike home before I noticed the bad oil leak and throttle fuckery, figured they would just blame me at that point so I didn't bother calling back.

I do my own work, so maybe I'm not qualified to call B.S. ...but man!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacobhawkins Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 Have you called they guys at Triumph of Cinci? Mark the manager is a cool guy.

ScubaCinci Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 (edited) Yep, there sure is but I've never been there. It's about 15 mins from my house. To follow up on my recommendation for Cadre Cycle...I had heard a great many things about them but had never gone there until recently. I just had my throttle bodies synched there - cost me $23. I was shocked...I would've thought it be at least $50. I bet if I brought to a regular dealer they would've hit me with a $75 minimum. When I expressed how surprised I was at the cost the guy told me, "We're an honest shop. If it only takes us 15 minutes to do something, that's all we charge". I'll totally be going back there from now on...the best part is it's located 1.6 miles from my house so I walked home after dropping it off and walked up there to pick it up.

ScubaCinci Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 It's pretty simple on the Tenere if you have the right tool...I know it's a major PITA for a lot of bikes but some have a pretty long service interval which helps. It's every 6K on the Tenere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mello dude Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 (edited) Joe's is the only Dayton area Triumph dealer I know of. Can't say I have experience with them - I never will let a dealer or anybody other than me work on my rides.
