Lrigh1977 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Good evening all,I recently brought a bike after years away from riding, a Triumph Tiger 800 2014. I need to start thinking about the 12000miles service. Has anyone any recommendations for mechanics in the Swindon / Wiltshire area? Given the age I’m not precious about using a main dealer (to keep cost down) unless there’s a specific reason I should? Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikestrivens Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 No help whatsoever as I don’t know your area but I’ve booked my 2015 Tiger 800 in to Youles in two weeks for exactly the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lrigh1977 Posted August 24, 2018 Author Share Posted August 24, 2018 Thanks all,£500 is the best quote I’ve had so far, I can just about add fuel &a or pressure so best not attempt any servicing myself Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tango Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Muddy Sump has started taking bookings again.......but you'd need to see when he is next in your area.I was going to suggest Clive Wood too.....but he's in Lincolnshire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slowlycatchymonkey Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Who is Muddy Sump?The day after my little 125s first service the exhaust fell off so I decided not to go back there and went to a recommended guy down the back of the back of some shoddy looking units. He seemed like one of those quiet considered types who might do a proper job (Im told he does) blow me down he did the service for £53!! Bet that doesn’t happen with my next bike!Forgot to take my book to get stamped though- doh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
