Sorry to hear about your miss fortune in my fair state. Frank's Motorcycle Sales is were I purchased my 2004 Speedmaster. Frank's is primarily a BMW dealer but he does sale a number of Triumphs. I've only had my bike in for service twice, 500 mile break-in and 6000 mile. Both times were scheduled and I was able to leave it over a few days. I prefer to turn my own wrench when I can. Lester Pelkey the owner is fair but sometime he comes off a little gruff. Typical Vermont some might say. Jeanette his wife is a sweet heart and Dave Bombardier, the sales manager is very personable. I usually talk to one of those two when I call. As you found out Lester doesn't stock a whole lot of spare parts. I have only heard of a rare occurrence where he took a part off a floor model. But Lester is the only BMW/Triumph dealer in the state so he runs his business as he pleases. I will most likely buy my next bike from him, a BMW RT, because he is local. Bottom line he is very knowledgeable on his brands and is fair. I am told he has a fine motorcycle collection. People tell me they have been trying to get Lester to put it display for years with no success. You might have seen a couple if you looked above their stock room / rest room. My buddy who bought his first BMW almost 30 yrs ago from Frank's says don't Lester stature fool you he is a very skilled rider and rides almost anything.

I hope you have your scoot back soon. Every time I order parts it usually take at least a week.
