| brewdude's Full Review: 2002 Triumph Bonneville |
I bought this bike back in April 2002 after a test ride in Daytona. I only have put on 6000 miles on it since it has been in the shop for a total of 4 weeks. I love the way it handles since we live in the mountains of NC. I have ridden the Dragons Tail and kept up with some fast company. The looks and feel of the bike are spot on. The problems could be solved if Triumph would watch their dealers. Very poor follow up and poor service work. Triumph claims they have no pressure that makes sure their dealers do the work right. I bought my bike from Kingsport Suzuki Kawasaki KTM Indian triumph located in Kingsport TN. If Triumph gets there act together they would have a win/win situation! I know of several that have bought from other dealers and they are very happy! I really enjoy the bike and have changed my ratings. Be careful to make sure you are buying from a reliable dealer. I didn't check my dealer out, if I had I would of still bought the Triumph from another dealer.
