Yesterday I had 500 miles service done, so I had Rockwell Motorcycles
Ft Montgomery NY (914) 446-3834 also installed my race can, cowling &
tank bag.  They did have a technican in training do the work, but it
was simple stuff and they do great work.  They also have a red 99
Sprint on the showroom floor.  What a sweet sound from the new pipes.

**Tim,
**
**I didn't give my dealer the option of installing my bags. Simply put
I
**have been burned in the past and I dont trust any shop.  From my
**experience the simple stuff like putting on panniers etc, a true
**technician doesn't do the work but some young punk out of high
school or
**wana be technician does the work. They dont seem to take pride in
their
**work.  For example I had to take my previous bike in for some repair
due
**to a crash. Well when I got my bike back I found that they had used
**screws and bolts from their parts bin to put it back together. This
was
**evident form the rust on the bolts, where I didn't have any rust.
They
**also mismatched screws etc.  If I can do the work myself I will. 
One, I
**know it will be done right, secondly I get to know my bike better
and
**lastly I have a good excuse to buy more tools.

**There's one thing that's really bugging me - I'm dying to know
**why, whenever you all buy stuff from your Triumph dealer,
**presumably for a new Sprint, you have to put the stuff on
**yourselves?
