Quote: Ward, give Ridge Motorsports in Batesburg, SC a shout. If you're talking Charlotte, then they are about an hour and a half south (maybe 2) near Columbia, SC. I had them rebuild my bike there, and they went WAY out of the way there for me on a simple warranty speedo replacement (where my own dealer in Greenville, SC wouldn't do SQUAT for me!!! And, the couple times I've been there, they always seemed to have a pretty nice selection of Triumphs, most of their showroom was Triumph. It's certainly off the beaten path, but worth the drive I'd say! Oh, I should point out that prior to them helping me out, I had never even spoke to them before! A nice family run small dealership, not a glamour shop!
Ward, I could not agree more with Greg. The guys at Ridge are great. You must be somewhere near me, I am in Rock Hill. It is probably 20 minutes to the Charlotte dealer, but I much prefer to drive the backroads down to Batesburg. Very friendly, and reasonable on everything. I have sent two other people down there to buy bikes.
Their shop is in a building that resembles a quonset hut, and the place is simply laid back. Give them a try if you are in our area.
